- 4 - and statutory additions. Petitioner received the notice. On January 13, 2002, on Form 12153, Request for a Collection Due Process Hearing, she requested a hearing with respondent’s Appeals Office for the years 1993 through 1998.4 The request asserted that the respondent's findings were incorrect. No spousal defenses or collection alternatives were alleged. In due course, an Appeals Office hearing was held with petitioner by telephone on September 10, 2002. Respondent thereafter denied relief and issued a Notice of Determination Concerning Collection Actions Under Section 6320 and/or 6330 on October 15, 2002. The notice summarized the determination as follows: “Our determination is that the proposed levy action is appropriate.” An attachment to the notice, Relevant Issues Presented by the Taxpayer, addressed petitioner’s position as follows: The sole issue you raised was that you disagree with the IRS audit assessments. You had a previous opportunity for an Appeals conference after your administrative claims were denied. Because you had a previous opportunity for an Appeals conference concerning both liabilities, � 6330 precludes you from challenging the underlying tax liabilities in this case. 4 The petition challenges only the 1993 and 1994 tax liabilities. The record does not reflect the status of the other years for which petitioner requested a hearing.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Next
