What is a CP2000 Notice, and Why Did You Receive It?
Have you received a CP2000 notice from the IRS? Don’t panic — this video will explain what it means and what you must do next. A CP2000 notice isn’t an audit, but it’s a formal notification from the IRS about discrepancies between the income or payment information on your tax return and the information reported to the IRS by third parties, like employers, banks, or other financial institutions.
In this video, we’ll cover:
What is a CP2000 Notice? A CP2000 is sent when the IRS finds differences between the income or deductions reported on your tax return and those reported by third-party sources. This could include W-2s, 1099s, or other tax documents.
Why Did You Receive It? Common reasons include unreported income, incorrect deductions, or errors in tax filings. For example, if you forgot to include a 1099 from a contractor job or there was a mistake in your reporting, the IRS will flag it.
What Should You Do? The notice will outline any proposed changes to your tax return, including additional taxes, penalties, or interest. You can agree with the changes, dispute the notice, or provide additional documentation. Acting quickly is crucial to avoid further penalties.
By the end of this video, you’ll know how to handle a CP2000 notice confidently and get back on track with your taxes.
