The District of Columbia Tax Mediation Program is a voluntary program designed to help taxpayers resolve disputes with the District of Columbia Office of Tax and Revenue (OR). It provides an informal setting for taxpayers and OR to discuss potential solutions to their tax-related issues. There are two types of District of Columbia Tax Mediation Program Procedures: Remediation and Mediation. Remediation involves a meeting between the taxpayer and OR representatives prior to the mediation. During this meeting, the taxpayer and OR representatives will discuss the issue at hand, the potential solutions, and the procedures for the mediation. Mediation is the actual process of resolving the tax-related dispute. During the mediation, the taxpayer and OR representatives will work together to come to an agreement. The taxpayer has the opportunity to present their case and the OR representatives have the opportunity to present their case. Once an agreement has been reached, the taxpayer and OR representatives will sign the agreement and the dispute will be resolved. The District of Columbia Tax Mediation Program is designed to provide taxpayers with a fair and efficient process to resolve their tax-related disputes. It is an alternative dispute resolution method that can help taxpayers avoid costly litigation.
