Circular 230 requires that tax practitioners meet ethical standards and behave with integrity in practice before the IRS. Unfortunately, Circular 230 is outdated and vague in many areas. Given the fast-changing landscape for tax practitioners, it can be challenging to know where to focus on compliance efforts.
By reviewing OPR disciplinary data, outside information, and IRS trends, we will focus on high-risk areas for noncompliance in the tax resolution space and review how to build compliance reinforcing processes into your workflow. We will examine current situations where tax resolution professionals ran afoul of Circular 230 compliance and the takeaways we can learn from them.
