An Audit Notice Isn't a Conviction — But How You Respond Matters

Many audits end with no change or even a refund. But the type of audit, how you respond, and whether you have representation all determine the outcome.

Correspondence audits are most common (75%+) and often resolved with records.

Never Go Alone

For office and field audits, never attend without representation.

Protect Yourself

Anything you say to an auditor can be used against you — let a pro respond.

Types of IRS Audits

Correspondence Audit

Most common (75%+ of audits). Conducted entirely by mail. The IRS requests documentation for specific items on your return. Often resolved by providing proper records.

Risk: Low to Moderate

Office Audit

You are asked to appear at an IRS office with documentation. More serious than correspondence — the IRS wants to interview you and review records in person. Never go alone.

Risk: Moderate to High

Field Audit

Most serious. An IRS agent comes to your home or business. Comprehensive examination of your entire return. Often involves business income, complex deductions, or suspected fraud. You need professional representation.

Risk: High

Common IRS Audit Triggers

High income ($200k+ significantly increases risk)
Large charitable deductions relative to income
Home office deductions
Schedule C losses year after year (hobby loss)
Large business expenses for vehicles/meals/travel
Discrepancies between reported income and 1099s/W-2s
Claiming 100% business use of a vehicle
Foreign accounts or assets (FBAR non-compliance)
