Why use Scott Allen, E.A. with Tax Debt Advisors, Inc?

Who should be your Arizona IRS Representative?

  • E.A. stands for Enrolled Agent.  Enrolled Agents are authorized to represent clients in all 50 states.  Attorneys and CPA are only able to represent themselves to clients as Attorneys or CPA’s in the states that they are licensed.
  • An E.A. or Enrolled Agent must pass a rigorous test regarding their knowledge of tax law.  The Bar exam given to Attorney’s has almost no requirements for tax knowledge.  The same is true of the CPA exam.
  • IRS agents and IRS officers are known as “bill collectors” and are hired to get the largest payment or settlement they can—that’s their job.  Scott Allen E.A. is there to make sure you get the smallest payment or settlement allowed by law.
  • It can be very intimidating working with IRS agents and officers.  With Scott Allen E.A. you will be put at ease regarding your IRS problem and know that it is being handled by a competent IRS representative.
  • Many IRS employees are incompetent or only willing to do the minimum amount of work to keep their manager off their back.  You need IRS representation to keep your IRS agent or officer “on their toes”.  Scott Allen E.A. can request a conference with your IRS agent or officer if he senses that he is getting the “run around”.  That is something most taxpayers are unable to detect.
  • Not always but occasionally IRS agents or officers will take advantage of your lack of IRS procedures and policies.  IRS agents or officers know that an Enrolled Agent is knowledgeable of IRS procedures and policies.
  • Most tax preparers including CPA’s are not experienced in working with IRS resolution work.  Scott Allen E.A. expertise is in resolving IRS problems.

Don’t put your head I the sand.  It is only a matter of time before the IRS catches up to you.  Put time on your side by contacting Scott Allen E.A. today at 480-926-9300 for a free consultation and put your mind at ease.

Common IRS Audit Adjustments in Arizona: IRS help from Tax Debt Advisors, Inc

 IRS Audit Adjustments in Arizona

  • Auditors will consider all deposits to your bank account as income.  Keep records of gifts from parents, refunds on returned merchandise and other similar transactions to show the auditor why that item was not income.
  • The most common audit adjustment comes from mileage claimed on the return.  If I ever have a client who is audited on mileage that actually has a mileage log that they kept concurrently, will then be able to say, “I have seen everything, now!”  Taking actual expenses may be the best way to go if you want to be able to substantial your automobile expenses.
  • Personal use items.  This would be like claiming you use your vehicle 98% for business purposes.  That means that you almost never shop for food, take a vacation, go to church, visit friends, or go to the movies.  Unless you are Howard Hughes, make your % something reasonable.  Believe it or not almost all of my clients who have one car, when I ask them what percent they used the vehicle in the business, the first time, will say “100%.”  This extends to home office expense as well.  One client tried to convince me he lived in his back yard so he could deduct all of his housing expenses on his schedule C.  If you have one phone and it is a cell phone, allocate a reasonable amount for personal use.

Errors of the kind mentioned will almost always lead to other years being audited.  If have been really out of line you might even get yourself  put on the IRS Auditors bulletin board that has this heading—If You Need An Audit To Impress Your Manger Call (your name and phone number)—just kidding, but sometimes it feels that way.

IRS help for the Arizona Medical Professionals

IRS Help in Arizona

There is only on germ or virus is more contagious than any other known by the medical professional—that is virus of bad IRS advice pass amount your own peers.  If you want accurate information that you can rely on get it from a professional in another field that specializes in that subject.

Most of our medical professionals get into trouble with the IRS due to bad advice, especially in the areas of investments, structure of their practices, and what they can take as business and personal deductions.

We can help medical professionals in the following specialties:

Doctors, Dentists, Chiropractors, Nursing Home Providers, Hospital Administrators, Hospital employees, Surgeons, Podiatrists, Endodontists, Pediatricians, Maxillofacial Surgeons, Plastic surgeons, Periodontists, Psychiatrists, Psychiatrists, Anesthesiologists, Urologists, Prosthodontists, Urologists, Anesthesiologists, Allergists, Dermatologists, Immunologists, Emergency Room Physicians, Oncologists, Family Practice Physicians, Obstetricians, Neurologists, Gynecologists, Orthodontists, Internists, Oral Surgeons, Hematologists, Cardiologists, Radiologists, Pathologists, Psychologists, Therapists, Nursing, Gastroenterologists, Pharmacists, Endocrinologists, Nephrologists, and Pulmonologists.   

Why is the IRS making the medical professional a target for IRS audits?  The first is the number of audits that result in additional revenues.  The second and most important reason is the medical professionals have the assets and income to pay back the amount of additional taxes, interest and penalties owed to the IRS.  Professions where there is little possibility of collecting additional revenues are being de-emphasized.

If you receive a notice of being audited by the IRS—take it very seriously, get professional help.  If one year has significant changes that produce additional revenue to the IRS, it is highly probably that the audit will be expanded to other years and others in your medical group.  The IRS knows that bad practices regarding IRS matters are very contagious in the medical community.  Call me today for a free initial confidential consultation.

IRS tax audit strategies in Arizona. IRS help from Tax Debt Advisors, Inc

 Arizona IRS Tax Audit Strategies

  • Avoid having the audit at your home.  We suggest to our clients to have the audit conducted at our office.
  • After consulting with a professional make the decision to extend the audit or not.  If an extension is requested before the dead line and you have reasonable cause, it is not a mark against you.  However, to miss an appointment that you previously extended will be a large a “red flag” as you can find.
  • Be cordial during the audit but not overly friendly.  Leave the talking to your advisor unless specifically questioned directly by the auditor.  When you answer the question do it in the fewest words that conveys the correct answer.  Look the auditor in the eyes and if you need some time before answering the question—take the time.  If you know you don’t know the answer, tell the auditor you don’t know, write down the question and ask the auditor when you can get back with the answer.
  • Allow for disagreements.  You will eventually get what you expect if you never get mad or angry.  An angry taxpayer is usually wrong.  If you cannot handle your emotions, let your representative do the talking.  Auditors know that they are creating a stressful situation and their training teaches them how to benefit from that stress taxpayers feel.
  • If you are a sole proprietor filing a schedule C on your return we recommend that you put your business in an LLC and then get IRS approval to have your LLC taxed as a Subchapter S Corporation.  I can discuss with you the tax benefits as well as the audit benefits during a consultation at my office.

How does the IRS file substitute tax returns? From Tax Debt Advisors, Inc.

IRS File Substitute Tax Returns (SFR)

The IRS SFR (Substitute For Return) unit will match all income reported to your social security number including W-2’s, K-1’s, 1099’s, etc.  If you last return filed was a joint return, the IRS will file an SFR as married filing separate which will put you in a higher tax bracket.  You will not be given credit for any dependents, or deductions.  Many clients avoid filing back tax returns because they have lost or never received due to a move records needed to file a return.  I am able to retrieve all the records that were report to the IRS.  Once those are available, you will be better able to locate records that will reduce your tax liability along with interest and penalties.  The hardest part is making the decision to get started.  Call me today for a free confidential initial consultation. I will be your IRS Power of Attorney representation from beginning to end.
