TP filed 2016 in March 2020(when service was shut down) with a refund to be carried to 2017. TP filed 2017 in October 2020 including co of refund. TP gets letter from IRS saying credits do not mach. They have not processed the 2016 return yet. How do we respond to the balance due notice for 2017 when it does show a refund?

Respond to the notice describing what occurred. Ask the irs to process the 2016 return, apply the credit forward, issue a new notice showing, and issue the refund. If the taxpayer has proof of mailing for the 2016, include a copy."Taxation is the price we pay for failing to build a civilized society." ~ Mark Skousen
