Taxpayer Bill of Rights

The Taxpayer Bill of Rights is a set of principles designed to ensure fair treatment for taxpayers by the IRS. It outlines the rights individuals have when dealing with tax matters, such as the right to be informed about tax obligations, the right to challenge the IRS’s position, and the right to privacy and confidentiality. It also includes the right to receive assistance and to appeal decisions. Essentially, it helps protect taxpayers from unfair practices and ensures they are treated with respect and fairness during the tax process.
