IRS's Web Page for Payroll Reps

This Notice Web site was created to assist payroll representatives and practitioners who receive taxpayer inquiries about IRS notices to easily view samples of the text in the notices without waiting to see hard copies. Since tax professionals will be the primary users of this tool, the site is located on the Tax Professionals page of the IRS website here.
