If the thought of getting a letter from the IRS makes your heart race, you're not alone. Tax audits stir up anxiety for most people, even when they've done everything right.

The truth is, you have a ‘bill of rights’, as it pertains to tax matters. Understanding these rights can help you stay calm when dealing with communication from the IRS.
