What You'll Get
A plain-English summary of what an IRS notice is about, what it requires, by when, and what the client's options are — so you can respond quickly without spending 30 minutes reading government language.
The Prompt
Copy and paste this
Summarize this IRS notice for me: [paste the full text of the notice — remove any personally identifiable info like names and SSNs first]. What does it require? What is the deadline? What are the client's options for responding? Flag anything time-sensitive.
Tips
Remove names and SSNs before pasting the notice text. Always verify the deadline and notice type yourself before advising the client — this is a triage tool, not a final answer.
