  • Writing and filing a Formal Protest, including required information
  • Alternative Dispute Resolution options available to clients
  • Negotiation and time limitations
  • Preparing and submitting a Tax Court petition to preserve a client's rights

Learning objectives

  • Identify strategies regarding in person, correspondence, or phone conferences with IRS Appeals
  • Know how to utilize IRS Appeals, the only level of appeal within the IRS, to avoid costly, contentious, and time-consuming court trials
