We have seen plenty of IRS correspondence letters and notices.  While some believe the IRS may not exactly be human, they do occasionally make mistakes.  Other times, the notices correctly remind parties to prepare and file certain tax returns.  Sometimes, the IRS questions one or more items in a tax return, and supporting documentation or research for the position taken is needed to satisfy the IRS’s request for information.

We can help with these matters.  If the taxpayer does not wish to communicate directly with the IRS, we can prepare the paperwork needed which authorizes us to deal directly with the IRS in connection with certain matters.  In general, we do not believe it is a good idea for most people to deal directly with the IRS because, simply stated, the IRS is trained at what they do, and most people are not trained in resolving IRS issues (but we are).
