Got an IRS Notice?
Here's What to Do Next.
Don't panic. Don't ignore it. Most IRS notices are routine — but the deadlines are real. Get our free Notice Decoder and find out exactly what to do next.
- Plain-English notice translation — what your letter actually says.
- Your deadline — how many days you have to respond, and what happens if you miss it.
- Exact next steps — what to do, in what order, with no fluff.
Most People Don't Open the Second Envelope.
You see the IRS letter and your stomach drops. You set it aside, telling yourself you'll deal with it later. By the time you actually open it, the 30-day clock is already ticking.
Here's what most people don't realize: IRS notices are usually procedural. Most can be resolved with a simple response. But miss the deadline, and your options narrow fast — penalties stack, interest compounds, and the IRS escalates.
The goal of the Notice Decoder isn't to scare you. It's to tell you exactly what your notice means, what your deadline is, and what to do next. In plain English. With our guide.

What clients say
"I got a CP2000 and ignored it for two weeks because I didn't know what it meant. Nischay's team decoded it in 24 hours — turned out the IRS had double-counted a 1099. Resolved it with one letter, no penalty."
"I'd been getting IRS letters for months and was terrified. Nischay walked me through every notice, set up an installment agreement, and got my penalties abated. I went from panic to a clear plan in one week."
"The decoder told me exactly what my LT11 meant and that I had 30 days to respond. Other firms wanted to charge me $500 to tell me the same thing. Free, fast, and actually useful."
