Sometime last year I bought a car for $12,000 at a dealership and I received a letter from the IRS weeks later. I honestly do not remember what the letter said but I do know I got it because I did made a transaction over $10,000.

I feel like I should but shouldn't be worried about it. I received about $8,900 of that money from AllState because one of their clients totaled my car.

How could I receive another copy of that letter?

Should I be concerned? 

Was I suppose to show that letter to my tax person when I file taxes?

I'm totally lost. Help.

    If you made a payment in cash for $10K or more the IRS is informed of the transaction by the bank ... that was an informational notice only and has nothing to do with your tax return.
