If you miss the deadline, the deadline for filing a tax court petition is 90 days from the date of the notice of deficiency sent sometime after the RAR is turned into the audit manager.

The IRS has a form you can fill out to request an audit appeal. However, you can just write a letter of appeal.

You can also appeal to the Tax Payer Advocates office explaining what a hardship it would be if the IRS disallowed your deductions even though you have some proof for them. This doesn’t extend the appeal or tax court due date.

Try to work with your auditor and their manager. It is rare that I have to appeal an audit I handled from the start. My audit appeals are usually to bail out people who missed audit appointments, or who were not cooperative during the audit. Most auditors (unlike the collection division), tend to be very logical and understanding about your situation. Audit appeals are a little more loose than the appeal below for trust fund. They understand that not everyone has an adequate chance to provide the necessary documents to avoid adjustments against them. Do the following...

* File a timely appeal. Read the instructions carefully. You have 90 days if issued a notice of deficiency, otherwise you have 30 days.


* Look up the tax law involving the items disallowed or added to the return. Become familiar with the reasons why an item may not be accepted and prepare to defend it.

* As with all appeals, look up cases that support any items you think may be a problem, and obtain notarized statements from anyone who can support your claims.


IRS Appeal of The Trust Fund or Civil Penalty

If you can't convince the revenue officer that you are not liable, you must file an appeal before the 30 days are up. An appeal should cite to the court cases and other documentation that went into your research, but if time is running out, you can file a short summary version with a request, stating that a more detailed version will follow later.

When appealing the Trust Fund, I highly recommend that you hire a professional representative!
