Is it worth it? Tax I own a small business as a sole trader and every year my accountant tries to sell me audit protection insurance (AKA Auditshield). The cost is approx $300.00.. As someone who's worked in firms that offer audit shield, I'd not recommend it for the vast majority of business owners.. Buying audit protection doesn't protect you from being audited. In that sense, it's a little bit like identity theft insurance. ID theft insurance doesn't prevent you from having your identity stolen, but it can make the cleanup process a bit easier. Audit protection is an add-on service provided by some tax filing companies.

In this situation Audit Shield provides some value. If your business is very transactional based with straight forward bookkeeping, the cost to respond to an audit will likely be low, because the time spent providing your documentation will be low. In this situation, Audit Shield provides little value.. Audit protection means IF the IRS comes calling, and you bought the service, THEY will handle all the dealings with the agency and file the paperwork. And that's worth the (reasonable) cost of admission in my opinion. It's like car insurance. Utterly useless until you get in a crash.
