Received a CP3219A Notice from the IRS? Here's What You Need to Know

The CP3219A notice, also referred to as a "Notice of Deficiency," is sent by the IRS when they believe you owe more taxes than what you reported on your tax return. If you’ve received this notice, it’s critical to address it promptly to avoid further complications, such as the IRS assessing additional taxes without your input.

What the CP3219A Notice Means:

  • Income Discrepancy: The IRS has identified a difference between the income you reported on your tax return and the information they have on file. This could stem from unreported income, incorrect deductions, or other errors.

  • IRS Proposal: The notice outlines the IRS's proposed changes to your tax return, including the additional tax they believe you owe.

  • Time-Sensitive: You have 90 days from the date of the notice to respond or file a petition with the U.S. Tax Court. If you don’t act within this timeframe, the IRS will assess the additional tax and you will lose the right to challenge it in court.

Steps to Take When You Receive a CP3219A:

  1. Review the Notice Carefully: Examine the details in the notice to understand what changes the IRS is proposing. Compare it with your original tax return to determine whether the IRS’s changes are accurate.

  2. Gather Documentation: If you disagree with the IRS’s proposed changes, collect supporting documents to verify your original return. This could include bank statements, receipts, or other proof of income and deductions.

  3. Respond Promptly: You have two options: agree with the IRS’s proposed changes and pay the amount due or dispute them. If you agree, you can pay the balance or set up a payment plan. If you disagree, you must submit Form 5564 or file a petition with the U.S. Tax Court within 90 days.

Why You Should Seek Professional Help:

Navigating a CP3219A notice can be stressful and complex, especially when the proposed changes are significant. This is where professional assistance can make all the difference.
