After you file

@vickyc1   To dispute the IRS adjustment you must respond in writing.

Start your letter with "I dispute your adjustment of <date>". and any reference numbers.

Actually, the IRS letter should tell you what to do.

 

It would help a lot to present all your evidence and/or documentation as well.

IRS is way behind on processing paper correspondence.

 

There is no need to get through on the telephone.
