Under the Internal Revenue Service Restructuring Act of 1998, more than attorney’s can have attorney-client privileges. The service extended the benefit to anyone who can legally practice before the IRS.
See the enclosed ruling as set forth by the IRS:
The attorney-client privilege is now applicable to communications between taxpayers and individuals authorized to practice before the Service. The privilege is not extended to criminal tax matters or proceedings nor to communications regarding corporate tax shelters. Act § 3411(a) adding I.R.C. § 7525(a)(2). The amendment is effective with regard to communications made on or after, July 22.
This privilege exists today.
