It's here: Form 1099-K business income matching
Know what to do when your clients receive one of the IRS’ four new business income underreporting letters
However, the IRS is attaching Publication 3498-A, The Examination Process (Examinations by Mail), to most of the letters. This indicates that the IRS intends to assess additional tax using deficiency procedures – similar to how the IRS assesses tax in CP2000 individual underreporter inquires and audits.
IRS underreporter inquiries and audits can be time-consuming, even by IRS estimates. Responding to the IRS using best practices saves time for you and your client. See how Beyond415 guidance and workflow products can help your firm use best practices in post-filing compliance work to address emerging IRS initiatives, including business underreporter inquiries and audits.
