Internal Revenue Service

My staff and I can assist you with questions regarding the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and any applications you have filed with that agency. If you have been working with the IRS and have encountered problems, we might be able to help. If you have questions that have not been addressed here or would like help with an IRS matter, please print out my Authorization Form and contact my district office.

Also, please see the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) section of the IRS website in addition to the information below.

How do I contact the local IRS office?

Generally, local IRS offices do not allow you to speak with a live person. Most offer a voicemail system, that allows you to leave your message and request that someone in the office return your call.

Please note that while local IRS offices perform many functions, you can also call the the IRS Toll-Free National Contact Center for answers to nearly any tax-related inquiry. Representatives are available from 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Monday through Friday Eastern Standard Time (EST).
