You need to review the notice and make sure whether you agree or disagree with the letter. CP2000 letters are sent when the IRS finds that there was a 1099, W2, or 1098 that they received which doesn't agree with the income or deductions reported on your return.
See the following from IRS - Understanding Your CP2000:
