Call Tax Debt Advisors when the IRS Audits Your Tax Return

The IRS computers score each return as to how likely a return will be audited.  If your deductions are higher than average, you are more likely to be audited.  If your deductions are much higher than the average, chances are you can expect to get an audit notice in Arizona.

Most Arizona audits are handled through correspondence.  If the IRS auditor in AZ wants an “office audit” you should be concerned enough to seek professional help.  Scott Allen E.A. of Tax Debt Advisors will usually request the auditor to conduct their review in his office.

Many times the auditor will inspect from a distance your home to see what kind of house you live in and the number and kind of vehicles you drive.  It is very critical that any deadlines the IRS has put in writing are kept.  Missing deadlines or not showing up to your scheduled audit is a red flag that you have something to hide or want to avoid.

Having a professional represent you is critical if you are likely to lose your temper or act defensive.  The cost of retaining the right representative will save you money in the long run in most cases and in every case if your records are incomplete.  Call Scott Allen E.A. of Tax Debt Advisors for a free consultation in Arizona at 480-926-9300.

Tax Debt Advisors, Inc.–information on IRS Audit Red Flags

Here is some information about IRS audit red flags for Chandler Arizona residents.  Some can be avoided and others cannot.  However, if you are entitled to a deduction, take it.  Don’t avoid a deduction because it might trigger an audit.  Here are the top ten reasons taxpayers get audited:

  • Income is too high—not much you can do here but it is facts that the higher your income the higher the chances you will be selected for an audit even if you don’t have other audit red flags.
  • Omitting income that has been reported to the IRS—the IRS computers match up income reported to them, to income reported on your return.  If you have omitted a 1099 or W-2, the IRS will send you a notice.
  • Large charitable donations of property—remember to file form 8283 for donations over $500 and have an appraisal.
  • Home Office deduction—everyone wants to deduct what amounts to personal living expenses against business income.  Remember that the area of your home that you want to write-off expenses must be used exclusively and regularly as your principal place of business.  A corner of your bedroom or kitchen is not acceptable.
  • Rental losses—active participation allows you to write-off up to $25,000 of loss subject to phase out rules.  Real estate professionals who spend more than 50% of their time and 750 hours each year can deduct losses with no limitations.
  • Excessive business meals and travel and entertainment expenses—it just seems to be too tempting for self-employed individuals to try to take advantage of these deductions and the IRS knows that.
  • Writing-off 100% of business use of vehicle—just reporting a more realistic % can avoid a tax audit in this area.
  • Businesses that lose money—there must be a profitable business motive.  If you are trying to deduct each year losses from what amounts to a “hobby,” expect an IRS audit.
  • Higher than average deductions—deductions that are higher than average compared to income reported is a huge red flag.

Work w/ Scott Allen E.A. near Tempe AZ if you get an IRS CP-2000 letter

IRS CP-2000 Letter in Tempe AZ

If you forget to include income on your tax return that was reported to the IRS, you will get a Tempe AZ CP-2000 letter.  Unless someone has stolen your Social Security number, the income items are generally correct.  What is not taken into consideration are any deductions that can be matched against the income.  A good example is a stock sale.  Say for example you did not report a sale of Ford Stock for $15,000 you would get a CP-2000 with a tax bill of $3,000 plus interest and penalties if you are in a 20% tax bracket.  But if you paid $20,000 originally for the Ford stock, you actually lost $5,000 and would be due a refund.  Many Tempe AZ CP-2000 notices are coming for forgiveness of debt issues on credit cards and foreclosed home.

If you received a CP-2000 Notice in Tempe AZ, call Scott Allen E.A. and get a professional opinion on what is your best option to minimize the liability and prevent the IRS from levying your bank accounts or garnishing your wages.  Scott offers a free consultation and can be reached at 480-926-9300.
