The first call when a client receives an IRS notice is to their tax preparer, and this webinar provides a first response guide to protect appeal rights, handle notices and resolve issues quickly and efficiently. We’ll identify common IRS letters and notices, and translate common CP/LTR codes, like “CP2000,” into plain English. We’ll map what stage of the tax administration lifecycle the taxpayer is actually in (assessment vs. collection) and show how to use transcripts and documentation to decide whether to concede, contest or escalate.
