California IRS Offices to Contact Third Parties for IRS Tax Audit and IRS Tax Collection
Los Angeles Tax Attorney – In 1998, the Congress amended Code Section 7602 to prohibit Internal Revenue Service employees including IRS Agents and IRS Auditors from contacting third parties with respect to the taxpayer’s IRS tax liability without providing reasonable advance notice to the taxpayer that third-party contacts may be made.
Most IRS tax attorneys and tax lawyers who resolve tax problems were concerned that (1) that such contacts by the IRS may have negative effect on the taxpayer’s business and could damage the IRS taxpayer’s reputation in the community, and (2) that taxpayers should have the opportunity to resolve his tax problems through his tax attorney before the IRS contacted third parties.
IRS third party contact notice provides a general tax notice to the taxpayer before most third-party contacts are made, and then to periodically (or upon the taxpayer’s request) provide the taxpayer with a record of the persons contacted by the Internal Revenue Service. If you are a taxpayer located in Los Angles or California with IRS tax problems, IRS tax audit or IRS tax levy collection, make sure you contact IRS tax attorney so that your IRS tax rights are protected.
