          not disclosed by the record,4 and interest as provided by law.              
          (We shall refer to any such unpaid amounts, as well as interest             
          as provided by law after March 4, 2002, as petitioner’s unpaid              
          1998 liability.)                                                            
               On March 4, 2002, respondent issued to petitioner a notice             
          of balance due with respect to petitioner’s unpaid 1998 liabil-             
          ity.                                                                        
               On August 17, 2002, respondent sent petitioner a final                 
          notice of intent to levy and notice of your right to a hearing              
          (notice of intent to levy) with respect to petitioner’s unpaid              
          1998 liability.                                                             
               On August 20, 2002, in response to the notice of intent to             
          levy, petitioner filed Form 12153, Request for a Collection Due             
          Process Hearing (petitioner’s Form 12153), and requested a                  
          hearing with respondent’s Appeals Office (Appeals Office).  In              
          petitioner’s Form 12153, petitioner stated:                                 
               Taxes owed from 1998 are offset by losses in 1999 &                    
               2000.  Cannot find anyone, including IRS, to complete                  
               tax return & we cannot do it ourselves & cannot afford                 
               CPA.                                                                   
               On August 30, 2002, a representative of respondent’s collec-           
          tion division had a telephonic conference with petitioner (August           


               4Although not disclosed by the record, we presume that the             
          additions to tax that respondent assessed were additions to tax             
          under sec. 6651(a)(1) and (2).  That is because petitioner did              
          not file his 1998 return until July 2, 2001, and did not pay the            
          tax due shown in that return when he filed it.
