What triggers an IRS audit?+
Common triggers: high Schedule C deductions relative to income, large charitable contributions, home office on a W-2 return, foreign accounts, EITC claims, cryptocurrency, large business losses, or simply random selection. The IRS audits about 0.4% of returns annually.
Should I respond to the IRS audit notice myself?+
You can — many simple correspondence audits are resolvable by mailing the requested documentation. But once you respond, the IRS uses that response as the basis for assessment. Professional review before responding is recommended, especially if larger amounts or multiple items are at issue.
What happens if I owe additional tax after the audit?+
If the audit results in additional tax owed, you can pay, set up an installment agreement, or appeal. The IRS charges interest from the original due date plus a 20% accuracy-related penalty in some cases. Negligence or fraud penalties are higher. We help negotiate the resolution.
How far is your office from Springfield?+
