An IRS audit (the IRS calls it an "examination") is a review of your return to verify income, deductions, and credits. Audits range from a simple mailed letter asking for one document (a correspondence audit) to a detailed office or field audit. The most important thing to know: you have the right to be represented, and most clients never speak to the IRS directly once we step in.
Why representation changes the outcome
- We respond to the auditor on your behalf, presenting only what is requested — nothing more.
- We organize and substantiate your deductions so they hold up.
- We prevent the audit from expanding into other years or issues unnecessarily.
- If we disagree with the result, we handle the appeal.
Your rights during an audit
The Taxpayer Bill of Rights guarantees you the right to professional representation, the right to know why the IRS is asking for information, and the right to appeal. We make sure those rights are enforced at every step.
Do not ignore an audit letter
Missing an audit deadline can lead to the IRS disallowing deductions automatically and assessing additional tax. If you have received a notice, the time to act is now — even if you think the return was correct.
