When a taxpayer files a claim for credit or refund, the IRS may disallow the claim in whole or in part and issue a notice of claim disallowance – most commonly a Letter 105C or 106C – denying the taxpayer’s claim. Taxpayers who challenge the notice in a U. S. district court or the U.S. Court of Federal Claims must generally file suit within two years from the date the notice of claim disallowance is mailed (that date is typically on the top righthand side of the first page of the notice).
As the National Taxpayer Advocate, part of my statutory duties and the duties of the Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) are to identify and inform Congress of challenges facing the IRS and taxpayers. In the interest of transparency, I want to discuss challenges taxpayers are facing not only with the IRS but also with TAS. While previous blogs have spoken about the delays taxpayers and practitioners are experiencing with the IRS, it is important to acknowledge taxpayers are experiencing similar delays when contacting TAS.
