A default notice should be reviewed quickly to identify the missed requirement and reinstatement options.
The IRS may issue CP523 or CP623 when an installment agreement defaults or is proposed for termination. Common causes include missed payments, new balances, or unfiled returns.
Kansas City residents should verify the default reason, deadline, and amount needed to cure the problem before collection resumes.
Key points for Kansas City, Missouri taxpayers
- Identify the default: payment, filing, or new-balance problems require different fixes.
- Respond before termination: notice deadlines matter.
- Correct current compliance: reinstatement may require all returns and current taxes.
Request reinstatement or modification
A taxpayer may be able to cure the default, reinstate the agreement, or request a revised amount based on changed finances.
Updated financial information and fees may apply. Do not agree to the same unaffordable amount without reviewing the budget.
Prevent another default
Use automatic payment when appropriate, track filing deadlines, and adjust withholding.
