This is kind of a vague question. If you are required to fill out IRS Form 1098, then you send it in. You can paper file or electronically file your data with the IRS.
Certified mail can be tracked, you can prove without a doubt when and where and to whom it was sent. That way if they send someone mail regarding their taxes, the person cannot get away with lying, saying they did not receive it. Especially when dealing with IRS Collections, there are certain notices that the IRS must send to a Taxpayer before they can start getting aggressive (garnishing wages, levying bank accounts, seizing assets). It is important that the IRS be able to prove that they sent these notices in case the Taxpayer later wants to claim that their rights were violated. The IRS is required by law to send taxpayers correspondence by way of certified mail when it come to collection matters. This is necessary in order for the IRS to fullfil what the IRS calls "Due Process of Collection." When a taxpayer is in collections the IRS, by law, must send notification of collection to make the taxpayer aware of their liability as well as their right to cure the situation. Once the IRS has sent all necessary notifications, and the taxpayer has not appealed the final notification then the IRS is free to exercise their full authority to collect what they state they are owed. This usually results in wage levies, bank levies and tax liens. It may be advisable to contact a tax resolution specialist if this occurs.
If you file a return on paper, you may be tempted to just drop your tax return in the mail. However, if you send your return by regular mail, you can't be assured that it was received by the IRS, so consider using Registered or Certified Mail to file your tax returns. Not only can you easily trace your mail using these methods, the IRS considers registered or certified mail the best evidence that your return was timely filed. If you opt for U.S. Mail, note that the IRS has changed the filing location for several areas, so double check where to send your return by reading the instructions on your tax form.
how do i find out what address the irs has on file for me.
If you have taken grocery bills off on your taxes, the IRS could ask for receipts. People may take deductions on business expenses for groceries purchased for a business lunch or dinner.
The IRS would levy a bank account if the bank account holder had not paid his or her taxes. However, the IRS wouldn't do this unless they had exhausted all other means to collect. They would first send the taxpayer a notice that taxes had been assessed and demand payment. It the taxpayer ignored this notice the IRS would send another notice letting the taxpayer know it was their intention to levy his or her bank account, or other property. This would be sent 30 days before they actually levied the account. Don't ignore letters from the IRS!!
Not Much ! But Great Benefits !
