Missing Document Follow-up (Final Warning)

Final notice before filing an extension or removing client from current filing queue due to missing documents.

Subject Line

Email Body

Dear {{client_name}},

This is a final notice regarding your {{service_type}}.

Despite previous reminders on {{previous_reminder_dates}}, we have not received the following required documents:

**Important:** If we do not receive these documents by {{absolute_deadline}}, we will {{action_taken}}.

This is not a decision we make lightly, but we must manage our workload to serve all clients effectively during this busy season.

**To Avoid This:**
Please upload your documents immediately: {{portal_link}}

Or contact me directly at {{phone_number}} to discuss your situation.

**If You Need More Time:**
If circumstances have changed and you need to delay your filing, please let me know right away. We can discuss filing an extension, which would give you until {{extension_deadline}} to gather your documents. Note that an extension to file is not an extension to pay - any taxes owed are still due by the original deadline.

Please respond to this email or call me by {{absolute_deadline}} to confirm your intentions.

Regards,

Tip: Replace the variables in {{brackets}} with your specific information before sending.
