Federal Tax Examinations

If your return is selected for an examination, it doesn't always suggest that an error has been made - in fact, some examinations result in a refund to the taxpayer or acceptance of the return without change. As a taxpayer, your rights should be protected throughout the federal tax examination process. According to the IRS, those rights include:

  • Professional and courteous treatment by IRS employees
  • Privacy and confidentiality about tax matters
  • Knowing why the IRS is asking for information, how the IRS will use it and
    what will happen if the requested information is not provided
  • Representation, by oneself or an authorized representative
  • Appeal disagreements, both within the IRS and before the courts

Having a knowledgeable tax services specialist on your side can protect your rights and help to ensure the best possible outcome for your IRS audit. If you're looking for assistance with IRS audits in the Stamford area, contact the pros at SKG Tax today!

How Returns Are Selected For IRS Audits

If you've received an IRS audit notice, it's not necessarily cause for concern. The IRS uses a computer scoring system that rates the potential for change on returns based on past experience with similar returns. High-scoring returns are then screened by IRS personnel and referred for further review if they meet the criteria for audit. Other methods for selecting returns for examination:

  • Mis-matched information
  • Related examinations involving issues or transactions with other taxpayers
  • Large corporate returns are audited annually
  • Compliance initiatives, return preparer, or specific market segment connections
  • Potential participants in fraud
