IRS practice and procedures

Baker Tilly finds that taxpayers who anticipate a tax dispute with the IRS often would like a definitive answer to their tax issues without having to wait for an IRS examination. Similarly, taxpayers already engaged in a tax dispute want the matter resolved successfully and expeditiously.

The IRS provides a number of options to the traditional exam process to resolve disputes or determine in advance if a tax position is tenable. To take advantage of them, you need advisors who can recommend the right approach for your situation, and then guide you through the steps required to achieve the desired outcome.

Baker Tilly professionals are intimately familiar with IRS dispute resolution programs and have helped a large number of clients use them to favorably resolve tax issues. We can assist you with:

• Private Letter Rulings, Pre-Filing Agreements, and Advance Pricing Agreements
• Voluntary Disclosures
• Requests for 9100 relief for missed elections, for Competent Authority assistance, and for Closing Agreements
• Fast Track Settlement and Early Referral to Appeals
• Appeals Mediation and Appeals Arbitration
• Industry Issue Resolution and Comprehensive Case Resolution
