IRS Audit Help
Here’s Why You Need Help:
The Internal Revenue Service and/or your State Department of Taxation can choose to review your income tax return for accuracy if it believes some or all of your return is incorrect or on rare occasions the audit can be completely random. Although the audit may strike fear in most people, it does not necessarily mean you have broken any tax laws or that your return was filed incorrectly. It may mean you need audit representation from a New Jersey tax firm that is experienced in working with the IRS, State & City authorities.
Many times, an individual that is subject to an audit immediately assumes that they will need an attorney. This is not always the case – in fact, many times a CPA is a great choice for audit representation and much more reasonably priced than a tax attorney. If you find yourself on the receiving end of an IRS, or New Jersey tax audit, the Jersey City accountants at JLD Tax can thoroughly analyze and defend your case, giving you the peace of mind you need to have a successful resolution.
What to Expect During the Audit Process
If you are worried about meeting an IRS officer face-to-face, the accountants at JLD Tax can handle it for you. In fact, we usually recommend that you cease contact with the IRS and allow us to defend your case for you. To get started, our tax accountants will take the time to understand your story and will thoroughly explain the audit process to you. Following our analysis, we will identify probable outcomes and recommend a strategy. If you get additional notices from the IRS, it is important to share those notices with JLD Tax immediately. Many notices highlight important deadlines, dates, and instructions. Do not expect the audit to resolve itself in a few weeks – dealing with certain departments of the federal, state and local governments usually takes at least a couple months.

I hired JLD Tax to handle a tax audit due to an unfortunate typo in my divorce decree. It has been a long road with the IRS, due to their own continued struggles, but JLD has been great throughout the entire process. Everyone at JLD has been a pleasure to work with. They've kept me informed throughout the process and have been easy to reach, if I have questions or concerns that I need to cover with them. I highly recommend their services to family and friends without hesitation. Thanks to Jonathan and his team for a remarkable job!
Working with Jonathan was an absolute relief. He was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about helping me resolve my tax situation. From the start, he explained every step clearly and made a complicated process feel manageable. Jonathan was responsive, patient, and always made sure I understood my options before moving forward.
I was a victim of internet fraud a few years ago, in which my nest egg was wiped out. Not to mention the IRS and the state of New Jersey penalized me, through no fault of my own. The team at JLD Tax advocated on my behalf. They had worked on my case in such a diligent manner and explained the process every step of the way to put my mind at ease. JLD Tax negotiated a reasonable settlement for my case. I also use JLD Tax for my annual tax returns as well.
The worst thing for taxpayers is to owe the I.R.S money. I being one of them. I owed a lot of money for unpaid taxes. Not until my friend introduced me to Jonathan. After reviewing the letters I had received from the IRS, he was able to help me. I now don’t receive letters threatening with levy and garnishing my wages. One thing i can assure you is that, Jonathan is a very honest, knowledgeable and someone you can trust.All what i can tell you is that my big problem was solved. And i am sure he will help you solve yours to. Thank you Jonathan.
What to Bring to Your Initial Consultation
When you meet with JLD Tax for your initial consultation, you will need to bring all documents that pertain to your case including the notice or notices sent by the IRS, an accurate and complete copy of the return you submitted, and any supporting documentation.
These supporting documents can include:
Expense Receipts
Mortgage interest and Property Tax statements
1099s
W2s
Documents pertaining to your business if you are Self-Employed
Any other important ax documents that are relevant to the year being audited
It is much better to hire an accountant to defend your case early in the audit process rather than wait until the IRS threatens to levy or collect on the tax debt it thinks you owe. You have rights during the tax audit process, and many taxpayers answer questions during IRS hearings they are not legally required to answer.
