Are you having
trouble resolving a tax problem with the IRS, and don't think an IRS
system or procedure is not working, then you can contact what is known as the
taxpayer Advocate Service. If you do not want to do that yourself we can
represent you in the mater with a properly signed Power of Attorney.
What is the
taxpayer advocate service? It is an independent organization with the
Internal Revenue Service. Taxpayer Advocate Service helps taxpayers
who are experiencing economic harm such as not being able to provide
necessities like housing, transportation, or food, taxpayers who are seeking
help in resolving problems with the IRS or think the system is not working
as it should. Her are some things every taxpayer should know about
Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS).
- The
Taxpayer Advocate Service is your voice at the IRS.
- TAS
service is free, confidential, and tailored to meet your needs.
- You
may be eligible for TAS help if you have tried to resolve your tax
problem through normal IRS channels and have gotten nowhere, or
you believe an IRS procedure just isn't working as it should.

significant cost, including the cost of professional representation.

Columbia, and Puerto Rico. You can call your local advocate, whose number
is in your phone book. You can also call toll-free number at

Here is a bit oftax advice for you. I have been practicing before the IRS asenrolled agent for twenty six years now and I have found the taxpayer
advocate service fair and they will fight the IRS for your rights.
You will have needed to try to solve your problem yourself first or a tax
levy on your wages or bank account could have caused a hardship.
