Received IRS notice even after payment of taxes

Hello,

 

For the year 2020, I owed IRS money. My Tax consultant e-filed it but provided wrong account number. The payment was returned but I paid IRS through Direct Pay on April 30, 2021 and it was posted on May 3, 2021 (Tax deadline was May 15, 2021 due to COVID-19). I received confirmation and can still access it on IRS direct pay website using confirmation number

 

Today I received CP 501 notice stating that I need to pay penalty of ~$600 because I owed them money. I am not sure what is this penalty about? How should I proceed here? 

 

P.S. The notice date is July 5, 2021 (which is a week away from today)!! Could this be a scam? 

 

Thank you!

You should go back to your tax consultant and have the consultant respond to the IRS notice on your behalf.

go back to your consultant. this could be about an economic impact payment that the IRS records indicate you got but was not entered in your return.
