Form 2848, Power of Attorney

A Power of Attorney is is an authorization to act on someone else’s behalf in a legal or business matter. The person authorizing the other to act is the principal or granter (of the power), and the one authorized to act is the agent or attorney.

In order to have an attorney represent you before the Internal Revenue Service you need to complete an IRS Form 2848, Power of Attorney. The individual you authorize must be a person eligible to practice before the IRS (i.e. attorneys, enrolled agents, certified public accounts, tax preparers, etc.). Your authorization will allow that individual to receive and inspect your confidential tax information and act on your behalf when resolving issues with the Internal Revnue Service.
