Taxpayer Bill of Rights outlines protections for all taxpayers

All taxpayers have rights when they interact with the IRS. These ten rights are the Taxpayer Bill of Rights, and they cover a wide range of topics and issues that directly affect taxpayers.

These rights explain what taxpayers can expect in the event they need to work with the IRS on a personal tax matter. This includes when a taxpayer is:

Filing a return
Paying taxes
Responding to a letter
Going through an audit
Appealing an IRS decision

The IRS issued a series of tax tips, each exploring one of the 10 rights in depth. Here are the 10 rights outlined in the Taxpayer Bill of Rights with links to the tax tips in this series:
