What Triggered This Notice?

CP90 is typically issued after:

• Prior balance-due notices were ignored (CP14, CP501, CP503)

• CP504 was issued and not resolved

• An installment agreement defaulted

• Tax debt remains unpaid after repeated notices

This is the final warning before full levy authority.

What the IRS Can and Cannot Do at This Stage

After the 30-day window expires, the IRS may:

• Levy wages

• Levy bank accounts

• Seize certain personal assets

• Continue aggressive collection action

If you file a timely CDP hearing request:

• Levy action is generally suspended during the hearing process

This Is NOT the Same As

• CP504 — Limited to state refund levy and passport certification

• CP297 — Business final notice

• CP14 / CP501 / CP503 — Early balance-due reminders

• 90-Day Deficiency Notice — Pre-assessment legal notice

CP90 applies to individuals and unlocks full levy authority if not addressed.
