What is IRS Notice CP501?

IRS Notice CP501 is the first reminder sent after the initial CP14 balance-due notice. You receive this notice if you:

  • Did not respond to the CP14 notice
  • Haven't paid your balance in full
  • Haven't set up a payment arrangement

The CP501 notice includes:

  • Updated balance with additional penalties and interest
  • Payment deadline (typically within 10 days)
  • Warning that failure to pay will result in further collection action

⚠️ Escalation Timeline

If you ignore CP501, the IRS will send CP503 (second reminder) in ~30 days, followed by CP504 (final notice before levy) in another ~30 days.

Hear It From Our Customers: Don't Just Take Our Word for It

I received multiple letters from the IRS. I called FreshRelief. With patience, they explained and answered all my questions. They were able to settle my tax issues and relieved the stress I've been feeling for years. I recommended a few friends from out of state to them. They made the process simple and easy. I'd like to thank FreshRelief for this.

I knew I had to face reality and take control, but I didn't know how. I was spending time I didn't have trying to reach a human to explain my situation. The letters just kept coming with words I didn't understand. The IRS forms were too much. THANK YOU, FRESHRELIEF, for saving me.

- Larry B.

My husband passed away and we owed the IRS a lot of money. Dealing with trying to get a person to help me at the IRS was a joke and caused me great anxiety. I had no idea where to begin but thanks to FreshRelief, they stayed by my side the whole way. There's no way I'd be able to handle these tax problems alone.
