# Overview

1.4.19.2 (03-04-2025) Overview Automated Underreporter (AUR) cases are built from two primary sources: the Individual Master File (IMF) which contains information reported to IRS by taxpayers on Form 1040, U.S. Individual Income Tax Return, Form 1040-SR, U.S. Individual Income Tax Return for Seniors and the Information Returns Master File (IRMF) which contains information submitted by payers of Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement, Form 1099-DIV, Dividends and Distributions, Form 1099-INT, Interest Income, and others. The IRMF is matched with the IMF to verify all income is reported. Underreporter cases result when computer analysis detects a discrepancy between the two data sources. Discrepant cases are grouped by the following: Subfile - a specific group of taxpayer returns with like issues, regardless of income type Category - a specific type of discrepancy (income, adjustments to income, credits.) Sub-category - range of potential tax change Note: For a list of Category, Subfiles and Sub-categories see Exhibit 1.4.19-9, AUR Category Code Description/Chart. These categories and sub-categories provided a logical system of criteria to select cases from the available inventory. Cases are selected at the Headquarters level for each site utilizing the inventory selection tool. The inventory is then controlled by each AUR campus. The Computing Centers (Enterprise Computing Center at Martinsburg (ECC-MTB) and Enterprise Computing Center at Memphis (ECC-MEM)) send tape information from the IRMF, Return Transaction File (RTF), Taxpayer Information File (TIF), and Payer Agent File. This information is downloaded to the AUR system. Note: Data from the TIF and Payer Agent File is updated weekly. A computer tape containing Form 4251 (Return Charge-Out) data is printed on a campus printer for paper returns. Each Form 4251 contains a social security number (SSN), tax year, and other case identification information, represented on a bar code in numeric format. Returns are pulled by Federal Records Centers (FRC) and forwarded to the Campuses. Each screening extract must be released at the headquarters level before it is available to the site to work. All ELF cases are auto batched into Screening Batch Types (BTs) 01 - 26 and are identified as "Virtual batches" (no physical case). The batches are systemically closed and updated to "AB" status. Tax examiners (TEs) input the Process Codes (PCs) on the individual work unit listing and the clerks Release Batch (RB). Paper returns are uploaded using scanning software to load them into the AUR system to build systemically. After cases are selected from the inventory, they are worked according to procedures in IRM 4.19.3, IMF Automated Underreporter Program. Cases with paper returns are received and scanned into the AUR system by the clerical function. As paper cases are scanned and systemically built into Screening Batch Types (BTs) 01 - 26 they are controlled in the AUR system. Screening batches are requested by technical units to be worked. Tax examiners perform an in-depth analysis of each case. If the identified discrepant amount is resolved, the case is closed with no taxpayer contact. If the discrepant amount was not included on the return or otherwise resolved, the taxpayer is sent one of the following: Letter 2893-C - a letter generated for confirmed and appropriate Federal Withholding (W/H) and/or Excess Social Security Tax (SST) CP 2501 - an initial contact letter (no tax calculation) requesting additional information or a CP 2000 - a proposal to change tax which includes calculations and explanations CP 3219A- Statutory Notice of Deficiency. Process codes are codes used to provide an audit trail for AUR case processing. Integrated Data Retrieval System (IDRS) reflects AUR PCs as pending actions until they post to Master File. . PCs designated to generate notices ( CP 2000, CP 2501 and CP 3219A) transaction code (TC) 922 string listed on IDRS. There are other PCs input during AUR processing that do not generate notices. These PCs may require the case to be released from the work unit prior to batch release. For a complete list of PCs see IRM 4.19.3 Exhibit 4.19.3-4, AUR Process Codes. Internal Process Codes (IPCs) are used to initiate internal processes. A complete list of IPCs can be found in IRM 4.19.3, Exhibit 4.19.3-3, AUR Internal Process Codes. For a list of abbreviations and definitions used in AUR processing, see IRM 4.19.3, Exhibit 4.19.3-2, Glossary and Abbreviations.

# AUR System Problem Reporting Procedures

1.4.19.2.1 (03-04-2025) AUR System Problem Reporting Procedures Refer any AUR system issue to the AUR Coordinator. If after researching , the AUR Coordinator is unable to resolve the issue is elevated to the appropriate Headquarter (HQ) Analyst(s) using the HQ Referral form. Reminder: If AUR system issue happens outside of HQ Policy business hours. Refer to AUR After Hour Procedures

# Policy Statement P-21-3 Guidelines

1.4.19.2.2 (11-21-2023) Policy Statement P-21-3 Guidelines Policy Statement P-21-3 Guidelines are the result of a task force initiated to provide timely and quality responses to taxpayer correspondence. For general guidelines refer to IRM 4.19.3.22.1.5, Policy Statement P-21-3.

# Archived Cases

1.4.19.2.3 (10-26-2021) Archived Cases The AUR system maintains an archived file of AUR cases for 10 years. Cases from any site can be accessed using View Case in the appropriate tax year on the system. For TY 2013 and prior if information on the case is needed, the case must be ordered from files.

# Spousal Notices

1.4.19.2.4 (11-01-2013) Spousal Notices A second CP 2501 or CP 2000 notice may be generated for the spouse whenever the secondary spouse's address has changed from the AUR tax year to the year of the latest filed return. The second notice is an exact duplicate of all the information contained in the original notice mailed to the primary taxpayer with the exception that the second notice contains the current address of the potential/probable ex-spouse. CP 3219A notices are generated to each spouse, regardless of most recent address of record.

# Statute of Limitations

1.4.19.2.5 (03-04-2025) Statute of Limitations In general, assessments must be made within three (3) years after the return due date or filing date, whichever is later. An assessment may be made within six (6) years if there is a substantial omission, 25 percent or more per IRC 6501(e), of gross income. The statute can be extended where the issuance of a Statutory Notice of Deficiency time frame overlaps the original ASED, see IRM 4.19.3, Statutory Notices of Deficiency. Note: Statute cases and the use of Form 872 should be kept to a minimum. However, if it is not possible to timely work and/or timely close these cases, Form 872 should be used. A request for prompt assessment of tax on the estate of a deceased taxpayer limits the statute period for assessment of tax to 18 months after the written request is properly filed or to the normal statute date, whichever is earlier. Statute awareness is a vital process to the performance of identifying statute cases in the Internal Revenue Service operations. The Statute Awareness Program was created to minimize barred assessments and erroneous abatements. For information on conditions which may extend the assessment statute expiration date (ASED), refund statute expiration date (RSED), or collection statute expiration date (CSED), see IRM 25.6, Statute of Limitations. Employees who deal with statute related issues must be able to identify statute imminent or expired periods for assessing, refunding, and collecting tax on Individual Master File (IMF), Business Master File (BMF), and Individual Retirement Account File (IRAF) accounts. If less than 90 days remain until the ASED, prepare the case for adjustment using Form 2859, Request for Quick or Prompt Assessment, and route to the Accounting Operations for assessment via Form 3552, Prompt Assessment Billing Assembly. Cases indicating a decrease in tax, previously assessed by AUR, are resolved by the AUR reconsideration function. See IRM 21.5.3, General Claims Procedures, for Category A criteria and claim disallowance procedures.

# Balanced Measurement System

1.4.19.2.6 (11-01-2014) Balanced Measurement System The Balanced Measurement System provides guidance for all functions of the IRS and contributes to the focus for work performed in the AUR function. The Balanced Measures are described below: Provide accurate and professional services to internal and external customers in a courteous, timely manner. Empower employee engagement and high-quality productivity through motivational leadership, effective support services, and timely delivery of first-class training programs. Generate a productive quantity of work in a quality manner and provide meaningful outreach to all customers.

# Maintaining Documents In AUR

1.4.19.2.7 (03-04-2025) Maintaining Documents In AUR Form 3210 - Document Transmittal - Correspondence, teletype, transmittal letters, reports, transmittal receipt and control documents, pertaining to receiving, controlling and transmitting tax returns, taxpayer account registers, and related documents should be maintained within the Operation for one-year from the date the transmittal was prepared. After the one-year period, Form 3210 can be destroyed in accordance with Document 12990, IRS Record Control Schedule (RCS) 23, Item Number 36. Certified mail listings (CMLs) are retained at the site for the current open AUR years and three years prior. Any CMLs prior to this are sent to the FRC for retention.

# Integrated Automation Technologies (IAT)

1.4.19.2.8 (11-21-2023) Integrated Automation Technologies (IAT) Automated Underreporter employees are mandated to use the Integrated Automation Technologies (IAT) tools. When an action must be taken on IDRS (unable to complete the action within the AUR system) and an IAT tool is available, AUR employees with access to IAT tools are required to complete the action using the IAT tool. The IAT tools assist the tax examiner (TE) with IDRS research and input. Note: If an IAT tool is not functioning properly, the case should be worked using IDRS. To avoid IDRS security violations, the following command codes must be in the employee's profile to utilize the "xMend" IAT tool: ACTON, ADJ54, AMDIS, CFINK, DDBKD, DUPOL, ENMOD, ENREQ, FRM77, IMFOL, INOLE, IRPTR, LETER, LPAGE, MFREQ, REQ77, RTVUE, STAUP, SUMRY, TXCMP, TRDBV, and TXMOD. Other command codes may be optional depending on the action being performed. Ensure the IRS Command Codes are established prior to utilizing the IAT tool. To research a specific IAT function, or access IAT job aids, See, Integrated Automation Technologies.

# Managerial Approval for Accuracy Related Penalties

1.4.19.2.9 (11-21-2023) Managerial Approval for Accuracy Related Penalties If the TP response includes a request to abate an Accuracy Related penalty (either Negligence or Substantial Understatement) and the tax examiner determines the abatement will not be granted, written managerial approval is required. See IRM 4.19.3.22.1.4, Accuracy Related Penalties, for additional information. The approval must be done at the time the tax examiner determines to continue processing the case AND must be done by a manager An administrative waiver for certain penalties was implemented in 2001 for tax periods with ending dates after December 31, 2000. It is referred to as First Time Abate (FTA) and is available for penalty relief the first time a taxpayer is subject to certain penalties for a single return filed by the taxpayer. The AUR program DOES NOT grant penalty relief under FTA. If the taxpayer is requesting FTA for the failure to file, failure to pay, or other penalties and submitted Form 843, Claim for Refund and Request for Abatement, the request is sent to Accounts Management for processing. To document the managerial approval to assert the penalty, the manager accesses the Case Note window in AUR (see SERP - Job Aids - IMF AUR Research Portal , AUR System Guide, 9.10.2, Creating a Case Note, for additional information) and selects the standard case note. Once committed, the case note will append to the case with the approving managers SEID.

# Controlling Work - Batch and Case Overview

1.4.19.3 (11-21-2023) Controlling Work - Batch and Case Overview AUR cases to be analyzed by AUR Tax Examiners (TEs) are built into batches, each batch is divided into work units. It is the manager's responsibility to monitor and control work coming through their unit. After all cases in the batch have been worked, the batches are released from the technical unit to the clerical function for appropriate action. Each batch is identified with a five-digit number. The first two digits of the batch number are used to describe the batch type. The next three digits are used to describe the sequential number of a regular batch (001 through 999), or the Unit Location Number of a Unit Suspense Batch (Batch Types (BT) 36, 42, 45, 62, 65, 75, 77, 82, or 92). Each case is assigned a nine-digit case sequence number (CSN). The CSN corresponds to the location of a case within a batch. A CSN is composed of different elements dependent upon whether the case is in a suspense batch or a regular batch. The CSN of a regular batch consists of four sections. The description of the numbers in sequence are: The first two numbers are the batch type. The next three numbers are the batch sequence number. The next two numbers are the work unit containing the case. The last two numbers are for the document number within the work unit. Exception: Cases assigned to the TEs individual unit suspense do not contain a work unit number or document number as listed in steps 3 and 4 above. The CSN of a suspense batch consists of three sections. The description of numbers in sequence are: The first two numbers are the batch type. The next three numbers are the batch sequence or the location of a Unit Suspense Batch. The last four numbers are the sequence number of a case within the batch. When the document number reaches 9,999 the batch sequence number increases by one and the document number within the batch starts at 0001. Note: Cases assigned to the TEs individual unit suspense only contain the batch number, they do not have a work unit or document number within the work unit. The CSN is displayed on the Case History Screen. The CSN is valid for locating a case as long as the original batch remains intact and in order during processing. If a case is removed from its original location in the batch and is not returned to it, the CSN is not valid for locating the case. A new CSN is assigned when the case is built to a new batch. To view the history of a case anywhere on the AUR system: Select the tax year from the AUR Year menu. Select review from the AUR main menu. Select Case history from the drop down menu. The History/View/Request window displays. Enter the SSN. If the case is a phone case, click in the PHONE CONTACT box, otherwise press <Enter>. If the case is a text chat contact, click in the TEXT CHAT box, otherwise press <Enter>. Clerical queries and searches the status of a case by taking the following action: Select the tax year from the AUR Year menu. Select Control from the AUR main menu. Select Case from the Control menu. Select Case history from the drop-down menu. The History/View/Request window displays. Enter the SSN. Press <Enter> twice. The batch status code defines the status of the batch at any time during processing. See IRM 4.19.2.5.2, Batch Status Codes, for a list of acceptable batch status codes and their meanings.

# Batch Types

1.4.19.3.1 (03-04-2025) Batch Types Batch Types 01 - 26 - Screening Association - The AUR inventory is ordered in groups referred to as extracts. As case information for these extracts is downloaded into AUR, it is assigned a batch type number ranging sequentially from 01 through 19. These digits represent the extract number. ELF cases are identified as "VIRTUAL" (V) cases. The system auto-batches these cases into extract batches 01XXX - 19XXX. The batches are identified with a "V" to the left of the batch number on the Batch Inventory Report. The clerical function builds all paper returns into the initial screening batches and holds them until requested by a technical unit through the Batch Request option. Batch Types 27 - Auto-Generated Notice - Certain AUR inventories bypass the physical analysis/screening phase of the program and have CP 2000 systemically generated. This process is referred to as Auto-Generated Notices (AGN). These cases systemically move to BT27. No clerical action is required for these cases during analysis batch building. Batch Type 29 - Priority Screening - Screening cases in this batch type may require expedited processing. Technical managers should follow campus direction for requesting these batches. Batch Type 30 - Missing Return Suspense - There are two types of cases built to BT 30: Cases where FRC pulled the wrong document locator number (DLN) (IPC WP). Cases where the system has reordered the return automatically based on the reorder date input by the AUR Coordinator. IPC 0A is generated when the system reorders the return. Note: If the returns are not built to BT 31 (Complete Screening Cases) within 60 days, the cases are systemically closed with PC 29, an Unavailable Return Report is generated. Batch Type 31 - Complete Screening Cases - Cases previously assigned to BT 30 are built to BT 31 when the return or data is received. These batches are available for processing by technical units. Batch Type 33 - Screening Research Complete - Cases previously assigned to BT 34 and BT 35 are built into BT 33 when the requested research is received. These batches are available for processing by technical units. The cases have IPC 0A, additional return requested. Batch Type 34 - Screening Research Suspense - Screening Research Suspense Batch numbers are 34000 - 34599, requests for additional return (IPC 0A). The Aged Screening Research Pull List is generated weekly for cases not completed within 60 days from the request date. The cases are systemically closed with PC 29. Exception: Filing status 3 (married filing separate) cases do not automatically close if the research is not received. These cases are assigned to BT 33 and are available for request and processing by the technical units. Batch Type 35 - Miscellaneous Referrals - Cases requiring additional technical assistance are built into this batch. These cases must have a current IPC 0D. These batches are available for request and processing by the technical units. Batch Type 36 - Screening Unit Suspense - Cases which require technical determination by the manager or lead are transferred by the TE to their Screening Unit Suspense. The system automatically generates IPC 0E and moves the cases to the unit suspense batch. These cases are suspended in the unit and should be monitored by the TE and manager/lead TE to ensure timely actions are taken. Cases are held in the unit until the issue is resolved and the case is released to the unit's designated area for clerical retrieval. Batch Type 37 - Released Unit Suspense - Completed cases from BT 36 are released to the designated area for clerical retrieval. The clerical function builds the cases into BT 37, verifies the PC/IPC, and releases the cases to the appropriate area based on the PC/IPC. Batch Type 38 - Remail CP 2000/Recomp - During the batch building process for BT 59, undeliverable CP 2000 and recomputation notice cases with an address update are rejected by the system. The clerical function builds these cases into BT 38. When a better address is identified the system assigns new notice dates and generates amended notices. The system moves the cases to Recomp/Amended/PC55 Suspense BT 55. Batch Type 39 - Screening Rejects - When a notice is rejected, the clerical function pulls the case from the suspense file and builds into BT 39. These batches are available for request and processing by the technical units. Batch Type 40 - CP 2501 Suspense - During the systemic batch disassembly process, cases with a current PC 30 are systemically assigned to BT 40 in CSN order. The cases remain in BT 40 until a response is received, the notice is returned undeliverable, or the suspense timeframe expires. Batch Type 41 - CP 2501 Identity Theft (IDT) Response -CP 2501 responses with an indication of identity theft are built into separate BT 41 by the clerical function. These batch numbers are provided to the AUR Coordinator. BT 41 may only have one IRS received dates. Batch Type 42 - CP 2501 Unit Research Suspense - Cases with IPC 3A are systemically assigned to the appropriate unit suspense batch based on the IPC and the TEs SEID. These cases are suspended in the unit and should be monitored by the TE and the manager/lead TE to ensure the requested research is received and timely actions are taken. Completed cases are released to the unit's designated area for clerical retrieval. Batch Type 43 - CP 2501 Miscellaneous Referrals -CP 2501 response cases requiring technical assistance are assigned IPC 3D. The clerical function builds the cases to BT 43. The batches are available for request and processing by the technical units. Batch Type 44 - CP 2501 Response -CP 2501 cases receiving a taxpayer response with no indication of identity theft are built to BT 44 by the clerical function and are available for request and processing by technical units. BT 44 may have multiple IRS received dates. Batch Type 45 - CP 2501 Unit Suspense - Cases requested by the TE and cases which require technical determination by the manager or lead (transferred by the TE to their CP 2000 Unit Suspense) are systemically assigned to BT 45. The system automatically generates IPC 3E and moves the cases to the unit suspense batch. These cases are suspended in the unit and should be monitored by the TE and manager/lead TE to ensure timely actions are taken. Cases are held in the unit until the issue is resolved and the case is released to the unit's designated area for clerical retrieval. Note: Cases with a CSN of 45950 indicates the case is a Universal Work Case (UWC). Batch Type 46 - CP 2501 Response Release - Completed cases from Unit Suspense (BT 42 and BT 45) are released to the designated area for clerical retrieval. The clerical function builds these cases into BT 46, verifies the PC/IPC and releases the cases to the appropriate area based on the PC/IPC. Batch Type 49 - CP 2501 No Response Auto Purge - Cases not receiving a taxpayer response within the suspense timeframe and are not identified by the system as requiring a TE to review, are systemically assigned to BT 49. The system automatically updates the PC to 57 to generate a CP 2000 Notice. BT 49 is not requested or processed by the technical units. Batch Type 50 - CP 2000 Suspense - Cases with a current PC 55 and no amended indicator are systemically assigned to BT 50. The cases are filed in CSN order based on notice date and remain in this suspense batch until a response is received, the notice is returned undeliverable, or the suspense timeframe expires. Batch Type 51 - CP 2000/Recomp Agreed Response -CP 2000 and Recomputation notices receiving fully agreed responses are built into BT 51 by the clerical function. When clerical updates the batch to "RB" status, the system automatically changes the PC to 67, creates and posts the assessment record, and closes the IDRS control base on these cases. BT 51 may have multiple IRS received dates. Batch Type 52 - CP 2000/Recomp Disagreed Response - Disagreed CP 2000 and recomputation notice response cases are built into BT 52 by the clerical function. The batches are available for request and processing by the technical units. Each BT 52 has one IRS Received Date. Note: Separate BT (52,53,58) are built for identity theft responses which require priority handling. Batch Type 53 - CP 2000/Recomp Priority Response - Fully agreed and/or disagreed CP 2000 and Amended CP 2000 response cases may be built into BT 53 based on an IRS received date of 20 or more days old. BT 53 is available for request and processing by the technical units. BT 53 may have multiple IRS Received Dates. Note: Separate BT (52,53,58) are built for identity theft responses which require priority handling. Note: Local management has the option to batch fully agreed cases with an IRS received date of 20 days or more to BT 51. Batch Type 55 - Recomputed Amended/PC 57 CP 2000 Suspense - During the systemic batch disassembly process, cases with the following PCs are systemically assigned to Recomputed CP 2000 Suspense (BT 55): PC 55 - CP 2000 with a manual interest calculation PC 55A - Amended CP 2000 PC 57 - CP 2000 issued after a CP 2501 PC 59 - Recomputed CP 2000 Note: Cases remain in this batch until a response is received, the notice is returned as undeliverable, or the suspense timeframe expires. Batch Type 58 - Late CP 2000 Response (CP 3219A Generated) - Cases where a notice has been generated but has not been mailed due to receipt of a response are built into BT 58. When cases are built into BT 58 the notice is stopped. These batches are available for request and processing by the technical units. BT 58 may have multiple IRS received dates. Separate BT (52,53,58) are built for identity theft responses which require priority handling. If response does not build to BT 58, clerical holds the case until the notice date and then builds to the appropriate response batch. Once a case has been built to BT 58, it cannot be transferred out of the batch, doing so causes issues with stopping the notice. Batch Type 59 - Aged CP 2000 Stat Preparation -CP 2000, recomputation notice, or IPC 6L or 6S cases, which have either met the suspense timeframes or are true undeliverables, are systemically assigned to BT 59. The system automatically updates the PC to 75 to generate a notice. BT 59 is not requested or processed by the technical units. Batch Type 60 - CP 2000 Letter Suspense - During the systemic batch disassembly process, CP 2000 cases requiring a letter are systemically assigned to BT 60 based on the assignment of IPC 6L or 6S. These cases are filed in CSN order based on the letter date and remain in BT 60 until a response is received, the letter is returned as undeliverable, or the suspense timeframe expires. Batch Type 61 - Manual Interest Rejects - Cases previously processed and rejected are built into BT 61 and are available for request and processing by technical units. The interest computation date, determined by local management, is input by the tax examiner when the batch is updated to "AU" status. Note: These batches MUST be released timely to avoid missing the notice date. If the notice date is missed these cases have to be reworked. Batch Type 62 - CP 2000 Unit Research Suspense - Cases with IPC 6A are systemically assigned to the appropriate unit suspense batch based on the IPC and the TEs SEID. These cases are suspended in the unit and should be monitored by the TE and the manager/lead TE to ensure the requested research is received and timely actions are taken. Completed cases are released to the unit's designated area for clerical retrieval. Batch Type 63 - CP 2000 Miscellaneous Referral -CP 2000, recomputation notice, or IPC 6L or 6S responses requiring technical assistance are built into BT 63. The current IPC must be 6D. These cases are available for request and processing by the technical units. Batch Type 65 - CP 2000 Unit Suspense - Cases requested by the TE and cases which require technical determination by the manager or lead (transferred by the TE to their CP 2000 Unit Suspense) are systemically assigned to BT 65. The system automatically generates IPC 6E and moves the cases to the unit suspense batch. These cases are suspended in the unit and should be monitored by the TE and manager/lead TE to ensure timely actions are taken.

Batch Type 67 - Partially Agreed - Cases assigned IPC RN (Partially agreed response) are built into BT 67. When the batch is updated to "AB" status, the IPC RN/CR is converted to PC 59/57. After 7 days clerical updates the batch to "RB" status, the system updates the case to PC 67 and creates and posts an automatic assessment record. If the batch has not been updated to "RB" status after two cycles the system generates a Partially Agreed Aging Report. Note: The auto assessment report does not generate for BT 67. Batch Type 68 - Manual Stat Prep - Undeliverable notice cases with a post office forwarding address or a new address on the system and cases the TE has identified as requiring a manual notice (PC 77) are built into BT 68. Manual notices are prepared by the tax examiner who input the PC 77 or by the locally designated employee. BT 68 is not requested or processed by the technical units. Batch Type 70 - Statutory Notice Suspense - During the systemic batch disassembly process, the system assigns cases with a PC/IPC 75, 77, 95, 8L, 8S, or 8M into notice Suspense (BT 70).

Batch Type 85 - Remail Statutory Notices - CP 3219A Notices returned by the Post Office as undeliverable are targeted to BT 85. To be accepted in BT 85, the case must have a PC 75 and a system identified new address present since the was mailed to the taxpayer. Build undeliverable with PC 77 to BT 68. During the batch building process (BT 85), the system checks each SSN for a new address. If a new address is present, the SSN is accepted into the batch. When the batch is updated to "RB" status, the AUR system automatically generates a request for a new Notice to the new address. If there is no better address or if the case is other than PC 75, the system does not accept the SSN in BT 85. Refused or unclaimed notices are systemically marked with an undeliverable indicator "X" . The system displays the following error message: "ERROR: Stat notice was unclaimed or refused. Dispose of Stat as classified waste." These undelivered notices do not need to be interfiled and should be discarded in accordance with local classified waste procedures. Batch Type 86 - Statutory Notice Response Release - Completed cases from BT 75 or BT 77 are released to a designated area for clerical retrieval.

This subsection contains information and instructions for AUR managers to resolve taxpayer telephone inquiries through the UCCE (Unified Contact Center Environment) Telephone System. This includes security measures, accessing the system and training telephone assistors. See SERP - Job Aids - IMF AUR Research Portal , IRS Cisco Finesse Supervisor Desktop User Guide. Universal Work allows the TE to provide quality service to the taxpayer regardless of which site controls their case. This option is available for any year available on the AUR system. If the case requires a paper document or a fax, and is controlled at another campus, do not use the Universal Work Option. See IRM 4.19.3.22.2.6, Universal Case. Note: If TE is unable to view or request a case using UWC, see IRM 1.4.19.12.7.1.1, Adding/Reactivating Users.

# Manager Calls

1.4.19.4.1 (06-01-2006) Manager Calls Manager calls should be very rare. If an assistor refers an excessive number of calls, it is likely additional training and coaching is needed in "Effective Communication" and/or "Dealing with Difficult Taxpayers" . Remember everyone in IRS is an advocate for the taxpayer. Appropriate actions should be taken to correct the taxpayer's problem on first contact. However, if you cannot correct the problem AND the taxpayer's issue meets Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) criteria as outlined in IRM 21.1.3.18, Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) Guidelines, refer the case to the TAS. Encourage assistors to practice techniques to diffuse a taxpayer's anger, reassure taxpayers they can assist with the issue, and to make every effort to handle the call themselves. However, some taxpayers: Immediately want to speak with a manager, Are only satisfied by speaking with a manager even though the assistor has provided the requested assistance, Want to complain about the service the IRS has provided, or Want to compliment the service the IRS has provided.

# Manager Calls - Taking a Call

1.4.19.4.1.1 (11-21-2023) Manager Calls - Taking a Call To receive a manager call, ensure you are signed onto the Cisco Finesse Supervisor desktop software. For log in information, See the Cisco Finesse Supervisor Desktop User Guide. When you are prepared to speak with the taxpayer, take the referred call: Verify from the phone assistor disclosure was covered. If disclosure was not addressed, it's the manager's responsibility to cover disclosure procedures. Obtain the SSN and the tax year from the assistor and ensure the assistor is no longer viewing the case. Select the tax year from the AUR Year menu. Select reView from the AUR main menu. Select View case from the drop-down menu. The History/View/Request window displays with the cursor in the ENTER SSN field. Caution: Do not click on the PHONE CONTACT field, when the assistor has already taken this action. Connect with the taxpayer and provide your last name (for example, "Manager LAST name" or Mr, Mrs, Miss, Ms, LAST name), unique badge identification number and ask "How may I help you?" . Caution: DO NOT provide your first and last name when identifying yourself, use one of the examples shown above. While talking with taxpayers, you represent the IRS and must always conduct yourself in a professional manner. There is no excuse for treating anyone rudely. Be courteous, control the direction of the conversation and give the taxpayer accurate and complete assistance. Maintain a pleasant, friendly tone of voice. Speak clearly, using words the taxpayer can understand. Avoid using IRS jargon and acronyms. Handle taxpayer's negative reactions with patience. Treat the taxpayer as a unique individual deserving respect. Put yourself in the taxpayer's place. If you received a notice and called for assistance, you would want to be treated with respect and given accurate, complete information to resolve the problem. Callbacks are used when you prefer to return the call later , enabling you to research the account before talking to the taxpayer. If you prefer to return the taxpayer's call, obtain the taxpayer's name, SSN, phone number and the best time to return the call. For more information on making an outgoing call, see the Cisco Finesse Supervisor Desktop User Guide. Double jacking enables the manager to take the call along side the assistor. Using this procedure might provide some insight on how this type of call could be handled by the assistor in the future. Reminder: Place yourself in IDLE or Logout of the Cisco Finesse Supervisor desktop when you are away from your desk.

# Distressed/Angry Customers

1.4.19.4.1.2 (06-01-2006) Distressed/Angry Customers When a call is transferred to the manager, the taxpayer is already distressed. Be prepared to take the appropriate action to deal with their needs. An important goal in dealing with a distressed taxpayer is to keep potentially disruptive emotions out of the conversation. Start with controlling your own reactions and emotions. Reminder: Even though the taxpayer is distressed, they want to believe as a manager, you can make the situation better. There are three steps to lessen a taxpayer's anger: Listen. Empathize. Assure.

# Telephone Threat Procedures

1.4.19.4.1.3 (11-21-2023) Telephone Threat Procedures When a phone assistor clicks on the "Emergency" button, the manager will be notified. The call will automatically become a conference call to include the phone assistor, caller, and the Emergency Call Recording line. The following instructions should be used when receiving a bomb or other threatening call: The assistor gets the manager's attention. Managers should be available to walk the assistor through the procedures. The assistor needs to be as calm as possible, following the instructions below and asking the questions as shown on Form 9166, Bomb Threat Data Collection. Keep the caller on the line as long as possible. Ask them to repeat the message. Ask the questions listed on Form 9166. Complete the Form 9166. Retain a copy for your records and forward a copy to Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA). If the caller does not indicate the location or time of possible detonation, ask them for this information. Since calls are routed between different sites, it is extremely important to try to ascertain the caller's physical location and which IRS facility (city, state, specific building/floor/function) is being threatened. Inform the caller the building is occupied and detonation of a bomb could result in the death or serious injury to many innocent people. Listen closely to the voice (male or female), voice quality (calm, excited), accents, and speech impediments. Pay particular attention to background noises such as motors running, music playing, and any other noise which might give a clue to the caller's location. DO NOT hang-up after the caller is off the line. This assists in tracing the call. Immediately report a bomb threat to your nearest TIGTA office. If the bomb threat concerns another IRS building, the TIGTA agent(s) contact the TIGTA office having jurisdiction over the threatened IRS building. Enter the telephone numbers for contacting your TIGTA Office below. More related information can be found at Emergency & Safety and see IRM 21.1.3.10.7, Bomb Threats. Note: It may be helpful to keep a Form 9166 with the above information readily available at your workstation.

# Suicide Threats

1.4.19.4.1.4 (11-21-2023) Suicide Threats If a taxpayer makes a suicide threat over the telephone, the assistor should: Press the Emergency button located in the Finesse Agent Desktop software. Stay calm. Not hang up or ignore the caller. Use good judgment in keeping the caller on the line. Immediately get a manager or the acting manager to take the call - without transferring or putting the caller on hold. The manager/acting manager: Takes responsibility for the telephone call. Asks the caller for the location (including phone number) from which they are calling. If the caller complies, document the caller's address/location. Use all means available at your site, including the telephone or internet access to gather the necessary information to contact the required local law enforcement or government suicide prevention authority. Note: Campus directions vary, ensure all managers have the appropriate instruction inserted here. All sites should cover this information with local management to ensure during a live call of this type, it is not the first time the manager has reviewed these instructions. Note: If either the assistor and/or manager is teleworking, see IRM 21.1.3.12.1, Suicide Threat Procedures in a Telework Environment, for more information. Report the threat and the caller's location to the local authorities. When we obtain a telephone number or location from the caller, we can relay this information to the local authorities. Note: If the caller provides their location, this information can be given to local authorities. This is not a disclosure of return/account information. See IRM 11.3.34.2, Procedures for Release of Information Regarding a Nontax Crime, and IRM 11.3.34.3, Expedited Procedures in Emergency Situations, for more information. When reporting a suicide threat to local law enforcement authorities, state only that the threat was made during a contact involving "official business" . Before ending the call, try to resolve the tax problem and calm the caller. Contact your local Disclosure Manager as soon as possible and inform them of the threat and of any information disclosed to the law enforcement or suicide prevention authority. See IRM 11.3.34.2, Procedures for Release of Information Regarding a Nontax Crime, and IRM 11.3.34.3, Expedited Procedures in Emergency Situations, for more information. If the caller refuses to give their location, a manager/lead or TE (provided a local Disclosure delegation order granting authorization is in effect) can use IRS systems to obtain the name and address of the caller, to give the information to federal or state law enforcement agencies, in situations involving life and health of an individual. This is considered an authorized IRC Section 6103(i)(3)(B) disclosure. See IRM 11.3.28.8, Use of Returns and Return Information in Administrative and Judicial Proceedings, and IRM 21.1.3.12, Suicide Threats, for further information. Calls involving threats of suicide require all of the following actions be taken: Contact your local Disclosure Office. Disclosure will guide you through the required accounting for the disclosure. Contact the local TIGTA office following established local procedures. Contact Employee Protection using Form 13090, Caution Indicator Referral Report, via fax, mail or a secured e-mail message. For additional information regarding Caution Upon Contact designation and referrals see IRM 25.4.2, Caution Upon Contact Taxpayer.

# Compliments and Complaints

1.4.19.4.1.5 (03-04-2025) Compliments and Complaints Taxpayer complaints about unresolved tax account issues should be resolved if possible. If unable to resolve and the issue meets Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) criteria, transfer to TAS. See IRM 21.1.3.18, Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) Guidelines. Check for campus directions for handling taxpayer complaints and compliments. See IRM 21.1.3, Taxpayer Complaints/Compliments About IRS Service.

# Telephone Call Reviews

1.4.19.4.2 (11-15-2022) Telephone Call Reviews Managers are required to review 3 calls per month per assistor or the number of reviews as set forth locally by either the Department or Operations Manager. To review a live call see SERP - Job Aids - IMF AUR Research Portal , Cisco Finesse Supervisor Desktop User Guide, for more information. Note: Review information is entered into the Embedded Quality System (EQRS); however, a monitoring sheet is usually helpful in keeping a record of the call. Reminder: Managers must complete a BEARS, Automated Information System (AIS) User Registration/Change Request, to request a link to EQRS. Read the EQRS User Guide before proceeding to main menu for logon. Calls can also be reviewed using Contact Recording through the Verint System. To review a call using Contact Recording, managers and reviewers requiring access to Verint must complete a BEARS request with the appropriate special instructions. IRM 4.19.3.22.2, Telephone Responses, contains the requirements for assistors and should be referenced in call reviews. Share the review with the assistor within 3 workdays. However, if the assistor has provided incorrect information to the taxpayer, the manager informs the assistor as soon as possible but no later than eight (8) work hours after the call has been reviewed. Keep a signed copy of the review for your records.

# Taxpayer Digital Communications (TDC) in AUR

1.4.19.5 (10-26-2021) Taxpayer Digital Communications (TDC) in AUR AUR tax examiners can communicate with certain taxpayers via secure messaging. All secure messages being sent through eGain require a Manager or Leads review to accept or reject the message before it is sent to the taxpayer/authorized representative. See the Secure Messaging Taxpayer Digital Communication User Guide, on the AUR Research Portal IMF, for more information.

# Procedures for Reviewing Outbound Messages

1.4.19.5.1 (03-04-2025) Procedures for Reviewing Outbound Messages Outbound messages to taxpayers/authorized representatives require managerial approval. When a TE creates a message, the system sends the message to the Lead's inbox and places it in the Manager Approval queue. When the Lead signs into eGain, the outbound messages requiring managerial approval displays in the inbox. The Manager or Lead must Accept or Reject the messages. Once the Manager or Lead accepts the message it is sent to the customer. If the message is rejected it's sent back to the examiner for corrections. To view the message needing review, take the following actions: Go to the Inbox. Click on the message activity needing review. The message displays in the Reply pane. Review the message for the following: Check the Subject Line for spelling errors and to ensure it has been updated from the initial Welcome Message subject line. TP's name is not in all capital letters or lower case in the greeting. The outbound message has the correct attachments. IRS Case status. If the message is a closing, ensure the IRS Case status is marked Completed. The content of the message addresses the taxpayer response and meets all required correspondence criteria. See IRM 4.19.3.22.9, Correspondence. If the message is acceptable, click Accept. The message automatically goes through spellcheck and then is sent to taxpayer. If the message is unacceptable (i.e., spelling/grammar issues, incorrect information provided, etc.), send an encrypted email and ensure the subject line does not contain PII to the examiner, with the reason you are rejecting the message. Provide the SSN and Case ID of the message being rejected. Then click Reject, the message is sent to the tax examiner's inbox for correction.

# Manager Procedures for Reviewing Outbound Messages

1.4.19.5.2 (11-02-2020) Manager Procedures for Reviewing Outbound Messages Messages are automatically populated into the Lead's inbox when the Lead signs into eGain.

# Monitoring and Reports

1.4.19.9 (11-21-2023) Monitoring and Reports While all the reports and listings serve a specific purpose, some have been designated as "Most Important" and should be monitored on a regular basis. The AUR System provides numerous methods to monitor inventory through history windows and inventory reports.

# Reports - General

1.4.19.9.1 (10-10-2018) Reports - General The reports in the AUR System serve two distinct purposes. The first is to provide listings to aid in the flow of work through the units. The second is to provide managers and the AUR Coordinator with information to be used in the coordination and monitoring of inventory. The report data on the AUR System is classified as either system or user generated. There are two major groupings. The first grouping is designated as Reports. Reports contain data elements providing information which allows management to monitor the total inventory. Reports are usually generated by the system and display all data reflecting the whole system rather than the individual batch information provided by the listings. Note: Both reports and listings most often reflect real time information rather than cumulative data. The second grouping is designated as Listings. Listings are used as transmittal sheets for specific batches of work. Listings break down batch information by Process Codes, Case Sequence Number, and/or SSN. Listings do not give a comprehensive picture of the inventory and are not usually generated by the system. Note: A few of the listings are system generated and provide information, which is needed to process cases requiring special handling. See Exhibit 1.4.19-6, AUR Report Matrix, which lists each report and listing with the report frequency, access capabilities, purpose and type of report. To navigate through a report on the screen, use the mouse or the following keys on the keyboard: End - Takes you to the last page of the report Down Arrow - Moves the cursor down one line Page Down (<pg dn>) - Takes you to the next page of the report Home - Takes you to the first page of the report Up Arrow - Moves the cursor up one line Page Up (<pg up>) - Takes you to the previous page of the report System generated reports are created weekly during the normal batch processing runs.

A designated individual monitors the processing to ensure it is progressing per the schedule reflected on the program planning documents. Any subsequent revisions to the schedule must be sent to the appropriate AUR Headquarters office. In addition, the AUR Coordinator is responsible for: Setting Notice Letter Mailout dates and volumes Letter paragraphs Setting Batch and Control Parameters AUR Balancing and Control Setting Extract Reorder Dates Monitoring the runs to ensure extract accuracy

# Coordinator Actions Needed For Tax Year Startup

# Coordinator Actions Needed For Tax Year Closeout/Shutdown

1.4.19.13.2 (10-20-2017) Coordinator Actions Needed For Tax Year Closeout/Shutdown At the end of each tax year there are certain actions the AUR Coordinator must do to ensure a clean closeout of the tax year. Prior to the closeout of a tax year, AUR HQ Analyst provides an email providing information the Coordinator need to consider. The closeout email provides the target date for shutdown and reminds the AUR Coordinator, cases in special programs (bankruptcy and ID theft), will need to be closed off the AUR system and worked manually. The Coordinator is responsible for reviewing the following reports/listings to identify inventory requiring attention: Inventory Report, see IRM 1.4.19.9.5.11.2 RLS Batch Status Report, see IRM 1.4.19.9.4.22 Open Case Listing, see IRM 1.4.19.9.5.7 Disassembled/Age Batch Report, see IRM 1.4.19.9.4.3 Notice/Letter Suspense Listing, see IRM 1.4.19.9.5.11.7 Bankruptcy Status, see IRM 1.4.19.9.6.4 Statute Listing, see IRM 1.4.19.9.5.11.9 Open Transfer Listing, see IRM 1.4.19.9.5.11.5 Note: The above listed reports should be reviewed in accordance to the specific IRM instructions for each report. In addition to the above reports the Coordinator should Look at Batch history for each Extract to identify if any volume remains Note: If volume remains, pull a Seq-num-ssn listing to identify the specific cases remaining in the extract. Check reorder dates to ensure all cases were reordered

# AUR Coordinator Screens

1.4.19.13.3 (11-21-2023) AUR Coordinator Screens Several parameters must be input by the AUR Coordinator (or rolled-over) prior to beginning each tax year. These parameters dictate several actions that take place in the system. To access the AUR Coordinator window, select AUR Coord from the AUR main menu. A drop-down menu displays the following: Notice dates Batch parameter Ctrl parameter Ltr parameter loc leTter Reorder dates Disaster zip cd rUn Controls The descriptions of the individual menu options in the following subsections provide more specific information.

# Notice Mailout Dates

1.4.19.13.3.1 (01-17-2023) Notice Mailout Dates The Notice Mailout Date window is used to set volumes for mailout of AUR notices. It is the responsibility of the AUR Coordinator to ensure the correct volumes are input in the notice mailout window. It may be necessary to update or change the volumes throughout the year. The AUR system assigns a mailout date to each case with a notice PC when the batch is updated to "RB" status. Notice dates and Notice Upload dates are systemically assigned and cannot be changed. The mailout volume is input by the AUR Coordinator and must be maintained. The windows contain the following fields for CP 2501, CP 2000, Recomputed, Stat and TDC: Notice Upload Date CP 2501 - Notice Date CP 2501 - Weekly Volume CP 2501 - Release Volume CP 2000 - Notice Date CP 2000 - Weekly Volume CP 2000 - Release Volume CP 2000 Auto Notice - Notice Date CP 2000 Auto Notice - Weekly Volume CP 2000 Auto Notice - Release Volume Recomputed Note Date and weekly volumes: Recomp/Amended/PC57, 95 - Notice Date Recomp/Amended/PC57, 95 - Weekly Volume Recomp/Amended/PC57, 95 - Released Volume Recomp/Amended/PC57, 95 - BT 67 Volume Recomp/Amended/PC57, 95 - BT 87 Volume Recomp/Amended/PC57, 95 - MI Reserve Stat Notice date and weekly volumes: Stat - Notice Date Stat - Weekly Volume Stat - Release Volume TDC Count To access the Notice Mailout Dates window: Select the tax year from the AUR Year menu. Select AUR Coord from the AUR main menu. Select the Notice dates from the drop-down menu. The Notice Dates Mailout window displays with the cursor in the first box in the NOTICE UPLOAD DATE field. Use <Enter> or <Tab> to advance the cursor. Enter the correct volume in the appropriate field(s). Press <F4> to commit. Press <F8> to exit. Note: All of the notice dates can be printed from the Notice Mailout Dates Listing available from the Reports menu. Notice Upload dates are Saturdays and display in MM/DD/YYYY format. If the Notice upload dates have already passed they do not display. Notice volumes for CP 2000 and Recomp/Amended notices cannot be changed if within two weeks of the Notice Upload Date, due to the time needed for the interest calculations. CP 2000 notices cannot be generated during the Master File dead cycles (interest computations cannot be downloaded). However, CP 2501, CP 2000 Recomp/Amended and CP 3219A Notices can be generated during the dead cycles as no Master File interest computation is required. Note: Headquarters provides notice dates where the volume of notices should be set to zero (0) for dead cycles and End of Year (EOY) processing. Note: An original CP 2000 request posts a PC 09 to request an interest computation from Master File. Once the notice volume for a specific notice date has been exceeded, any additional notice volume is assigned (rolled over) to the next available notice date. Note: When notices are rolled over to a future date, address updates are taken into consideration. Mailout volumes include cases with notice PCs from Employee BTs 90 and 91. Mailout volumes do not include cases from Partially Agreed BT 67 and 87. The Released Volume column for Recomp/Amended/PC 57, 95 includes volumes from BT 67 and 87. The Batch Type 67 and 87 columns display the volume of notices when the batch is updated to "AB" (Associated Batch) Status. TDC Count establishes the TDC indicator on notices to include the TDC invitation. The volume is input by the AUR Coordinator and must be maintained. Coordinators will have a one week window to input this volume (3 weeks prior to Notice Date). Coordinator can add to the count but can't reduce it once committed.

# Batch Parameters

1.4.19.13.3.2 (11-02-2020) Batch Parameters The AUR Coordinator is required to establish the operating parameters used for batch building. The following is set by the Coordinator for each batch type: Maximum batch count Maximum work unit count Default location Batch types are divided into three different categories. User Built (UB) - UB batches need to have the Maximum Batch Count, Maximum Work Unit Count, and Default location set. System Suspense (SS) - SS batches can only have the default location changed. Unit Suspense (US) - US batches are system defined and cannot be changed. Maximum Batch Count for suspense batches is limited to 9,999 cases in a batch. The Maximum Batch Count for any other batch type is 999. The Maximum Work Unit count is limited to 99 cases. The default location input must match a location number previously established by IT. To access the Batch Parameter screen take the following actions: Select the tax year from the AUR Year menu. Select AUR Coord from the AUR main menu.

The EMPLOYEE CASE SEID is used when an employee case is identified during regular processing. The system displays a message to transfer the case to the Employee Case SEID. The employee must be in "P" status. The AGE NUMBER reflects the number of days of aging for the Aged Response Batch Summary report. The ESTAB MAXIMUM REMARKS field is used to indicate the maximum number of characters (including spaces) the user can enter in the REMARKS field on the Research screen. The MAXIMUM CHECK DATE COUNT field limits the number of cases displayed within a particular notice date after No Response cases have been built. This prevents the system from displaying thousands of cases on a notice date that was not purged. MAXIMUM LABEL COUNT limits the number of labels generated by one request. MAXIMUM REPORT COUNT limits the number of SSNs that can be viewed or printed when accessing batch listings. Recommended volume of 9,999. DUT PARAGRAPH NUMBER is a designated paragraph sent to Taxpayers on how to respond using the Document Upload Tool (DUT). DUT START DATE is the date the paragraph will appear on the notice.
