<prompt> Human: I received a form in the mail from a local IRS agent informing me that my landlord owes the federal government 150k in unpaid 1040 taxes. I looked up the agent and office it was from and its a legitimate IRS office that serves my area.Im waiting to here back from the officer after leaving him a voicemail, but Im just wondering if anyone has any idea how things may proceed from here. The legal services at my university said they had never seen a case like this before, but suspect that it is legitimate, and my aunt who works as a paralegal in a property law firm had similar things to say.Is my landlord now effectively the IRS? What if my current landlord tries to evict me? What if the plumbing gets fucked up and I need the landlord to pay for property maintenance?This is all a very weird situation, and Id appreciate any insight you may be able to lend.  <response>: This might be a good time for utaxmankeith to show up, but it seems like calling the IRS at the federal level, giving them the nameinformation of your local agent, and asking if this is a real thing that happens would be good. At the very least it gives you a paper trail if everything goes sideways.
