Find your letter

Open the IRS Letters and Forms library and look up the number printed on your letter, such as CP2000, LT11 or Letter 147C.

The three letters people ask about most

  • CP2000: the IRS thinks income on your return doesn't match what payers reported.
  • CP14: a balance is due on your account.
  • LT11: the IRS intends to levy if the balance isn't resolved.
