The IRS keeps sending notices that payments from 1040s and 1041s were late/not received and they’re assessing balance dues. I thought they were supposed to correct this error yet they still keep sending notices. Anyone have insight/what you’re doing on your clients?

Trying to avoid getting POAs for everybody and calling.

My MD here at a middle market firm has been simply sending letters and proof/supporting documentation. With the layoffs that happened, I foresee this error continuing into mid 2026.

That’s what i figured. So obnoxious.

My guess is that their system automatically generate some notices and the updates of payment info etc is not timely. Don’t worry. Just send the letters with proof back and wait. Don’t pay the bills.

Compliance question here, I have always thought of the SALT deduction on the fed return as a perm item & have treated as such in such sch M-3. I see that some people put it as a temp on sch M-3. What is the justification for treating it as a temp on the M-3. You don’t set up a deferred on the def RF for the state tax deduct & it is also a rate impacting item (I know that some temps can be rate impacting). But this all leaves me to side with perm. Does anyone know the logic behind temp treatment?

It’s hard to trust the partners/leadership when they want us to return to office as being better when we increase offshoring? Also, the pressure on billable hours when all that really matters is how much our fixed labor costs vs. how much we can bill (which is usually fixed fee or at least a range) and the fixed labor costs of offshoring is significantly cheaper so the hours don’t matter. Am I mistaken by this viewpoint?
