IRS Bills? Get the information and strategies you need to deal with the taxman.

Named a "Best Tax Book" by Entrepreneur.com

The Internal Revenue Service is the taxpayer's worst nightmare, and for good reason -- a tax bill or other notice can come out of nowhere and wreak havoc on your life.

But now you can confront America's most intimidating government agency with confidence. Stand Up to the IRS reveals the tactics used by IRS and how to deal with them. This book even contains confidential forms used by IRS agents during collection interviews and audits.

Use Stand Up to the IRS to:

• file a late return
• work out a long-term payment plan
• get a Taxpayer Assistance Order
• settle your tax bill for pennies on the dollar
• stop collection efforts
• avoid property seizures
• protect your assets
• determine if bankruptcy offers a solution
• learn what to say when you face an auditor
• appeal the auditor's decision

This edition is completely updated with the latest rules, regulations and tax numbers. Plus, Stand Up to the IRS also shows you how to go to Tax Court, if it's ever needed.

From the Publisher: Just published winter of 98!
No three letters frighten the average American more than IRS. And it’s not surprising, since 25 million people are behind on the taxes they owe, and nearly a million taxpayers are audited each year.

Armed with Stand Up to the IRS, however, you need not fear. Drawing on his more than thirty years’ experience, San Francisco tax attorney Fred Daily reveals secrets the IRS doesn’t want you to know—he even includes confidential forms used by the IRS during collection interviews and audits, giving you all the information you need to confront America’s most powerful government agency.

If you still owe money after an audit, receive a tax bill you can’t pay or don’t have the money to send in when you file, use Stand Up to the IRS to: · get a long term payment plan · settle your tax bill for pennies on the dollar · avoid property seizures · determine if bankruptcy offers a solution, or · have the IRS suspend collections.

And if you’re facing an audit, get insider advice on how to: · gather documentation · learn what to say when you face an auditor · read an audit report · get a copy of the auditor’s report · get help from the IRS ombudsman · appeal the decision, and · take the IRS to Tax Court...and win!

Stand Up to the IRS is the book the IRS doesn’t want you to read. It provides all the forms you need to deal with the IRS and represent yourself in Tax Court, along with step-by-step instructions to fill them out. The fourth edition includes new tips on fighting an audit, incorporates the changes brought about by the Taxpayers’ Bill of Rights II and shows you how to find valuable IRS information and forms online.
