No, according to the IRS, the 4464C letter is the way the IRS notifies the taxpayer that they are verifying the taxpayer's income and income tax withholding. Additionally, the IRS states the following regarding letter 4464C:
"If you filed a return
- You don't need to take any action. Please do not call us until 60 days after the letter date and only if you haven't received your refund or heard from us by then.
- We recommend you review your return for any errors and file a corrected or amended return to correct the information."
You also mentioned that your W-2 contained an incorrect social security number. As long as your tax return contained the correct social security number (and there are no other changes you need to make on the return) then you do not need to file an amended return. You took corrective action by notifying your employer about the incorrect social security number as W-2s are filed with the IRS in addition to being sent to the employee.
So for now, if it has been less than 60 days from the date of the 4464C letter, you do not need to contact the IRS. After 60 days, you may want to contact the IRS to check on the status of their review of this matter.
