FAQs
IRS Audit Representation is the process of having a qualified professional, such as a CPA, handle all communication and response activities with the IRS on your behalf during an audit. When the IRS selects a return for examination, it typically sends a notice requesting documentation or clarification on specific items. Tsamutalis & Company explains that an audit does not automatically mean something is wrong, but it does require a carefully organized and documented response. What happens next depends on the type of audit. Some are conducted by mail and require only the submission of specific records. Others involve in-person interviews or office examinations where a representative must attend and respond to IRS questions. IRS Audit Representation ensures that the taxpayer is not navigating that process alone and that the responses provided to the IRS are accurate, complete, and presented in the most favorable way possible.
