IRS Representation in Dallas

I’m Krystal Le, CPA. If the IRS sent a notice, opened an exam, or started collections, I represent DFW small-business owners before the IRS — Garland office or virtual.

Why Choose LeCPA for IRS Representation?

A seasonal preparer can file a return. Representation is different. I go on Form 2848, Power of Attorney and Declaration of Representative, so the IRS can speak with me about your matter. Publication 947, Practice Before the IRS and Power of Attorney, is the rulebook: Circular 230 practice is not the same as Form 8821, Tax Information Authorization, which is information-only. I file 2848 when I am actually representing you.

When a letter arrives, I read the CP or LTR number first. The IRS page “Understanding your IRS notice or letter” is organized that way. Common files I see: CP2000-style underreporter mismatches, balance-due bills, exam letters, and math-error notices. Send me a copy. I tell you whether this is a mismatch, a bill, or an exam — then I respond in writing. Correspondence and office exams sit at the small-business CPA level (Publication 556; Publication 1). I will represent you even if we did not prepare the year. I do not handle Tax Court or criminal tax.

Collections work stays inside Circular 230: installment agreements (Publication 594, Form 9465, Form 433-A/F/B when the IRS asks for a collection statement), penalty abatement, and catch-up filings. Missing returns live on tax preparation; I coordinate both because collections options usually require you to be filed-current. Liens, levies, and appeals stay in CPA scope (Publication 1660). I will not promise a lien release. Ongoing books or payroll problems that created the notice hand to bookkeeping or payroll. Structure questions that will repeat go to tax planning or S-Corp. A Texas entity that was never finished — no EIN, no books — starts on entity formation.

Pricing

Quoted after consultstarting

I quote after I read the notice and the deadline. Scope depends on the IRS product, the years involved, and whether we need transcripts or an amended return.

Pricing factors:

  • Type of IRS notice or exam
  • Number of tax years in play
  • Whether transcripts or catch-up returns are required
  • Collections versus exam work

Our Process

How We Work Together

A clear, proven process that delivers results without surprises.

1

Free consult + notice review

Bring the letter, the CP or LTR number, and the due date. A short consult is enough to tell you what the IRS is actually asking.

2

Engagement + Form 2848

If I am the right professional, we engage and I file Form 2848 so the IRS can speak with me. Form 8821 is not a substitute.

3

Transcripts and facts

I pull wage and income or account transcripts when we need the IRS’s version of the year, then match them to your records.

4

Response / resolution

I file the written response, documentation, installment-agreement request, or penalty-abatement request the notice calls for — before the date on the letter.

5

Follow-through

I stay on the account until the matter closes, then tell you what to change so the next year does not produce the same letter.

Benefits

What You Get

Licensed CPA representation

Circular 230 practice before the IRS — not a call-center script and not a seasonal drop-off.

You stop talking to the IRS

Once Form 2848 is on file, the IRS can speak with me about the years and forms we listed. You get status, not homework in IRS-speak.

Notice decoded

I start with the CP or LTR number so we treat a mismatch, a bill, and an exam as different files.

Exam document control

Correspondence and office exams are a document problem. I control what goes in and what the examiner is actually asking.

Collections options from Publication 594

Installment agreements and the collection process as the IRS describes them — not a promised monthly payment I invented.

Same firm can file missing returns

Catch-up returns live on tax preparation. I coordinate representation and the filings so collections work is not blocked by unfiled years.

Who It's For

Is This Service Right for You?

CP or LTR letter

You opened an IRS envelope and need someone who will read the notice number before anyone calls the number on the page.

Schedule C or 1099 exam

A correspondence or office exam on self-employment income, expenses, or a 1099 mismatch.

S-Corp or LLC exam

The IRS is looking at the business return, officer compensation, or a K-1. I represent the entity and point salary issues to S-Corp when that is the fix.

Balance due

A bill, not an exam. We talk collections options only after we know the amount and whether the return is correct.

Unfiled years

You are behind. Representation and the returns are connected; I coordinate catch-up filings on tax preparation.

Prior preparer disappeared

Someone else filed the year — or never did — and you need a CPA on Form 2848 now.
