IRS Notice CP12T and phone number

LJS64 — Mon, 08 Jul 2019 20:48:09 GMT

First, can someone verify that the number on the letter I received from the IRS is a legit number. [phone number removed]. The IRS website does not refer to the 833 area code in the list for notices.

If this is a legit number for an IRS notice CP12T in reference to a miscalculation of taxable income. If the error is what I think it is, I think it is a TurboTax software issue. Do I contact the IRS or TurboTax first?

IF, the IRS has a legitimate calculation, and they have corrected the error, how do I proceed as I will then need to amend state returns?

Review the notice ... are they correct ?

If you got a notice from the IRS, don’t worry. We’ll do our best to help you figure out what to do next.

The CP12 notice means that the IRS made changes to correct a miscalculation on your return.

If you agree with the changes the IRS made—no response is required:

You should get a refund check in 4-6 weeks, as long as you don't owe other tax or debts.
Correct the copy of your tax return that you keep for your own records.

If you don't agree with the changes, contact the IRS within 60 days from the date of your notice. You can do this:

By phone—the number is on your notice and calling is the fastest way to resolve many errors.
By mail—include a copy of the notice and allow 30-60 or more days for a resolution.
