In this episode you will learn:
- Under Circular 230 Section 10.20, you must promptly submit records upon a lawful IRS request.
- If you don't possess requested records, you must notify the IRS and identify who you believe has them.
- An exam trap is choosing an answer that only states you don't have the records, which is an incomplete duty.
- Information may be withheld if you have a good-faith belief it is privileged, but the privilege must be formally asserted.
- Remember the 'PIP' mnemonic: Promptly respond, Inform and Identify, or assert a valid Privilege.
