TAX POWER OF ATTORNEY FAQ


What is a Tax Power of Attorney?

A Tax Power of Attorney is a legal document that authorizes an individual or business to appoint another person—typically a tax professional such as a CPA, attorney, or enrolled agent—to represent them before tax authorities.


Why is a Tax Power of Attorney important?

It provides legal authority for the representative to act on your behalf, including handling audits, accessing confidential tax records, making filings, and negotiating with tax agencies. This helps ensure compliance, saves time, and reduces the stress of dealing directly with tax authorities.


When should you use a Tax Power of Attorney?

Use it when you need a professional to communicate with the IRS or state tax departments, manage filings or disputes, handle audits, or resolve complex tax issues. It’s especially useful for businesses and individuals who want expert representation without being directly involved in every step.


What should a Tax Power of Attorney include?

It should clearly identify the taxpayer and the appointed representative, specify the tax matters and time periods covered, define the powers granted, and meet signature and filing requirements set by tax authorities. Accuracy is crucial to avoid delays or rejections.
