Ideas to Help Make Your IRS Dealings Go Smoother, Business Valuation Update,
Volume 21, Number 4, April 2015
In August 2014, senior leadership at the IRS contacted Mike to teach a class
for the agency's 300 staff members involved with valuation. It was entitled,
"How to Work with Practitioners". To prepare for the class Mike reached out to
valuation practitioners and gathered his own observations, having been in the
private sector now for over three years and after 28 years at the IRS. Though
the class did not take place, this article is the result of what he discovered -
ideas for developing a more cooperative working relationship and environment
between the valuation practitioner and the IRS. It is about relationship
building, understanding the various ways the IRS works a valuation issue such as
a consultation or an examination, knowing your rights and ways to partner with
the IRS on training.
