The business version of the compliance report

Letter 6574 is the IRS Business Tax Compliance Report. It summarizes filing and payment compliance. Individuals and sole proprietors use Letter 6201.

Where to find it

In Business Tax Account, open Tax records and download the business tax compliance report. Review the entity, report date, and any issues before sending it to an organization requesting proof of compliance.

Do not assume every report has the same verification features: the IRS currently limits digital authentication to compliance reports downloaded through Individual Account.

If a reported issue surprises you

Compare the report with filing acknowledgments and payment records. Ask the requesting organization what it needs and when it needs it. Keep any application deadline separate from deadlines on existing IRS correspondence.
