How do I get help from Turbo Tax for my IRS audit of my 2018 taxes?

The IRS says I owe substantially more on my 2018 taxes. We hired a tax expert who said we owed substantially less than the IRS is claiming. The IRS responded and said we still owe more than Turbo tax or our tax expert said. Now what?

I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM THE IRS/STATE

 

 

TurboTax does not receive any information from the IRS or your state after your return was filed, so no one at TurboTax knows about a letter you received from the IRS or the state.

 

(what the letters from the IRS mean)

AUDIT SUPPORT

 

TurboTax has a special phone number for help with IRS/state tax letters, which will be easier than going through regular Customer Support.   At the page below, click on the blue button that says "Get Help from TurboTax Support".  Then it will ask you what tax year is your letter.  Then it will ask you what the letter concerns. Then it will show you the phone number during posted business hours.

If you hired an expert to respond to the original notice then you should return to that person for further assistance since they know the situation.
