Is Appeals the Place for You?

Appeals is the place for you if:

  • You received an IRS correspondence explaining you have the right to come to Appeals to dispute an IRS decision.
    AND
  • You do not agree and are not signing an agreement form sent to you.

If you meet the qualifiers listed above, then you may be ready to request an Appeals conference or hearing.

Appeals is not for you if:

  • Your only concern is that you cannot afford to pay the amount you owe.
  • The correspondence you received from the IRS was a bill and there was no mention of Appeals.

If you cannot identify the requirements, or if you do not meet the conditions for coming to Appeals as explained above, contact the person in the IRS you are working with or Customer Service for assistance at 1 (800) 829-1040.
