Appeals Division

The Appeals Division of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is an independent unit that helps resolve disputes between taxpayers and the IRS without going to court. If a taxpayer disagrees with an IRS decision, such as an audit result or tax owed, they can appeal the decision. The Appeals Division reviews the case, considers both sides, and aims to reach a fair solution. This process is designed to be informal and less costly than litigation, allowing taxpayers to resolve their issues while maintaining their rights and interests.
