AUDIT DEFENSE

New York State tax audits can be invasive, time-consuming, and financially devastating if not handled properly. Our team provides aggressive representation during DTF examinations, protecting your rights while working to minimize additional assessments and penalties. From residency audits to income allocation disputes, we have the experience to defend your position.

State tax audits differ significantly from IRS audits. New York auditors are known for their aggressive tactics, particularly in residency cases where they scrutinize cell phone records, credit card statements, and day counts to challenge your claimed domicile. Our team understands DTF audit procedures and knows how to build a compelling defense.

Whether you’re facing a routine correspondence audit or a complex residency examination, we provide strategic guidance throughout the process. Our goal is to resolve audits efficiently while protecting your financial interests and minimizing your exposure to additional tax liability.

RESIDENCY AUDITS

New York residency audits are among the most complex and high-stakes state tax matters. We defend taxpayers who have relocated from New York and are being challenged on their domicile or statutory residency status, presenting evidence and legal arguments to support your position.
