- 7 - E. Respondent’s Notice of Determination On February 12, 2003, respondent issued to petitioner a Notice of Determination Concerning Collection Action(s) in which respondent determined that the filing of the tax lien for 1992-94 was appropriate. Petitioner timely filed a petition. In the petition, petitioner disputed the underlying tax liabilities for 1992 and 1994 on the grounds that respondent had not applied a credit from a later year to those years and contended that respondent recorded the tax lien despite the fact that the Taxpayer Advocate had placed a 45-day hold on collection 12 days earlier.3 OPINION 1. Respondent’s Contentions Respondent contends that (a) respondent was not required to provide petitioner an opportunity for a hearing at the Appeals Office closest to petitioner’s residence, and (b) petitioner waived any right to a hearing because petitioner had a telephone conference with Magee in lieu of attending the conference at Jackson, Mississippi. 3 Congress contemplated the withdrawal of a Federal tax lien in appropriate circumstances, such as after the involvement of the Taxpayer Advocate.
