Tax Return Audits

An income tax audit is the examination of a business or individual tax return by the Internal Revenue Service or state tax authority for the purpose of determining if the correct amount of tax has been paid. The majority of audits are handled by mail. However, face-to-face audits do occur. It's critical to thoroughly study your records and to provide a complete and fast response.

If your tax return is audited, it will be examined closely to confirm that you reported all of your income and claimed only the deductions and credits authorized by law. Audits aren't normally conducted at random. Based on a sophisticated set of factors, the returns that are selected are those most likely to contain errors. The taxing authority normally has three years from the time you file your return to begin and complete an audit. If audited, the examination typically begins a year after you file your return.

In an audit, the IRS agent's decision is not final. You have the option of filing an appeal. You can seek professional assistance and even have your tax preparer represent you in an IRS audit.

We will walk with you through the audit to help you be as prepared as possible.
