We efficiently handle all aspects of tax representation through phone, fax, mail, and email.

Receiving any letter from the IRS can be alarming. It’s advisable to seek the help of an experienced tax accountant as many IRS notices contain errors. Although not all IRS letters are bad, an audit notice can be particularly concerning. An experienced tax accountant can help you navigate the complexities of an audit and resolve the issue efficiently. In many cases, we can review the IRS notice and determine whether professional assistance is necessary or if you can handle the matter independently.

A well-prepared tax return is one of the best ways to avoid an IRS or state audit. Tax returns with obvious errors or inconsistent information are more likely to be audited. The IRS conducts five types of audits, each requiring a different response. It’s crucial to understand the differences.

We offer a free initial consultation. Whether you prefer a face-to-face meeting at our office or a telephone consultation, you will speak directly with an experienced CPA who will provide you with a confidential consultation at no cost. We ensure that your taxpayer rights are respected by the IRS. By choosing us as your representative, you will no longer have to deal directly with the IRS.

What are the Five Types of Audits the IRS Conducts?

Correspondence Audit
This is the most common type of audit and is conducted via mail. The IRS requests additional documentation or information to support specific items on your tax return.
Office Audit
Conducted at an IRS office, this audit requires you to bring specific documents and records for review. The IRS will schedule an appointment and inform you of the documents needed.
Field Audit
This is a more comprehensive audit conducted at your home, place of business, or your accountant's office. An IRS agent will visit to examine your records in detail.
TCMP Audit
The Taxpayer Compliance Measurement Program Audit is a detailed review requiring full verification of your tax return. It updates IRS data for future audit selection.
Random Audit
These audits are selected purely by random chance, not because of any specific issue or red flag on your tax return. They can be as comprehensive as TCMP audits and are used to ensure overall compliance with tax laws.
