Are you familiar with the Taxpayer Bill of Rights? Taxpayers have specific rights, which include a wide variety of issues and topics, when they interact with the IRS. The Bill of Rights covers what to expect when filing a return; paying taxes; responding to an IRS letter; going through an audit; and appealing an IRS decision. No. 1 on the list is the “right to be informed.” That is, taxpayers have the right to know what they need to do to comply with tax laws; have a clear explanation of tax laws; and be informed of IRS decisions about their tax accounts. Next on the list is the “right to quality service.” Contact us www.mjscpa.com/news/
