A diverse and wide range of professionals represent clients before the IRS, resulting in varying approaches to different topics and issues. This presentation offers practical, real-world guidance for professionals navigating the complexities of IRS field audits.

You'll also gain valuable insights into managing all stages of a field audit--from properly executing Form 2848 to handling IDRs, taxpayer interviews, and even summons enforcement. The presentation also offers special insights into BBA partnership audits to help you better assist individual clients caught up in a centralized-partnership audit.
