In re: John C & Trudy Patriot
Docket No. 666-066

Dear JCraig Young,

You sent me your letter dated June 21, 2007. I will send copies of records to substantiate business expenditures and deductions. We had tax return preparation expenses less than $200.

Please schedule a settlement conference for us in Greenville, SC. In other cases your office has deputized IRS agents in Greenville to represent your office in conferences held in Greenville. We are entitled to face-to-face conferences by law and are not required to participate in telephone hearings.

Yours,

John and Trudy Patriot
