Receiving a CP523 Notice is a serious warning. It means the IRS plans to terminate your Installment Agreement because of default—often due to a missed payment, unfiled return, or new balance owed. Once defaulted, the IRS can move quickly to levy your wages or bank account. For Chicago taxpayers, this can be devastating.

Why You Received a CP523 Notice

• Missed one or more monthly payments.
  
  

• New tax balance added to your account.
  
  

• Failure to file required returns.
  
  

• Errors or under-withholding leading to new debt.
  
  

Steps to Take Immediately

1. Read the notice carefully and note the deadline.
   
   

2. Cure the default by paying missed amounts or filing required returns.
   
   

3. Request reinstatement or modification of your payment plan.
   
   

4. Explore alternatives such as an Offer in Compromise or CNC status if reinstatement isn't possible.
