               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. 365, 371 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 a Form 4340 such as the one relied upon by the                 
          Appeals officer in this case contains all the information                   
          prescribed in section 301.6203-1, Proced. & Admin. Regs.  See               
          Weishan v. Commissioner, supra; Lindsey v. Commissioner, supra;             
          Tolotti v. Commissioner, supra; Duffield v. Commissioner, supra;            
          Kuglin v. Commissioner, supra.                                              
              Petitioners have not alleged any irregularity in the                   
          assessment procedure that would raise a question about the                  
          validity of the assessments or the information contained in the             
          Form 4340.  See Davis v. Commissioner, 115 T.C. 35, 41 (2000);              
          Mann v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 2002-48.  Accordingly, we hold             
          that the Appeals officer satisfied the verification requirement             
          of section 6330(c)(1).  See, e.g., Nicklaus v. Commissioner, 117            
          T.C. 117, 120-121 (2001).                                                   
               Petitioners also contend that they never received a notice             
          and demand for payment for 1998.  The requirement that the
