Help With Unresolved Tax Problems
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.
To contact your Taxpayer Advocate:
- Call the Taxpayer Advocate's toll-free number: 1-877-777-4778.
- Call the IRS toll-free number: 1-800-829-1040.
- Call, write, or fax the Taxpayer Advocate office in your area.
- Call 1-800-829-4059 if you are a TTY/TDD user.
