Can an accountant help with an IRS notice?
Short answer
Yes, an accountant can help with an IRS notice by reviewing your account transcripts, explaining what the notice means, and drafting a response before the deadline. CPAs, enrolled agents, and tax attorneys can represent you directly using Form 2848. Most notices, like a CP2000, give you about 30 days to respond.
Send us a photo of the notice and we will tell you what it means.
