          Background                                                                  
               The record establishes and/or the parties do not dispute the           
          following:                                                                  
               At the time the petition for lien or levy action under                 
          section 6320(c) or 6330(d)1 was filed, petitioner resided in Far            
          Rockaway, New York.                                                         
               Respondent’s transcripts for petitioner’s taxable years 1994           
          and 1996 indicate that he did not file a Federal income tax                 
          return (return) for either of those years and that respondent               
          prepared a substitute for return for each such year.  On a date             
          not disclosed by the record, respondent mailed to petitioner a              
          notice of deficiency (notice) with respect to his taxable years             
          1994 and 1996.  The U.S. Postal Service (Postal Service) returned           
          that notice to respondent because petitioner no longer resided at           
          the address for petitioner shown on the envelope in which the               
          notice was mailed and petitioner’s request to the Postal Service            
          to forward his mail to a new address had expired.                           
               On October 11, 1999, respondent assessed the Federal income            
          tax (tax) due for each of the petitioner’s taxable years 1994 and           
          1996, as shown in the substitute for return for each such year              
          that respondent had prepared, and issued notices and demands for            
          payment of such taxes.
