IRS catching up
I’m a bit screwed, and been straight up avoiding this - riding the wave of IRS delays and just wishing it would go away.
In 2019 I got divorced, and withdrew money from an IRA. I’m not sure what else happened that year as it’s been a while, but IRS claims I owed 93k for that year. They sent me a notice to pay by June 1. It’s a CP71C.
2020 was the pandemic , I got paid off, got a huge severance , stocks vesting etc - getting a tax bill for 137k, also got a CP17C with a dude date of May 26.
Lastly, just noticed that my passport has been suspended as of July/August 2025 - they had sent a notice,
Questions - on a level of 1-10, how f’ed am I and what’s the best next thing to do to rectify ?
And no - I don’t have the $ to pay it, nor will I or do I anticipate.
Just want some guidance on what I should do immediately to stop this from becoming worse …

Adding link to comment for anyone wondering what if anything I’ve done since 2019/2020 around this matter.
