Frequently Asked Questions

What triggers an IRS audit?+

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.
