The CP71a notice from the IRS might seem like just another annual reminder, but it’s more than that.
While this notice informs you of your outstanding balance, it also serves as a warning that the IRS is ready to take more aggressive action if you don’t address your tax debt. If left unresolved, the consequences can be severe—ranging from additional penalties and interest to liens, levies, and even wage garnishments.
The time to act is now.
What Can Happen Next?
If you ignore the CP71a notice, the IRS won’t hesitate to escalate their collection efforts. They could:
- File a Federal Tax Lien: This is a legal claim against your property, including your home and other assets, which can severely impact your credit rating.
- Issue a Levy: The IRS could start taking money directly from your bank account, wages, or other sources of income.
- Garnish Your Wages: The IRS has the power to take a portion of your paycheck until your debt is satisfied, making it difficult to meet your basic living expenses.
The IRS won’t wait forever. They’re prepared to take these steps if you don’t take action soon. But you don’t have to face this alone.
