Contacting your Taxpayer Advocate. If you have attempted
to deal with an IRS problem unsuccessfully, you should contact
your Taxpayer Advocate.
The Taxpayer Advocate represents your interests and concerns
within the IRS by protecting your rights and resolving problems
that have not been fixed through normal channels. While Taxpayer
Advocates cannot change the tax law or make a technical tax decision,
they can clear up problems that resulted from previous contacts
and ensure that your case is given a complete and impartial review.
