      What you should do?

      Read the Summary of Contact carefully. The Summary explains what documentation/information is being requested with due dates. Collect the information and documentation requested and provide it to the Revenue Officer by the date listed.

      In our Summary example, the Revenue Officer has requested the Information/Documentation by August 28, 2013. The Revenue Officer’s contact number and fax number will be provided at the bottom of the Summary.

      Hire a tax professional if you don’t have a strategy to resolve your taxes. A tax professional experienced in tax resolution better understands your rights as a taxpayer and is better at negotiating with IRS Revenue Officers. The tax professional will work directly with the IRS on your behalf. You will not have to talk to the IRS Revenue Officer.

      What can you expect next?

      If you provide the Information/Documentation by the date required, the Revenue Officer will review the documentation. Allow the IRS 30 to 90 days to follow up on the information provided. The IRS will recommend resolution based on the information provided.

      Failure to comply with the IRS Revenue Officer’s request for documentation will result in collection enforcement action such as filing Federal Tax Liens and/or Tax Levies on your wages, bank accounts, state & federal tax refunds, etc.

      IRS letter 9297 is considered a tax bill. The IRS asks that you pay the balance due in full. You do have options.
