Help Me Get a Fair IRS Review

I’m in an uphill, “David vs. Goliath” fight with the IRS over a 2019 tax determination that I believe is wrong. I’m not asking for special treatment or a free pass—I’m asking for a fair review based on the rules and the documented record, before collections actions cause irreversible harm.

This website exists for three reasons:

  1. To bring awareness to how quickly a tax dispute can escalate when conflicting filings and legal documents are involved.
  2. To help qualified professionals evaluate my case efficiently using a clear timeline and a redacted evidence library.
  3. To ask for support so I can afford representation and defend myself properly as the IRS increases collection pressure.

What’s happening right now

  • The dispute stems from 2019 and involves conflicting filing positions and the IRS’s interpretation of documents connected to a divorce decree.
  • The IRS has issued determinations that I’ve challenged through written submissions and formal requests for reconsideration.
  • Collection pressure has increased, and I’m concerned about levies, garnishment, and seizure actions while the dispute remains unresolved.

What I’m asking for

1) Support to fund qualified representation

Professional help is expensive, but it’s also what makes the difference between being heard and being overwhelmed by process. I’m raising funds to cover:

  • Attorney/EA/CPA representation and case development
  • Administrative filings and reconsideration work
  • Document production, indexing, and submission costs
  • Urgent help responding to collections actions

👉 Go to Support to see the budget breakdown and how funds will be used.

2) Professional review and assistance (if you can help)

If you are a tax attorney, enrolled agent, CPA, or someone with deep tax controversy experience, this site is designed to make it easy to review:

  • A clear timeline of events
  • A structured document index (redacted)
  • The key points of dispute and what I’m asking the IRS to reconsider

👉 Start with Case Overview, then use Documents and Timeline.
