What to Expect
Before a Coast representative calls to help resolve your overdue taxes, you will receive two letters:- Notice CP40 and Publication 4518 from the IRS. These documents let you know that your overdue tax account was assigned to a private collection agency, and
- A letter from Coast, with instructions on how to resolve your debt.
Throughout the debt resolution process, letters and phone calls will be the only ways we reach out to taxpayers. During each phone call, the representative will identify him or herself as a Coast employee working on behalf of the IRS and take you through the authentication process to verify your identity. Private collection agencies such as Coast working on behalf of the IRS will not contact you via email or text.
