NO FEAR Audits:
Get Copies of In-House IRS Auditing
Manuals
You can take the fear out of
any audit by seeing what the auditor
is going to look for when they come
to audit you. You can get copies
of the IRS’ own In-House Auditing
Manuals. These are the guidelines
that the IRS auditors have to follow
when they come to audit you. It’s
like getting the test ahead of time. But
because of the government’s own Freedom
of Information Act, this is now legal.
You can receive a listing of all
available audit manuals by sending
a SASE (self-addressed stamped envelope)
to Internal Revenue Service, Attn:
Freedom of Information, c/o Ben Franklin
Station, P.O. Box 795, Washington,
DC 20004, 202-622-5164. If
you want to look at some of the non-secret
manuals available go to: www.irs.gov/businesses/small/article/0,,id=108149,00.html#V

Help to Fight the IRS!
If you get
the runaround from the IRS or they
are banging on your door, saying
they are going to put a lock around
your house for that 13 cents that
you owe them from 1972, or they want
hundreds of thousands of dollars
from you and you cannot pay all that
money, Congress has set up special
offices that will fight the IRS for
you. They are called tax advocate
centers, and they are wonderful. If
you have an argument, they can go
right into the computers, correct
the information, stop you from getting
that mail, and can be an advocate
for you. You can contact the
national office toll-free at 877-777-4778
or your local Taxpayer Advocate office
listed in the national listing: www.irs.gov/advocate
HEY! IS THAT MINE?
The IRS is Sitting on 96,792
Unclaimed Refund Checks
Maybe the IRS recomputed
your 2001 tax return and found that
you made a mistake and instead of
you owing the IRS money, the IRS
owes you a refund. But you
have since moved and your check is
sitting waiting for you to call. At
any one time the IRS can have 96,792
checks like this worth over $80 million. Contact
the IRS and see if the IRS is sitting
on your money: http://www.irs.gov/individuals/article/0,,id=96596,00.html

to go to reducing the public debt. If you wish to do so, make a check payable to “Bureau of the Public Debt.” You
can send it to: Bureau of the Public

can enclose the check with your income
tax return when you file.
LOOK! 374,000 Taxpayers
Don’t Apply for $500 Refund Due
to Them!
A study done by the U.S. Government
Accountability Office (www.gao.gov/new.items/d05684.pdf)
shows that as many as 374,000 taxpayers
are eligible to receive up to $500
back on their taxes, but do not apply
for the program. The programs
are Hope and Lifetime Learning tax
credits and the tuition tax deduction.
These are programs for people continuing
their higher education. For information
about tax credits, see: www.irs.gov/faqs/faq-kw85.html. For
details on the tuition deduction,
see: www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc457.html.
ASK!
The IRS Will Send 3.5 Million Families
a Check for Up To $4,300, but ya
gotta ASK!
It’s not really a grant, but
it looks like a grant, it walks like
a grant and it even smells like a
grant. They are called tax credits.
It is extra money the IRS will give
you that’s better than a refund because
they will give it to you even if
you don’t pay any taxes. You just
have to have some income and the
less income you have the bigger the
check you get. You can make up to
$35,458 and still be eligible. Get

Income Tax Credit by calling 800-829-3676
