The Fast Track Settlement program is an alternative dispute resolution program jointly administered by TE/GE and the Independent Office of Appeals (Appeals) to expedite exam case resolution at the earliest opportunity and with the least amount of time. The program¡¯s purpose is to enable taxpayers and the IRS to work together in resolving disputed issues while the case remains in TE/GE jurisdiction. The process includes an Appeals officer trained in mediation, the TE/GE manager and agent, and the taxpayer and his or her representatives.
