Why you received IRS Notice\u00a0CP01A<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. You notified the IRS of your identity theft and an ID theft indicator was placed on your account.<\/li>\n
  2. The IRS sent the CP01A to provide you with an Identity Protection Personal Identification Number (IP PIN)<\/a> for you to record on your next tax return. Using the IP PIN will prevent a tax return, filed by another individual using your Social Security Number, from being processed by the IRS. This number is only valid for one tax year.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
