Tax Audit Representation

An IRS Tax Audit Representation is a process in which a taxpayer hires a tax attorney or other qualified representative to represent them during an audit by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The IRS has the authority to audit taxpayers to ensure that they have accurately reported their income, deductions, and credits on their tax returns.

The IRS Process for Tax Audit Representation is governed by Rule 10.3 of the IRS's Rules of Practice and Procedure, which allows taxpayers to be represented by a qualified individual during an audit. This can include a tax attorney, a certified public accountant (CPA), or an enrolled agent.
