If you’ve received an audit letter from the IRS, don’t panic—but don’t ignore it, either. IRS audits are serious legal matters, and the outcome can have lasting consequences on your financial future.

At Rappaport Tax Relief, we represent individuals and small businesses facing audits and examinations, ensuring that your rights are protected and that the process is handled with precision and professionalism.

Types of IRS Audits

  • Correspondence Audit: Conducted by mail; usually limited to one or two issues.

  • Office Audit: Requires a visit to an IRS office with documentation.

  • Field Audit: The most serious type—an IRS agent visits your home or business.

Audits are often triggered by:

  • Unusual deductions

  • Mismatched income reports

  • Large charitable donations

  • Home office or business expenses

  • Self-employment income (especially cash-heavy industries)

What an IRS Audit Can Lead To

  • A bill for back taxes, interest, and penalties

  • Frozen refunds or tax liens

  • Adjustments to future tax returns

  • Potential fraud investigations (in rare cases)
