Program Content
This online learning program, presented as a live webcast, will be also archived for QAS Self Study. The program will be available for viewing for 12 months after the live webcast. A panel of IRS and industry experts will present the content during a live, interactive discussion, where participant questions can be submitted.

The program, through a lively round-table discussion and real time interaction with the audience, examines how persons who fail to file returns become subject to the IRS collection process. The program will focus on how individuals become involved with the IRS collection process and programs that may be available to avoid collection actions. Panelists will discuss the tools available to the IRS for collecting unpaid taxes. Panelists will examine how collection decisions may be appealed and the rights of the persons subject to the collection process.
By the end of the program, participants will have a practical understanding, through accurate, current, and effectively designed communications, of how taxpayers enter the collection process, the tools IRS uses in collecting unpaid taxes, and the right of individuals to appeal collection decisions.
