The State Bar of Michigan’s Tax Pro Bono Program (Tax Program), a statewide partnership between the Taxation Section of the State Bar of Michigan and Access to Justice Committee, will be conducting a free webinar training. This training is excellent for attorneys who are new to the area of tax law, as well as experienced attorneys looking for a refresher course. The webinar will survey the most common tax-related issues facing clients of the Tax Program.

Training topics will include:

• IRS notices (notice of intent to lien or levy; notice of deficiency)
• IRS liens or levies
• Collection alternatives
• Offers in Compromise
• Installment Agreements
• Currently Not Collectible
• Innocent/injured spouse relief
• ID theft and tax preparer fraud
• Recovering back tax refunds (VITA sites)
• Corresponding Michigan issues (Michigan collection alternatives)
• Private collection agency actions

The training will be conducted by Professors Nicole Appleberry, Joshua Wease, and Christina Thompson, instructors at the low-income taxpayer clinics at MSU and U of M Law Schools.

If you are unable to attend the training but would like to be placed on the Tax Pro Bono Program’s pro bono attorney panel, please register here.

A recording of the training will be made available to all pro bono attorney panel members.
