<prompt> Human: ive never dealt with irs. When you get a job, does the irs mail you stuff? Is it Around the tax times or any other times? What do they mail? Are they different documents if you are an employee or independent contractor?  <response>: No they dont mail you anything unless you get audited. However your employer will give you a W-4 when you start working there and a W-2 when tax season comes around.
