               TAX RETURNS.  THEREFORE, A LIEN AND LEVY WILL INHIBIT                  
               THE TAXPAYER TO OBTAIN PROPER FINANCING. [Reproduced                   
               literally.]                                                            
               On January 19, 2006, a settlement officer with the Appeals             
          Office (settlement officer) sent a letter to petitioner with                
          respect to petitioner’s Form 12153.  In that letter, the settle-            
          ment officer offered petitioner the opportunity to have a hearing           
          on February 28, 2006.  On February 28, 2006, petitioner’s autho-            
          rized representative called the settlement officer and requested            
          a two-week period within which to (1) submit a tax return for               
          each of petitioner’s taxable years 2000, 2001, and 2002 and                 
          (2) propose a collection alternative.  The settlement officer               
          granted that request.  On March 28, 2006, the settlement officer            
          called petitioner’s authorized representative (March 28, 2006               
          call).  During the March 28, 2006 call, petitioner’s authorized             
          representative indicated that he had nothing to submit with                 
          respect to petitioner’s taxable years 2000, 2001, and 2002 and              
          requested that a notice of determination be issued with respect             
          to those years.                                                             
               On April 5, 2006, the Appeals Office issued to petitioner a            
          notice of determination with respect to petitioner’s taxable                
          years 2000, 2001, and 2002.  That notice stated in pertinent                
          part:                                                                       
               Summary of Determination                                               
               You did not offer any collection alternatives for                      
               Appeals consideration.  Collection is sustained.
