What does an IRS CP2006 notice mean?

A CP2006 acknowledges that the IRS received the information you sent in response to an underreporter notice (CP2000 or CP2501) and is reviewing it. It is an interim notice that does not yet announce a decision; the IRS will follow up once its review is complete.

Why did you receive a CP2006?

You replied to an underreporter inquiry, and the IRS is confirming receipt while it evaluates your documentation or explanation.

How to respond to a CP2006 notice

No immediate action is required. Keep copies of everything you submitted and watch for the IRS's follow-up determination, which may close the case (CP2005) or propose further changes.

What happens if you ignore it?

Nothing negative happens from this notice alone, but stay alert for the IRS's final decision so you can respond if it proposes changes.

Common resolutions

  • No action needed
  • Keep records available
