Don’t see your audit situation listed here?
Every IRS and state audit letter comes with its own scope, documentation request, and deadline.
Do not speak with an IRS or state auditor without a tax professional present.
Anything you say during an audit becomes part of the record, and casual or incomplete answers can lead to broader questions, additional scrutiny, or a larger adjustment than the original request.
You have the legal right to designate a representative to communicate and meet with the IRS on your behalf. In most cases, the IRS must suspend an interview if you request to consult with a representative first.
We start with a conversation to understand your situation, review any IRS or state notices, and identify the main issue. You’ll get a clear explanation of what’s happening and what to expect next.
If you choose to move forward, we take a deeper look at your tax history, filings, balances, notices, and account status. From there, we build a practical strategy based on your specific tax issue.
Once engaged, you’ll receive access to our secure client portal for documents and updates. When needed, we communicate with the IRS or state on your behalf and work toward the best available resolution.
An IRS audit is a review of a tax return to verify that income, deductions, and credits were reported accurately. Badran Tax provides tax services for individuals and business owners nationwide facing a correspondence audit, an office audit, or a full field examination. Audits generally cover returns filed within the last three years, though the IRS can extend that period in certain circumstances.
Taxpayers have the right to retain an authorized representative to handle communication and interviews with the IRS during an audit. Our tax professionals act as that representative, reviewing the audit notice, gathering supporting documentation, and communicating with the examiner directly, so our clients are not required to face the process alone.
State tax agencies conduct their own examinations of income tax, sales tax, and business tax returns, with procedures and appeal rights that differ from the IRS. Badran Tax provides tax help for individuals and businesses facing a state tax audit, reviewing the specific agency’s notice and documentation requirements before responding.
Whether the audit involves the IRS or a state tax authority, an accurate and well-documented response can affect whether the return is accepted as filed or adjusted. Badran Tax works with clients nationwide to prepare records, respond to information requests, and represent their position throughout the exam.
An audit does not always end with an agreement between the taxpayer and the IRS. Taxpayers who disagree with the findings have the right to appeal within the IRS or through the courts. If an audit was closed without the taxpayer’s participation or new information becomes available, audit reconsideration may allow the case to be reopened.
Badran Tax helps individuals and businesses evaluate whether an appeal or audit reconsideration is appropriate, reviewing the original exam, the proposed adjustment, and any documentation that was not previously considered.
Yes. Badran Tax provides tax help and audit representation for individuals and businesses nationwide, in addition to serving clients based in New Jersey directly.
Audits can be triggered by discrepancies between reported income and third-party records, unusually large deductions relative to income, random selection, or issues found on a related return. Not every audit means something was done incorrectly.
A correspondence audit is handled entirely by mail and typically involves a specific item on the return. A field or office audit involves a more detailed, in-person review and may cover multiple parts of the return.

No. You have the right to have an authorized representative, such as a tax professional, who would communicate and meet with the IRS on your behalf, so you don’t have to handle the audit interview personally.

Take the next step toward resolving your tax problem. Badran Tax can review your situation, explain your options, and deal with the IRS or state on your behalf.
