Tax Services: IRS Audits

What are the risks of getting an IRS Audit? The odds are low that your tax return will be picked for an IRS audit. The IRS does not have sufficient personnel and resources to examine every tax return, so the IRS selects those tax returns, which, upon preliminary inspection, have high audit potential -- those that are most likely to result in a substantial tax deficiency.

In recent years, less than 2% of all individual income tax returns have been audited. However, your chances for an IRS tax audit are higher depending upon certain types of income, certain amounts of income, your profession, the types of transactions, and the types of tax deductions claimed on your tax return.

All IRS audits should be taken seriously though, because they often lead to other tax years and other tax deductions not originally stated in the audit letter.

Are you being audited?

... by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), Franchise Tax Board, State Board of Equalization, Employment Development Department or other State Department of Taxation?

Ultimately, this can cost the taxpayer hundreds, even thousands of dollars

Remember, in addition to any 'findings' by the auditor of unpaid taxes, you will also be assessed interest and penalties.

Would you go into a courtroom without a tax attorney or tax lawyer?
