Appeals
What You Should Know
Publication 1 Your Rights as a Taxpayer is one of the most important documents the IRS is required to provide you. The publication outlines your rights as a taxpayer when faced with an IRS collection or audit situation, and explains such rights related to privacy, representation, and appeals and judicial review, among many others. An IRS appeal can take the form of a discussion with an IRS employee’s manager, a formal review by the IRS Appeals Office, a judicial review by the U.S. Tax Court, or all three.
How We Can Help
Even more important than knowing your various appeal rights is knowing when to use them. In most cases, IRS actions can be appealed before and after such actions have taken place, but within certain timeframes. While working your case, we will ensure your appeal rights are preserved and exercised at the right times. The timeliness and type of appeal request are crucial elements for an effective appeal. If an administrative appeal proves ineffective, we will guide you through the judicial appeal process.
