Previously Printed IRS Balance Due Notices Will Include Insert with Extended Due Dates

IRS issued the following statement on Monday (6/8/2020) regarding balance due notices. You can find a list of the notices involved with the mailing below the statement. See the IRS Operations During COVID-19: Mission-critical functions continue page for the latest updates on IRS operations.

Balance Due Notice Mailings: Due Dates Extended to Help Taxpayers

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the IRS was unable to mail some previously printed balance due notices as a result of office closures. As IRS operations continue to reopen, these notices will be delivered to taxpayers in the next few weeks. Given the time it would take to reprogram IRS systems, and generate updated notices, some of the notices taxpayers will receive have due dates that have already passed. However, each notice will include an insert confirming that the due dates printed on the notices have been extended.

Extended Payment Due Dates: The payment due dates printed on the notices have been extended, as described in the insert. The new payment due date will be either July 10, 2020, or July 15, 2020, depending upon the type of tax return and original due date. Taxpayers should be sure to read the insert included with the notice that explains the delay and provides the correct payment due dates.

Taxpayers who have questions about their balance due should visit the website listed or call the number provided on their notice; however, keep in mind that phone lines remain extremely busy as the IRS resumes operations.
