Failure to send a response letter can incur you additional penalties. Be vigilant about your rights and the due process so you\u2019ll know what else to prepare for and the proper appeal. The periods of time are very important in any legal battle. For example, a lapse of a certain period of time without filing an appeal from a decision will make the decision final and unappealable.&nbsp;<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"op3-element-lzQOgJKc\" class=\"op3-element \" data-op3-uuid=\"lzQOgJKc\" data-op3-gid=\"\" data-op3-element-type=\"row\" data-op3-element-spec=\"\" data-op3-element-caption=\"Row #lzQOgJKc\" data-op3-code-before=\"\" data-op3-code-after=\"\" data-op-visibility-hidden=\"0\" data-op-element-hidden=\"0\" data-op3-style-id=\"\" data-op3-has-children=\"1\"><div data-op3-element-container data-op-animation-trigger=\"none\" data-op-animation-style=\"\" data-op-animation-loop=\"0\" data-op-timer-minutes=\"0\" data-op-timer-seconds=\"0\" data-op3-sticky=\"0\" data-op3-sticky-active-desktop=\"1\" data-op3-sticky-active-tablet=\"1\" data-op3-sticky-active-mobile=\"0\" data-op3-sticky-top-desktop=\"0px\" data-op3-sticky-top-tablet=\"0px\" data-op3-sticky-top-mobile=\"0px\" data-op3-sticky-until=\"0\" data-op3-sticky-until-element=\"\"><div data-op3-children=\"1\" data-op3-stack-columns-desktop=\"0\" data-op3-stack-columns-desktop-reverse=\"0\" data-op3-stack-columns-tablet=\"0\" data-op3-stack-columns-tablet-reverse=\"0\" data-op3-stack-columns-mobile=\"1\" data-op3-stack-columns-mobile-reverse=\"0\" data-op3-wrap-columns-desktop=\"0\" data-op3-wrap-columns-tablet=\"0\" data-op3-wrap-columns-mobile=\"0\"><div id=\"op3-element-iRnXdsPR\" class=\"op3-element \" data-op3-uuid=\"iRnXdsPR\" data-op3-gid=\"\" data-op3-element-type=\"column\" data-op3-element-spec=\"\" data-op3-element-caption=\"Column #iRnXdsPR\" data-op3-code-before=\"\" data-op3-code-after=\"\" data-op-visibility-hidden=\"0\" data-op-element-hidden=\"0\" data-op3-style-id=\"\" data-op3-has-children=\"1\"><div class=\"op3-column-content op3-background-parent\" data-op-animation-trigger=\"none\" data-op-animation-style=\"\" data-op-animation-loop=\"0\" data-op-timer-minutes=\"0\" data-op-timer-seconds=\"0\"><div data-op3-element-container><div data-op3-children=\"2\"><div id=\"op3-element-xkPRDyaf\" class=\"op3-element \" data-op3-uuid=\"xkPRDyaf\" data-op3-gid=\"\" data-op3-element-type=\"headline\" data-op3-element-spec=\"\" data-op3-element-caption=\"Headline #xkPRDyaf\" data-op3-code-before=\"\" data-op3-code-after=\"\" data-op-visibility-hidden=\"0\" data-op-element-hidden=\"0\" data-op3-style-id=\"\" data-op3-has-children=\"0\"><div class=\"op3-headline-wrapper\" data-op-animation-trigger=\"none\" data-op-animation-style=\"\" data-op-animation-loop=\"0\" data-op-timer-minutes=\"0\" data-op-timer-seconds=\"0\"><div data-op3-contenteditable><h2><!--StartFragment-->Consult A Tax Lawyer<!--EndFragment--><br><\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"op3-element-E2IEEhUy\" class=\"op3-element \" data-op3-uuid=\"E2IEEhUy\" data-op3-gid=\"\" data-op3-element-type=\"text\" data-op3-element-spec=\"\" data-op3-element-caption=\"Text Editor #E2IEEhUy\" data-op3-code-before=\"\" data-op3-code-after=\"\" data-op-visibility-hidden=\"0\" data-op-element-hidden=\"0\" data-op3-style-id=\"\" data-op3-has-children=\"0\"><div class=\"op3-text-wrapper\" data-op-animation-trigger=\"none\" data-op-animation-style=\"\" data-op-animation-loop=\"0\" data-op-timer-minutes=\"0\" data-op-timer-seconds=\"0\"><div data-op3-contenteditable><p><!--StartFragment-->You might be tempted to craft the response letter yourself without the help of an <a href=\"https:\/\/atltaxlawyers.com\/what-to-do-when-you-receive-an-irs-audit-letter\/\">attorney<\/a>.
