- 3 - February 21, 2006, petitioner submitted a Form 12153, Request for a Collection Due Process Hearing, raising frivolous and meritless arguments. By letter dated May 18, 2006, respondent’s Appeals settlement officer advised petitioner that a telephonic hearing was scheduled for June 8, 2006. The letter advised petitioner that he would be allowed a face-to-face hearing on any relevant, nonfrivolous issue, if petitioner responded within 14 days describing such an issue. The letter also advised that if petitioner desired to pursue collection alternatives, he should provide specified materials, including petitioner’s unfiled income tax returns for 1997, 2004, and 2005. By facsimile transmission on June 8, 2006, petitioner declined the telephonic hearing, demanding a face-to-face hearing but providing no information about relevant issues. By notice of determination dated June 15, 2006, respondent’s Appeals Office sustained the proposed levy. As part of this determination, the Appeals settlement officer reviewed a TXMODA computer transcript to verify that the assessments for petitioner’s 2003 taxes were properly accomplished and that notice and demand for payment had been issued to petitioner on the date of assessment.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 NextLast modified: November 10, 2007
