Amend after examination?

[cathyan]

TP decided to handle everything himself. He mailed in what the IRS asked for, and they allowed some, but not others. In going through all his paperwork, he found more receipts that would help him. Can I amend his return AFTER the examination is done? I haven't encountered this before. (They usually call me as soon as they get a letter!)

Ask for an audit reconsideration.

If the tax ssessment is paid (the penalties and interest can still be outstanding), your response will be considred a claim; send the case to the Accounts Management Operation of your original Service Centre. Recons are for cases where the tax has not yet been paid and follow a diffrent procesure.
