Reading Time: 2 minutes

Do you know what is scarier than owing money to the IRS? 

Waking up one morning to find out that you’re being audited!  While tax audits can be scary, we make every attempt to not make it a big deal for you.  You can add an extra layer of protection to your tax filing process by purchasing our Audit Defense Protection. 

If you receive a notice from the IRS or your state tax authority, one of our qualified tax professionals will represent you in the audit process.  We will analyze the notice, inform you of your options, and respond to the notice on your behalf as necessary.

What happens if you become the subject of an audit?

Here is what ezTaxReturn will do for you:

• Conduct a full-scale review of your submitted tax filing and related documentation.
• Review your tax return with you to flag audit-related issues and concerns, if necessary.
• Guide you in responding to all inquiries from the IRS. In the event you want us to deal directly with the IRS, then we require a power of attorney from you.
• Schedule and attend all audit appointments between you and the IRS, in the event of an in-person audit.

What’s not covered in Audit Defense Protection?

Audit defense protection is not an excuse to be less careful or more aggressive when filing your tax return or determining which deductions or credits to claim. This service exists to represent you in the event of an audit. Audit defense does not cover the following:

• Audit Defense is not insurance against an audit.
• Audit Defense will not protect you against paying additional taxes owed that are discovered through the audit process.
• Appeals to IRS or State audit decisions [Generally handled by hiring a legal counsel, which is not in our scope of offer]

How can you enable us to assist you better in the event of an audit?

Our ability to represent you successfully is dependent upon the quality of the documentation you maintain to support the information in your return. We therefore encourage you to keep organized records of all your income and expenses. Adequate documentation must be provided in a timely fashion to minimize the financial impact of an audit.
