Respond to your tax notice
You received a notice from a state or local tax authority. Upload it, extract the key details, and prepare a documented response with your facts and supporting evidence.
What is a tax authority notice?
A tax authority notice is an official communication from a state or local tax agency — such as a state Department of Revenue, franchise tax board, or county assessor. It may notify you of a balance due, a filing requirement, an audit, a correction to your return, or a lien.
These notices have strict response deadlines, typically 30 days. Missing the deadline can result in automatic assessments, additional penalties, or collection actions. Each jurisdiction has its own appeal process, but all require a written response with supporting documentation.
Responding early gives you the opportunity to correct errors, request a payment plan, or contest the assessment before enforcement begins. Most tax agencies are willing to work with taxpayers who initiate contact promptly.
