Ider IRS Audit Defense Attorney
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is obligated by the law to ensure that taxes are paid accordingly and go after those who have failed to fulfill their obligations. To ensure that this is the case, they regularly conduct audits to ensure that their records are up-to-date and no one is violating any tax laws under their watch.
Taxpayers make it a point to double-check tax records before filing them to the IRS. However, there are cases where certain entries may be questionable, and you will need to clear them with the IRS immediately. If there are inconsistencies or errors discovered during their audit checks, you need a team who can help you clear them to prevent possible penalties filed against you.
If you want to prepare for your IRS audit or you want to make sure your financial documents are accurate, don’t hesitate to contact our Ider IRS audit defense team at Defense Tax Partners. We can make the auditing process stress-free for you as we can help you with the documentation, data review, and represent you during the audit process. Rest assured we will do our best to reduce possible penalties if discrepancies are discovered during the review.

What is an IRS Tax Audit?
Contrary to popular opinion, the IRS audit is done regularly and done at random to ensure that there are no inconsistencies in their records and that they are getting the right taxes from the taxpayers. If you find yourself included in the audit, it isn’t a bad thing because it is standard procedure. But, it can be very stressful considering the reputation of the agency for being very thorough with their audit checks.
If there is a single error in the records and you cannot prove that it is a minor mistake, you may face fines and even jail time.
While the people included in the audit are selected at random, the agency also selects people who may show one of the following hallmarks in their financial records:
1. Data entry errors
2. Unreported and unexplained income
3. Disproportionate or high deductions (ex. Charitable donations, home office deductions, etc.)
4. Non-existent dependants
5. Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC)
6. Self-employed records with high losses
If you are selected to undergo an audit, you may be audited through one of the following methods:
Correspondence audit – For minor issues or clarifications, a correspondence audit is used by the agency to conduct the audit. In this method, the taxpayer must send the right documents requested by the IRS for them to cross-reference the data in their records.
Office audits – If the issue that needs to be clarified requires a more thorough review, you may be requested by the IRS to bring the documents in person to the nearest IRS agency in your area. Rescheduling the office audits is permitted, and the agency must be notified in advance.
Field examinations – The IRS may also do the audits in person at your home or business. Should this be the audit process you will undergo, you will need to be prepared because it is the agency’s most comprehensive auditing process. You may request a change in venue if the setup and schedule do not work for you.
Our team at Defense Tax Partners can be with you from Day 1 of these audits and stand beside you to be your legal team as the audit is taking place. We can even be the ones to speak to the IRS during the audit, reducing the risk of answering incorrectly when the agency tries to clarify something from your financial documents.
