Notices CP12 (A-R) tell you the IRS has information in their file which leads them to believe that there is a calculation error on your return. However, the error could be faulty information rather than a miscalculation. Of course, you should compare your tax return with the item the IRS adjusted to see if a math error is readily apparent.
Types of Notice CP12
Notice CP12A is usually used for changes to your Earned Income Credit.
Notice CP12E or CP12F is for changes to Employee Business Expenses.
Notice CP12M is for changes to the Making Work Pay credit or Government Retiree Credit.
Notice CP12R is for changes to the Recovery Rebate Credit. (See examples below)
Is the problem:
a document mismatch,
a mischaracterization,
