Notice Desk

For CPA firms · runs in your browser

Your client got an IRS letter. Here's the deadline, the client email and the response, drafted.

Pick the notice, enter the dates printed on it, and say where your client stands. VALID lays out the deadline, what the IRS says the notice means, a plain-English email for your client, a response letter, and what to attach. Your licensed staff review, change and sign. Nothing you enter leaves this page.

The notice

Not in this list? Look it up in the Notice Library: every IRS notice and letter the IRS explains on irs.gov, in its own words.

Where your client stands

No client names, Social Security numbers, amounts or documents. The drafts keep [brackets] for you to fill in your own system.

What Notice Desk will not do

  • It will not read the letter. You pick the notice and type the dates; nothing is uploaded.
  • It will not decide for your client or contact the IRS. Your licensed staff choose the position, edit, and sign.
  • It will not compute what your client owes. The amounts are on the notice, and they stay in your own system.
  • It will not store what you type. The only thing kept on this device is a count of notices drafted, for the Time back meter.
  • The notice templates have not yet been reviewed by a licensed CPA. They are drafts for a professional to check.
