Incorrect CP14 Notice for Balance Due on Taxes

The IRS recently released a news bulletin about incorrect CP14 balance due notices sent to married filing joint (NFJ) taxpayers. The notice is generated when married filing joint taxpayers made estimated payments that were NOT correctly applied to the joint account.

So why does this happen?

This issue has existed for years, so this is nothing new. Under some circumstances, if the "Spouse" on a Form 1040 makes an estimated payment using their name and SSN, the IRS will cash the check, but not apply the payments to their Joint account. Once the tax return is filed, the IRS issues a balance due notice (CP14) because of incorrectly claimed estimated payments.

If you received this notice and you know you made the payments, the IRS advises to not call or write in response to the letter. They assure taxpayers they will correct the problem....
