How Else Does TAS Help Taxpayers? TAS works to resolve large-scale problems that affect many taxpayers. If you know of one of these broad issues, report it to them at IRS.gov/SAMS. TAS for Tax Professionals TAS can provide a variety of information for tax professio- nals, including tax law updates and guidance, TAS pro- grams, and ways to let TAS know about systemic prob- lems you’ve seen in your practice. Low Income Taxpayer Clinics (LITCs) LITCs are independent from the IRS. LITCs represent in- dividuals whose income is below a certain level and need to resolve tax problems with the IRS, such as audits, ap- peals, and tax collection disputes. In addition, LITCs can provide information about taxpayer rights and responsibili- ties in different languages for individuals who speak Eng- lish as a second language. Services are offered for free or a small fee for eligible taxpayers. To find an LITC near you, go to TaxpayerAdvocate.IRS.gov/about-us/Low- Income-Taxpayer-Clinics-LITC or see IRS Pub. 4134, Low Income Taxpayer Clinic List. Page 70 Chapter 12 How To Get Tax Help
