Audits

An IRS audit can be initiated solely using a statistical formula that notes something out of the norm. An audit can also be related to other examinations involving issues or transactions with other tax payers. After you are selected for an audit, an experienced auditor reviews your return. The auditor may accept your return, or if the auditor notes something questionable, they will forward the return for group examination. If your account is selected for audit, you will be notified by mail, never by phone.

Your audit may be conducted in person or by phone; either way, you should have a Federally Licensed Tax Professional represent you.
