In Reply to: The IRS is knocking from 1980 with form 2050 ??? posted by Rick on November 07, 1997 at 22:13:20:
: Does anyone have an opinion as to what a form 2050 from the IRS means.?
: The form suggest that I phone them to discuss supposed taxes owed from 1980 & 1996.
: This is an unsigned letter by an M.Brown (upper and lower case letters in name)
: to me, where they used all upper case letters in my name. They claim
: that they sent letters (A LIE) to me and since I never responded to
: them they say they have sent my file over to collections. They say I must
: contact them within ten days with payment in full (NO AMOUNT MENTIONED)
: or call their office and have a chat with them. I guess what I would like
: to know is what the heck is an IRS letter 2050 (REV 9-92) that has real carbon

Rick,
I just got a 2050 letter myself today for '92, 93, 95 and 96. Same type letter saying that I had not responded to their "previous notices: (I never got one!). I'm in a panic. I've got a call into my CPA. Today being Sunday, I'm going to worry all night until I talk to someone. What has happened in your situation??!! My letter is from the "Automate Collection Branch". Was yours also from this branch?
