Issues with the IRS
If you have had problems with the IRS, a CT tax lawyer will be able to help you. Whether you were audited or had another dispute come up, one of our experienced lawyers will be able to look at your situation to see what the best way of getting you out a bind will be. We can look at old documents to see what kind of back taxes you may owe and whether or not we can help get some of the problems forgiven. Dealing with the IRS can be frightening and confusing at times, so it is important to have someone on your side who understands tax laws and will have your best interest at heart.
Responding To IRS Notice
If you have received an IRS notice, you must consider speaking with our team right away. We can help you assess the best way to respond based on the situation, and what will protect your rights as a tax paying person. An official IRS notice will always be mailed to you, as they do not communicate through email. You do have a designated period of time to respond to this notice, and if you fail to do so, penalties may apply.
What our team can do is negotiate on your behalf by using our extensive knowledge in tax law to your benefit. We know that getting any kind of mail from the IRS can be stressful, and many of us may be tempted to not open it at all. But unfortunately, when it comes to the IRS, your response will be required eventually.
Audits and Appeals
The International Revenue Service may submit a notice of intent to audit a tax return. The intention of this audit is to verify the information you provided on a tax form, such as expenses and income. The IRS uses various factors when choosing which tax returns to audit. Most tax audits are chosen by a computer system through formula analytics. These computers run an analysis on tax returns based on the chances of being accurate.
As soon as you receive notice of an audit, remember that this doesn’t mean there is an issue. Sometimes, it may be because you are due a refund after the audit is performed, or the IRS may choose to accept the original return you filed. If the IRS decides that it wants to obtain more information, they will send a letter that says your return has been selected for audit. There are a few different methods of audits done by the IRS:
- Office Audit: you are required to show up to an IRS office meeting to speak with an auditor. The examiner will request certain documents be submitted.
- Field Audit: the IRS wants to visit your place of business, personal home, or tax preparer’s office to do the audit.
- Correspondence Audit: this audit is handled by mail, where the IRS will request you send in specific documents that support your claims on the tax return.
