Leatherneck BookkeepingFinal Notice of Intent to Levy: What It Means
LT11, Letter 1058 and CP90 are some of the most serious letters the IRS sends. Here’s what they mean.
Don’t face the IRS alone. What you tell the IRS can affect your options, and once it’s on record it’s hard to undo. Call Kathleen first.
What this letter means
A Final Notice of Intent to Levy tells you the IRS plans to take money or property to pay your balance, like part of your paycheck, money in your bank account, or certain payments owed to you. It also tells you about your right to a hearing. These letters have a deadline printed on them, so don’t set it aside.
Which letters these are
- LT11 and Letter 1058: final notices usually sent by IRS collections
- CP90: a final notice sent by mail from IRS service centers
- Earlier letters like the CP504 often come first
What to ask about
- Which options may fit you: a payment plan, an Offer in Compromise, or currently not collectible status
- Whether missing returns need to be filed
- What your deadline means for your case
What Kathleen does
- Reviews your IRS records (with your signed Form 8821)
- Explains your letter and your deadline in plain words
- Negotiates, argues and fights for you with the IRS
Every case is different, and the IRS makes the final call.

I’m Kathleen. I’ve spent 25+ years in taxes, since 2001. Leatherneck Bookkeeping is Marine Corps family owned and based in Nampa, Idaho, and I help people in the Treasure Valley and across the country. I named it for my late husband, Steve, a CWO5 in the U.S. Marine Corps. He taught me to never leave anyone to face a hard thing alone, and that’s how I treat every person who calls me.
