Anthony and Esther Sicari - Page 9




                                        - 9 -                                         
               The Sicaris deny actual receipt although they were expecting           
          the 90-day letter.  The letter carrier does not remember                    
          delivering the letter.  Postal procedures were not followed, and            
          the actual envelope is mismarked.  The address employed by                  
          respondent, while it generally should have resulted in delivery             
          of the mail, was not the taxpayers' last known address.                     
               Under all these circumstances, we find that actual delivery            
          was not accomplished.                                                       
               Accordingly, based upon the facts and circumstances of this            
          case, we will deny respondent's motion to dismiss for lack of               
          jurisdiction and will dismiss for lack of jurisdiction on the               
          ground that no valid notice of deficiency was ever issued or                
          delivered to petitioners.                                                   


                                             An appropriate order will                
                                        be issued.
