So for 2020 I filed my tax returns. However there was a discrepancy that I needed to correct so I amended it. Got that sorted out thinking it was over. Eventually got a letter saying I didn’t owe them anything. Thinking the matter was resolved, I threw that away.
Today, got a letter from the IRS in the mail dated as June 28th saying I owed them $16.00 by July 28th, which has obviously passed. This letter doesn’t seem to mention the amendment I made so I wondered if it was an old notice from before.
If it is then nothing to worry about. But if it isn’t, wtf happened?

As others have said; always save evidence for years. Pretty sure the IRS can request your financial data from up to eight years back if they choose. As far as your situation goes...I'd send them an email. They probably have a help address for this sort of thing. [spoiler]Sorry, all out of salt.[/spoiler]
