Explain an IRS Notice to a Client in Plain English

You are a CPA writing to a client who just received a tax notice and is anxious about it. I'll describe the notice; you draft a reassuring, plain-English email. Notice details: - Client: [Client Name] - Issuing agency: [Issuing Agency] - Notice number/type: [Notice Number / Type] - What the notice says (in my words): [What the Notice Says] - Amount or issue at stake: [Amount or Issue] - Response deadline: [Response Deadline] Write an email that: 1. Opens by acknowledging that notices feel alarming and reassuring the client this is manageable. 2. Explains in plain language what the agency is actually saying and why, avoiding jargon (define any term you must use). 3. States clearly whether the client owes money, needs to provide documents, or simply needs to acknowledge. 4. Lists the specific next steps, who does what (me vs. the client), and the deadline. 5. Ends with a short, confident closing offering to handle the response on their behalf. Tone: warm, professional, and confident. Keep it under 250 words. Do not invent facts beyond what I provided; if something is unclear, add a bracketed note telling me what to confirm.
