🔍 Attention Taxpayers!
Have you received a CP53E notice from the IRS? If you filed your tax return but didn’t provide or update your bank account information, the IRS will send you a CP53E notice. This notice prompts you to add or update your direct deposit details through your IRS Online Account.

Key Points to Remember:
• You have 30 days to respond to the notice.
• If you don’t take action, the IRS will issue a paper check after six weeks.
• The CP53E notice is issued only once. If a second direct deposit fails, you won’t have
another chance to update your bank info.

Verify your information through your IRS Online Account and protect yourself from potential scams. https://ow.ly/a6wb50YZGg2
