After you file

Your tax notice from the IRS will have information regarding the bill.  Read your notice carefully.  The IRS is not always right.  There should also be a contact telephone number within your notice to contact the IRS directly.

Review your notice to see if you agree or disagree with the IRS' assessment.  If you disagree, the notice will tell you how to respond and give you a specific deadline (which you definitely want to meet) for response.  You will need documentation to support your position.

If you, after reviewing the notice, agree with the IRS, pay the tax due as soon as possible.  

I'm including a link to a TurboTax webpage that may help you better understand your notice, as well.
