Generally, the answer is to enter the information as it appears on the letter. However, if your numbers are definitely incorrect and are causing you to enter twice as much as you actually received, you will need to call the number on the letter and speak with the IRS to fix it. The number is 800-908-4184.
If you are sure it is incorrect, you should hold off on filing your tax return until you speak to them and get an updated corrected amount or a correct amount in the portal.
