Does the IRS Really Make Unannounced Visits to Taxpayer's Homes?

The IRS initiates most contacts through regular mail delivered by the United States Postal Service. However, there are circumstances in which the IRS will call or come to a home or business

 Some reasons may be:

  • A taxpayer has an overdue tax bill
  • To secure a delinquent tax return or a delinquent employment tax payment
  • To tour a business as part of an audit
  • During criminal investigations

Even then, taxpayers will generally first receive several notices from the IRS in the mail.
