Agenda
The NYU School of Professional Studies Tax Controversy Forum brings together representatives from the government and expert private practitioners to compare perspectives on a variety of topics involving federal tax audits, appeals, and litigation. The forum covers a wide range of controversy work, from procedural seminars to substantive programs, international issues, ethical problems, current enforcement initiatives, sensitive audits, and civil and criminal tax penalties.
Enforcement is an essential part of our federal tax system. The Tax Controversy Forum is an opportunity to stay current on new developments, exchange ideas, and share practice tips, which can contribute to a better functioning system.
The forum is designed for accountants, attorneys, enrolled agents, in-house practitioners, and tax professionals at all levels who prepare for or handle audits, appeals, or tax litigation, as well as those who are involved in planning and transactional work and who could benefit from a better understanding of the implications of their work for audit defense.
Agenda is forthcoming.

The Westin New York at Times Square
The 2024 16th Annual Tax Controversy Forum will be held at the Westin New York at Times Square and is conveniently located in Midtown Manhattan at 270 West 43rd Street, on the corner of Eighth Avenue. It is a short walk to nearby Broadway theaters, Fifth Avenue shopping, the Empire State Building, Times Square, and major museums. To provide a quality Forum at the best possible cost, we have negotiated special room rates and have committed to a block of rooms at the Westin. We ask you to support our efforts by reserving your accommodations within the designated room block. Your support allows us to keep our registration fees reasonable.
For the 2024 conference, rooms are available at the group rate of $470. To make your reservation, call 888-627-7149 or 212-201-2700 and identify yourself as attending the NYU conference. We urge you to make your hotel and travel plans early to avoid disappointment. Hotel rooms can sell out prior to the cut-off date. These rooms will be held as a block, unless exhausted, until June 5, 2024, at which time they will be released to the general public.
