Tax matters can easily get very complicated. If you find yourself struggling to make sense of your taxes or need assistance paying off back taxes, The Law Office of Edward T. Perry in Walnut Creek, CA, can help make the process easier. Request a consultation with my team by calling 925-472-6800 and allow us to see what we can do for your federal and state tax law issues.
We may get to the end of the audit with significant disagreed issues. The auditor does not have the final word. This is when you enter the world of tax controversies, in which you need to make full use of your ability to speak with the auditor's management, to seek audit reconsideration, to go to Appeals Division (which takes a fresh look at the matter in light of the "hazards of litigation") and then to Tax Court.
As with tax collection, all the way along, some deadlines must be adhered to to preserve your rights. For example, going to Tax Court is inexpensive and provides a prepayment judicial determination of the propriety of the auditor's (and Appeals') determinations. However, ignoring a statutory notice of deficiency can result in losing that right and requiring payment of the total liability before filing a refund claim and action in U.S. District Court.
Never assume that any certified mail letter from the IRS or the Tax Court is a scam or may otherwise be ignored. If there is any question about the validity of that letter, check with your representative immediately.
