IRS Notices and Delay in the IRS Processing Payments

IRS LogoAccording to the IRS website they are currently resource limited due to the pandemic. This has caused a delay in processing of the IRS payments. However the majority of IRS notices are automatically computer generated and therefore still being mailed out. Please be aware if you receive a notice that it might be a timing issue due to this delay.

We have included a few links below to articles discussing the issue. If you have any questions or receive an IRS notice please forward the notice or give us a call to discuss.
