Power of attorney regarding representation in tax matters

Even if you have authorized me to prepare your tax return, I still require a power of attorney to represent you in tax matters. This is the only way the tax authorities can communicate with me and the only way I can access your online tax account to retrieve data electronically. If you would like the tax authorities to send written documents and tax assessment notices directly to me, you will also need to grant me power of attorney to receive them. The same form is used for this purpose.
