To best understand your 4883C Letter, you should know that you are not in any form of trouble with the IRS. In order to be a recipient of a 4883C Letter, the IRS must have located small errors or questionable information on your return. They want to be absolutely sure that it was you who filed your return and not someone who may have stolen your identity.

Most of the time when you receive a letter from the IRS, it’s because you owe money or the refund you received was too large or too small. However, IRS Letter 4883C isn’t designed to deliver any bad news; instead, this letter is simply the IRS’s way of letting you know they need to talk to you.

Generally, the IRS will send you a Letter 4883C because there was some sort of problem with your tax return. This problem is typically minor and doesn’t greatly affect the outcome of your tax return.
