March 3, 201511 yr From what I gather very , very few people that receive this notice actually qualify for the refund.
March 3, 201511 yr Author I don't think I would qualify because of my income. Should I take it to my accountant and let him deal with it or should I contact the IRS office and ask them about it?
March 3, 201511 yr That's a legit form number and IRS center although I thought KY notices went thru Austin TX. Thats what I was thinking KY returns go to Texas. Made me suspicious, however I dont deal with EIC to often.
March 3, 201511 yr I don't think I would qualify because of my income. Should I take it to my accountant and let him deal with it or should I contact the IRS office and ask them about it? Good luck calling the IRS, I spend 1 hour and 45 minutes the other day on hold till I finally go through, and that was for a 990 Return and I had a backdoor number to get to where I need to go. Ask your accountant would be a good move, it sounds legit, but the coming from CA thing is making me question it a bit.
March 3, 201511 yr Author I'll ask them tomorrow and see what they think. I wouldn't bother with it, but it is up in the 5 figures area...so it's worth the effort just in case.
March 3, 201511 yr AGI must be under $43,756 if you have 2 children. Also must have investment income under $3,350. I'd take it to your accountant to be safe.
March 3, 201511 yr I'll ask them tomorrow and see what they think. I wouldn't bother with it, but it is up in the 5 figures area...so it's worth the effort just in case. Makes me wonder...The max credit is $5,460 for two qualifying children.
March 3, 201511 yr Author I make more money that and it's for more than $6,000. I'm beginning to wonder
March 3, 201511 yr Does it give a phone number that you can call about the notice? If it's a scam, it would be a scam phone #. Probably worth the time to call the IRS.

Budget gets tighter and tighter and the services get lighter and lighter.
