The IRS terrocrats like intimidating us with a "Notice of Deficiency" and alleging that we can only excape paying the sum it names by appealing to Tax Court within 90 days. Since Tax Court is run by a set of pro-IRS hacks and not by a jury, such appeals will certainly fail. So no, all the deficiencies are in their "Notice", and not in you at all, if you filed zero.

Audiotape Series 4 Tape 1 reports an IRS tactic of trying to issue Notices of Deficiency prior to a Hearing, also prerequisite; and what to do about that. Tape 3 explains why Notices of Deficiency in our cases are void, and so why it is not necessary to appeal to Tax Court.
