Answer the Tax Notice in 10 Steps Before the Penalty Starts

A letter from the IRS is not a judgment. It starts a process with steps and dates. Here are the 10 steps, and where to check each one yourself.
(1) Read the notice number and the reply date.
(2) Read the IRS publication the notice points to (Publications 1, 594, 3498 A).
(3) Check the law. Publications are not law. Zimmerman v. Commissioner, 71 T.C. 367, 371 (1978). The law is Title 26 of the U.S. Code and its regulations.
(4) Decide whether to bring in a tax professional (Form 2848; Taxpayer Advocate Service, 26 U.S.C. § 7803(c)).
(5) Agree, partly agree, or disagree, with documents.
(6) Answer in writing by the date on the notice.
(7) Independent Office of Appeals, 26 U.S.C. § 7803(e); Publication 5.
(8) Notice of deficiency: 90 days to petition the U.S. Tax Court, 26 U.S.C. § 6213(a).
(9) Appeal, 26 U.S.C. § 7482.
(10) Determination, 26 U.S.C. § 7481.
Watch for: Form 870 waives your right to go to Tax Court before the tax is assessed. A final notice of intent to levy has its own 30 day appeal on Form 12153.
