Frequently asked questions
Do you serve taxpayers outside Chula Vista?
Yes. D'Ruiz Services is located in Chula Vista and serves taxpayers from across San Diego County.
What is a correspondence audit?

Can you help after I already responded to the IRS?
Potentially. Bring the original notice, your response, and any subsequent IRS correspondence so the current posture of the matter can be reviewed.
