ORDER
Maurice B. Foley Chief Judge
An imperfect petition commencing this case was filed on July 13, 2021. Petitioners seek review of the notice of deficiency dated June 7, 2021, issued to them for tax year 2018. On December 20, 2021, petitioners filed a Letter Dated December 14, 2021. On December 20, 2021, petitioners further filed a First Supplement to their letter. Among other things, in that Letter, as supplemented, petitioners state that: (1) an IRS Notice CP2005 dated October 4, 2021, has been issued to petitioners; and (2) that Notice CP2005 informed them that the IRS inquiry concerning petitioners' 2018 income tax return is closed, and that $0.00 is the amount due from petitioners for 2018. Under the circumstances the Court will direct the parties to confer as to the present status of this case. It is therefore
ORDERED that at a reasonable date and time, but no later than by January 19, 2022, the parties shall confer as to the present status of this case, including (1) the issues and/or evidence concerning petitioners' proposed 2018 income tax liability, and (2) whether the parties possibly might agree to submit proposed decision documents. It is further
ORDERED that, on or before February 9, 2022, respondent shall file a report concerning the then present status of this case.
