sec. 61(a)(1); United States v. Romero, 640 F.2d 1014, 1016 (9th
Cir. 1981).
We likewise reject petitioner’s argument that the Appeals
officer failed to obtain verification from the Secretary that the
requirements of all applicable laws and administrative procedures
were met as required by section 6330(c)(1). The record shows
that the Appeals officer obtained and reviewed transcripts of
account with regard to petitioner’s taxable year 1997.
Federal tax assessments are formally recorded on a record of
assessment. Sec. 6203. “The summary record, through supporting
records, shall provide identification of the taxpayer, the
character of the liability assessed, the taxable period, if
applicable, and the amount of the assessment.” Sec. 301.6203-1,
Proced. & Admin. Regs.
Section 6330(c)(1) does not require the Commissioner to rely
on a particular document to satisfy the verification requirement
imposed therein. Roberts v. Commissioner, 118 T.C. n.10
(2002); Weishan v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 2002-88; Lindsey v.
Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 2002-87; Tolotti v. Commissioner, T.C.
Memo. 2002-86; Duffield v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 2002-53;
Kuglin v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 2002-51. In this regard, we
observe that the transcripts of account on which the Appeals
officer relied contained all the information prescribed in
section 301.6203-1, Proced. & Admin. Regs. See Weishan v.
