The IRS is proposing an averaged federal tax deposit (FTD) penalty because you haven’t provided a complete, accurate or legible record of federal tax liability (ROFTL). The ROFTL discloses tax liabilities to the IRS based on either the month or the day of the liability.<\/h2>\n

Type of Notice: <\/strong>Account information or change<\/p>\n

Most common tax problem area: <\/strong>Business penalties<\/a><\/p>\n

Other tax problem areas: <\/strong>Unpaid business taxes<\/a><\/p>\n

Why you received IRS Letter 313C<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. You filed an employment tax return but did not include a complete, accurate or legible record of federal tax liability (ROFTL), as required.<\/li>\n
  2. The IRS sent you a notice, such as CP207 requesting a complete and accurate ROFTL.<\/li>\n
  3. The IRS did not receive a ROFTL.<\/li>\n
  4. The IRS sent Letter 313C to propose an averaged failure to deposit penalty. When you don\u2019t provide a complete, accurate and legible ROFTL, the IRS averages the total tax liability and distributes it equally over the tax period. The IRS then applies your federal tax deposits to the averaged liabilities in the order deposits were received. As a result, the IRS may not count your client\u2019s deposits as timely because the actual dates of your client\u2019s tax liabilities cannot be accurately determined.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Your options to address IRS Letter 313C<\/h3>\n
      \n
    1. Provide the information requested<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Notice deadline: <\/strong>30 days<\/p>\n

      If you miss the deadline: <\/strong>A failure to deposit penalty will be assessed based on the averaged liabilities.<\/p>\n
