It is a common misconception among American taxpayers that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) offices work at a slow pace (I mean… they’re not the post office. Amirite??). The IRS took a big step by offering an efficient and timeless program that allows taxpayers to hold “face to face” meetings with the IRS representatives – IRS Virtual Appeal.
This program was designed to remove the need for paperwork, and the long wait taxpayers endure when appealing their tax situations. Learn some of the basics of the new IRS virtual appeal program in this article to resolve your time consuming and complicated tax matter faster.
What is the New IRS Virtual Appeal Program?
As its name suggests, the IRS virtual appeal is a web-based video conference program that connects the IRS representatives, taxpayers, and their representatives via virtual technology. The IRS launched the virtual appeal program on August 1, 2017, as a pilot program and later rolled it over to some selected states in 2018.
So far, the program has allowed taxpayers, their representatives, and IRS appeals office staff to hold a meeting by way of a safe, web-based video conference. The video conference is not only secure but also private and can be done in your office or home.
This is a program that will bring the much-needed efficiency in the tax appeal cases and eliminate the need of visiting the IRS offices countless times.
