From scary letter to closed case.

We handle the correspondence, the documentation, and the follow-up so you can stop losing sleep over an envelope.

CP2000 & Underreporting Notices

We verify the IRS math, add missing cost basis and deductions, and dispute what's wrong.

Balance Due Notices (CP14, CP501)

Confirm the balance is accurate before you pay a dollar of it.

IRS Payment Plans

Short-term extensions, installment agreements, and realistic guidance on hardship status.

Penalty Abatement

First-time abatement and reasonable-cause requests filed in writing with support.

Audit Representation

Correspondence and office audit support — we organize records and talk to the examiner.

Amended Returns (1040-X)

Correct prior-year errors, add missed credits, and recover refunds still within the window.

Unfiled & Late Returns

Catch up on back years and get compliant before enforcement escalates.

Identity Verification Letters

5071C and similar notices resolved so your refund can finally be released.

How It Works

Four steps to resolution.

01

Send Us the Letter

Upload the notice securely — every page, including the back — or bring it to the office.

02

We Decode It

You get a plain-English explanation of what the IRS wants and what's actually at stake.

03

We Respond

We prepare the written response, supporting records, and any amended return required.

04

We Follow Through

We track the IRS reply, confirm the adjustment, and set up payment terms if a balance remains.

Why Zaki Enterprise

You shouldn't answer the IRS alone.

Deadline Protection

We calendar your response date immediately — missing it can cost your appeal rights.

We Verify Before You Pay

Automated notices are often overstated. Many clients owe far less than the letter claims.

Written, Documented Responses

Phone calls disappear. We answer in writing with a paper trail.

Penalty Relief Experience

We know which relief programs you may qualify for and how to request them properly.

Confidential Handling

Your notice and records stay in an encrypted client vault, never in email threads.

Calm, Judgment-Free Help

Unfiled years or a large balance? We've seen it. We start from where you are.

FAQ

Good questions.

I got a letter from the IRS. What should I do first?+

Don't ignore it and don't pay it blindly. Most notices have a response deadline printed on page one. Send us a copy — we'll tell you what it actually means and whether the IRS is correct before anything is paid or signed.

What is a CP2000 notice?+

A CP2000 is an automated proposed change, usually because income reported to the IRS doesn't match your return. It is a proposal, not a bill — and it is frequently wrong or overstated because it ignores your cost basis and deductions.

Can you set up an IRS payment plan?+

Yes. Depending on your balance and situation we can help request short-term extensions, installment agreements, or currently-not-collectible status, and explain when an Offer in Compromise is realistic.

Can penalties be removed?+

Sometimes. First-time abatement and reasonable-cause relief can remove failure-to-file and failure-to-pay penalties for qualifying taxpayers. We request it in writing with supporting documentation.

What happens if I'm being audited?+

We review the audit scope, gather and organize the documentation, and correspond with the examiner. Most audits are correspondence audits handled entirely by mail.

Can you amend a return I filed somewhere else?+

Yes. We can amend prior-year returns prepared by anyone — including self-prepared returns — to correct errors, add missed deductions, or reflect corrected tax documents.

How fast do I need to respond?+

Most notices give 30 days; some collection notices give less. Deadlines matter because missing one can forfeit your appeal rights, so contact us as soon as the letter arrives.

Do you handle state tax notices too?+

Yes. We respond to state comptroller and department of revenue notices in the states we serve, in addition to IRS correspondence.
