IRS Audit Defense

Help With IRS Audits

At Community Tax Relief, we never advise any taxpayer to represent themselves in an IRS audit, no matter how simple it may seem. Even if you honestly believe you filled your entire tax return correctly, meeting with the IRS can be a very intimidating experience. Knowing the IRS wants to take a second, closer look at your tax return or period of returns can be a very nerve-racking experience.

This is especially true if you have a face-to-face audit. Traditionally, the majority of IRS audits are done via correspondence. In other words, most IRS audits are in the form of letters asking for explanations of various tax items on a tax return or requesting supporting documentation. The fact of the matter is that on average only about one-third of all IRS audits are done on a face-to-face basis with a revenue agent, tax compliance officer, or tax examiner. More than likely, an IRS audit will result in changes to the original filled tax returns. These changes may be positive or negative for the taxpayer, but depends on the individual’s situation.

Audit Reconsideration Analysis

If you have already experienced an Audit, and are now facing a looming tax liability, you should contact Community Tax Relief immediately for a possible Audit Reconsideration Analysis. As a Taxpayer, you have the right to contest any prior audit findings by supplying additional documentation, which may result in lowering your overall tax liability tremendously.
