Received a 4883C letter from IRS? Here is what you need to do

4883C letter is one of the most common types of communications received from the IRS. 4883C does not mean that you have not filed your returns with the IRS. Rather it is sent by the department when you have successfully filed your returns but the department needs further information. This information is sought by the department to verify your identity in order to process your returns accurately.
