It may include information about how to schedule a conference, case specific information, provide a preliminary review summary, identify items to provide in advance to Appeals and provide information on obtaining representation.

The Appeals process is not a continuation or an extension of the examination process. The discussion of new or additional authorities (e.g. court cases, revenue rulings or revenue procedures) that support a theory or argument previously presented does not constitute consideration of a new issue.
