1040 Preparation and Planning Part 9: Tax Practice (2007 Edition)

Sidney Kess and Barbara Weltman

The purpose of this series of courses is to bring the tax preparer "up-to-speed" in the most efficient way possible for the tax preparation season. It offers quick answers and hands-on help for tax return preparation that has become increasingly complex by several recently passed tax Acts.

This ninth and last course in the series covers filing rules for topics such as filing deadlines, extensions, amended returns, payment, and different methods of filing.

It also provides details on negotiating an offer in compromise, how the IRS selects returns for audits, and precautions that can be taken to minimize the chances of having your return examined.

The course then reviews the appeals process, going to court if you cannot resolve the dispute, and recovering costs from the government if you are vindicated.
