          1995, 1996, 1997, 1998,7 1999, 2000, 2001, and 2002,                        
          respectively.                                                               
          F.   Administrative Hearing                                                 
               On May 23, 2005, petitioners submitted Form 12153, Request             
          for a Collection Due Process Hearing, in which they claimed the             
          second notice of Federal tax lien should not have been filed                
          because of representations made by respondent’s revenue officer             
          that a lien would not be filed while they were negotiating an               
          offer-in-compromise.                                                        
               On June 24, 2005, petitioners mailed a letter to respondent,           
          in which they asserted that the tax liability indicated in the              
          second notice of Federal tax lien failed to reflect the $4,664              
          overpayment credit from 2004.8  On July 21, 2003, respondent’s              
          Appeals Office mailed petitioners a letter acknowledging receipt            
          of petitioners’ request for an administrative hearing.                      
               On October 27, 2005, a face-to-face conference was held                
          between Settlement Officer Thomas Knauss and Oliver W. Williams             
          (petitioner).  During the hearing, petitioner asserted that the             
          offer-in-compromise should not have been returned because he                
          provided all requested documentation, the second notice of                  

               7 The unpaid balance for 1998 as indicated on the second               
          notice of Federal tax lien did not include the balance owing in             
          the first notice of Federal tax lien.                                       
               8 The $4,664 overpayment credit was applied to the 1998 Form           
          5329 10-percent additional tax liability reflected in the first             
          notice of Federal tax lien.
