As another poster suggested, you should follow up to
determine the status and location of the case. A visit to
your local IRS office with copies of prior correspondence
and proof of POA would probably be more effective than
letters and phone calls. If the customer service people at
the counter can't help, ask to speak to a manager who can.

Computer records (AMDIS) will show if the case is open or
closed, where it is controlled, and the ID of the
responsible employee if assigned to the field.

I erred in stating April, 2004. We received the audit
notice for TY 2004 in April, 2006!

Also, as another poster questioned, we DID send the request
to the center requesting the audit.

Based on the above additional info, any further assistance?

in April of 2004, TY 2004 would not have even been over
never mind a tax return due??

Generally audits are conducted where the taxpayer resides.
You should follow up, as any adjustments could result in
your client incurring additional interest and maybe
additional penalties (that could be avoided). Most likely,
there was some problem with your POA and/or the IRS sent
correspondence to the client or the client's old address.
In either case you may find that you missed the audit and
that the IRS made adjustments without your knowing. As you
are probably aware, the Taxpayer Advocate Office is pretty
good at findingn lost cases....

Best of luck,

My client is in CA, I am in PA. In April, 2004, we received
a request for an audit of TY 2004, in CA. I immediately
requested a transfer (via faxed letter) to the Phila Service
Center. To date, we have received no reply, nor any further
correspondence from the IRS. Do I have anything to worry about?
Should I try to contact the IRS to find out where this stands?

HELP!

I am ignorant of this matters, but why didn't you send the
request to the Center requesting the audit?
