An IRS audit can be triggered by numerous reasons such as
irregularities on a taxpayer's tax return or simply because the
taxpayer had bad luck of being selected at random.
Most commonly, a tax return will be audited because the
information reported on the return differs from other sources
IRS sources.This
can occur if you forget to report an item of income on your
return, the IRS records are incorrect or the IRS makes a
mistake.In this
case, the IRS first course of actions is to send you a letter to
explain the difference.Very often these types of matters are very easy to clear
up yourself without the assistance of a tax professional.One point of caution is that a quick and through response
should be made to these types of letters and all IRS
correspondence requesting a response.
Failure to respond timely will be looked upon very unfavorably
by the IRS and can result in your file being placed into
collections or an escalation of the matter to a wider audit. If you are
uncomfortable responding directly to the IRS yourself, please do

this matter as it is best to nip these items in the bud.Matters such as these can usually be easily an

This most common type of audit is called a Letter Audit. In
these cases, the IRS will send a letter to the taxpayer
informing the taxpayer that the IRS has made changes to their
tax return. In this letter the taxpayer is given the option of
either disputing the changes or accepting them and paying any
balance due. Sometimes the best response is simply to accept the
IRS changes and pay the balance, but in many cases, the IRS has
made mistakes and it may be worth it for the taxpayer to dispute
the amount owed. Most letter audits are resolved fairly quickly
and easily.
Unfortunately, many audits are not ease to manage and defend
when you are not familiar with IRS practice and procedures.An audit often questions the validity or existence of
business expenses or other deductions.Disallowance of you legitimate expenses often results in
