The IRS does not call taxpayers, nor does the Social Security Administration. This time of year is ripe with scam phone calls from both agencies. If the IRS needs to contact you for any reason, it will by way of the regular mail system. The Social Security Administration is big on using the mail system also. If you fall victim to a scam, please use these resources:
