What does Notice CP90 mean?

CP90 is a final notice of the IRS's intent to levy your assets and a notice of your right to a hearing. Like LT11, it triggers a 30-day deadline to request a CDP hearing, which is a powerful protection.

Why did I get it?

The IRS issues Notice CP90 when its records show a specific condition on your account. The notice itself states the amount, the tax year, and the date the IRS is working from. If any of that looks wrong, it often is worth challenging, and confirming the details is the first thing we do.

What happens if I ignore it?

If you do nothing, the IRS can proceed to levy your wages, bank accounts, or other property, and you may lose valuable appeal rights that expire with the deadline. Every notice has a response window, and the options are widest before it closes.

What to do after Notice CP90

Three steps, whether you handle it yourself or have us step in.

01

Do not miss the deadline

Notice CP90 carries a response date: You have 30 days to request a hearing. Mark it, because the IRS's next step is usually more serious.

02

Confirm the details

The IRS is sometimes wrong. We pull your transcripts and verify whether the amount and the basis for the notice are correct before responding.

03

Request the hearing within 30 days. It stops the levy and preserves your appeal rights. We respond on your behalf and take the deadline pressure off you.
