Sensible Services ABC accountants provide audit responses and representation for those facing a state audit, a federal income tax audit, workman’s compensation audits, and more. Our audit preparation and representation service also extend to general liability and sales tax as well. Let us sweat the small stuff of your audit, and you will be liberated to focus on your work rather than worrying about whether you paid the government enough money and proving such.

Full Audit Representation

An audit letter is not the end of the world, especially if you have an experienced tax specialist on your side. We will carefully analyze your state income tax return and federal income tax. Our Hammond, LA accountant, will review the notice, detail each potential response strategy, and develop that response on your behalf. The overarching goal of our audit representation is to minimize the impact on your finances or that of your business.

All that we ask is that you provide us with the entirety of your financial documents to perform in-depth preparation and representation. Provide our Hammond, LA audit specialists with the information necessary to tailor a strategy to your unique case, and you won’t have to worry about interacting with the IRS for years or paying an egregiously significant penalty that devastates your finances.

Examples of standard documentation the IRS requires during audits to better understand your specific tax deductions include the following:

• Receipts
• Automobile receipts
• Mileage logs
• Canceled Checks
• Bank statements
• Settlement statements
• Odometer readings
  
  

Though your tax specialist might not have asked to see every one of these documents, they will be necessary to develop the proper response to the audit. However, if you cannot find every single receipt or other documentation, we understand. We will still prepare you for the audit and represent you even if you don’t have every requested document. What matters most in the context of an audit is communication. Be proactive by telling our audit specialists about the records you cannot locate, and we will do everything in our power to develop a cohesive audit response that safeguards your hard-earned money.
