What is the Definition of an Audit Reconsideration

 

An IRS Tax Audit Reconsideration is the process the IRS uses to reevaluate the results of a prior audit where additional tax was assessed and remains unpaid, or a tax credit was reversed.

If the taxpayer disagrees with the original determination he/she must provide information that was not previously considered during the original examination.

It is also the process the IRS uses when the taxpayer contests a Substitute for Return (SFR) determination by filing an original delinquent return.

Reasons to request an IRS Tax Audit Reconsideration:

Some reasons for an audit reconsideration request:

• The taxpayer did not appear for the audit,
• The taxpayer moved and did not receive the correspondence from the IRS,
• A taxpayer might request an audit reconsideration also if you disagree with an audit assessment from an initial tax audit of his/her return.

If the IRS prepared your Tax Return under 6020B:

The taxpayer can disagree with a tax assessment created under the authority of IRC Section 6020(b), Substitute for Return (SFR) you can also request a tax audit reconsideration.

You can also qualify if you have been denied tax credits such as EITC claimed, during prior examination.

Acceptance of Request

 

A request for reconsideration will be considered if:

• The taxpayer requests the abatement of an assessment based on information that was not previously considered which, if considered, would have resulted in a change to the assessment.
• An original delinquent return is filed by the taxpayer after an assessment was made as a result of a return executed by the IRS under IRC Section 6020(b) or other substitute for return procedures.
• There was an IRS computational or processing error in assessing the tax.
