Topic 311 - Power of Attorney Information
If you want someone to represent you before the IRS on a Federal tax matter,
file Form 2848 (PDF), Power of Attorney and
Declaration of Representative, with the IRS office where you want your
representative to act for you. Your representative must be a person authorized
to practice before the IRS. Your signature on Form 2848 allows the individual
or individuals named to represent you before the IRS and to receive your tax
information. Refer to Topic 312, Disclosure Authorizations,
if you want to allow a person to receive your tax information, but do not
want this person to represent you before the IRS.
For additional information, see Form 2848 Instructions and Publication 947, Practice Before the IRS and Power of Attorney.
