Why would I get a letter from the IRS in Fresno, California?

Most IRS letters and notices are about federal tax returns or tax accounts. Each notice deals with a specific issue and includes any steps the taxpayer needs to take. A notice may reference changes to a taxpayers account, taxes owed, a payment request or a specific issue on a tax return.

What triggers the IRS to audit you?

One of the most common IRS audit triggers is income thats missing from your tax return. Nearly all incomeincluding wages, capital gains, dividends, interest, or miscellaneous incomemust be reported. Other sources may report this information about you to the IRS, raising a red flag if your tax return doesnt match.

Why is the IRS holding my refund because of child tax credit?

Why we hold your refund. By law, we cant issue EITC or ACTC refunds before mid-February. This includes your entire refund, not just the part thats related to the credit you claimed on your tax return. If you claim the EITC or ACTC, we may need more information from you about your return.
