Client dropped off IRS notice CP14 today, which states approximately $5,000 due. It is dated July 10th. Clients return was electronically filed on May 30th. Client mailed in the payment with the voucher for approximately $4,800. The check did not clear until June 23rd. The IRS noticed dated July 10th does not give them credit for the $4,800 payment. Plus they charged around $150 in interest / penalties, which is okay. Since the check cleared, do you think I should call them as the third party designee? Not sure if I will be able to get through. Or should I wait and let it work through the system and hope the IRS corrects it with a subsequent notice? Thanks

The computers spit out those notices on a set schedule, they don't know if a payment has been made in the past 30 days or not. If they paid, just disregard.

I explain it as the right hand automatically sends out the notices; the left had collects payments. And the right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing.
Just wait and it "should" all filter out correctly.

Great reason to pay electronically.

@Accountant-Man yeah I think you are right. Only drawback is it's one more thing that we are responsible for.

Since the pandemic in 2020 for 2019 returns, I encouraged my clients to pay electronically, either through the software or online themselves.
