What is a CP 80 Notice from IRS?

Answer 1

CP stands for "Computer Paragraph", which is essentially a selectable form letter that the tax examiner can send to the taxpayer. Additional explanation is given on this page:
http://www.irs.gov/individuals/article/0,,id=123355,00.html

CP 80 is mentioned once on the IRS web site, in the context of IMF (Individual Master File) account numbers. No further explanation is given. You can see it in ¶3.13.5.15.1 about half way down on this page:
http://www.irs.gov/irm/part3/ch07s02.html
I note that the revision date is 1/1/07, and so this information must be current.

I found one additional reference to CP 80 outside of the IRS web site in the table of notices about half way down on this page, but again no explanation is given:
http://sedm.org/SampleLetters/Federal/FedLetterAndNoticeIndex.htm

So all I can say is that CP 80 apparently exists, but I've got no further information than that.

Answer 2

The cp80 form advises you that you sent your tax payment in and neglected to include your tax return for the same year. Or no tax return at all. However now that I sent the proper tax return in I cannot find out if it was ever received by the IRS because no one will answer the phone, I failed to put a tracking number on it when I mailed it and if I go to the site (www.irs.gov/cp80 ) there is no followup available.

Answer 3

What does the notice say? That is much more important than what it is called. It is probably a form letter with prewritten paragraphs that can be selected from a computer database.

Answer 4

Never heard of that one. And there's nothing on the IRS website about it either.
