→ Verify the form number printed on the top of the document

Some think a digital signature works for paper mail

→ Use a handwritten signature unless e‑file is allowed

Mailing address

The address on the form may differ from the notice

→ Use the address on the IRS notice

Supporting documents

Unclear which documents are needed

→ List each attachment exactly as the notice states

Deadline calculation

The notice may say “within 30 days” but count from the date of receipt

→ Confirm the start date on the notice
