There is a ton of information available on the Internet to help you solve your tax problems. Some of it is good, and some of it is bad, and some of it will just plain get you in trouble.

Not so with this book. This book contains information on just about every tax problem you might have, not just audits. Not only does he show you what to do in these situations, he gives you practical written examples of correspondence you can copy and send to IRS to solve your specific problems.

One thing I liked about this book is that he also exposes various scams, like slave reparations and warns you against engaging in any of these "tax credits" because they aren't real.

The information in this book will help you. Pilla is an expert in taxes, and he's even testified before Congress because his expertise is so widely known.

One thing I would recommend is that you visit his website for the very latest information. Otherwise, you'll find exactly what you need here to help you avoid taking small problems with the IRS and turning them into big problems.

I have been fooling around with a so called "tax professional" for nearly eight weeks, trying to get him to contact the IRS and California Franchise Tax Board and get my penalty abated. One hour spent with this awesome book gave me the reasons and words to state my case for abatement.

Buy it. Awesome.

As a CPA I am becoming aware of the frequent IRS notices received. I have always utilized this book on each of my cases (mostly individual). It has help me formulate correspondence and strategies. This book will give you insights of the IRS, including statistics on the number of audits, collections and notices. I have been very successful in tax controversy work. I go straight to this book before ever going to my CPE related info. Buy it!

Received it before the date expected (nice!) and in great shape; no tears, welts, marking, or stains. It's informative and covers more ground than I expected. The english is plain and easy to follow (in layman's terms) without all the legal jargon to impress and confuse. Gives plenty of references and citings. Also, it isn't a "1,2,3 steps" outline, but I have learned much. Still not finished reading.

If you have no idea of how to handle an audit and just want to get started then this is a decent book.There are better books out there to help you plan your taxes or to respond to an audit.

Interviewed many times on the great
Radio Free America Show, by host Tom
Valentine, who just retired after 19
yrs., on the radio, Pilla lays bare
the lies of both the charlatans like
Irwin Schiff and the IRS. One day
there will be a monument to Dan, Jr.
& maybe his father, who does the great
Freedom Calenders, in Minnesota. Let's
start planning one today!
