Representation Before the IRS

“We know first-hand that the IRS’s matching program doesn’t always work so we highly recommend that you seek the advice of a seasoned tax professional before you respond to any notices“

Received a CP2000 notice from the IRS and wondering what to do? We know that it can be unsettling when you receive a notice from the IRS. Often the first thought is, “what did I do to deserve this?” Rest assured knowing that you may have prepared a complete and accurate tax return and it’s the logic programmed into IRS’ automated computer system that caused the notice to be sent anyway. 

The Automated Underreporter (AUR) system is an automated system that tries to match information reported by third-parties (employer, banks, brokerage firms, and other tax information providers) to information presented on your tax return. We know first-hand that the IRS’s matching program doesn’t always work so we highly recommend that you seek the advice of a seasoned tax professional before you respond to any notices. Or better yet, let us respond for you.

Here is what you can expect . . .

• We will work with you to gather the necessary information to prepare a complete and accurate response;
• We will explain to you how the Code and Regulations apply to the situation; and
• We will help you understand the tax consequence, if any, related to under reported income.
