When this happens you will get a letter from IRS. It will either be a correspondence audit or an audit with a revenue agent. Correspondence audits are difficult because you are dealing with an address and not a person. If it is an audit with a revenue agent, your letter will ask you to call for an appointment or they will tell you a time to appear at the IRS office. At this point you are going to make a decision whether to represent yourself or hire a qualified representative. If you hire us to represent you, we will get a power of attorney (IRS form 2848) and you generally have no contact with IRS. If it is a local agent, we will likely know the agent and have had previous audits with them. If you represent yourself, we often enter the audit after you have met with the agent and don't feel comfortable with them or their proposed changes to your tax return. Our experience is that the best results are achieved when we deal exclusively with the Internal Revenue Service and you only provide us the necessary documents they are requesting. If we believe the agent takes a position we don't agree with you still have options and we will request a manager's conference or file an appeal for a hearing with an appeal's officer on any outstanding issues.
