26USC7482: "The United States Courts of Appeals (other than the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit) shall have exclusive jurisdiction to review the decisions of the Tax Court, except as provided in section 1254 of Title 28 of the United States Code, in the same manner and to the same extent as decisions of the district courts in civil actions tried without a jury; and the judgment of any such court shall be final, except that it shall be subject to review by the Supreme Court of the United States upon certiorari, in the manner provided in section 1254 of Title 28 of the United States Code."
A taxpayer may request a case to be heard under a special procedure for claims under $50,000. If the taxpayer elects this option, the Tax Court decision is generally not appealable.
A taxpayer may also bring an action in federal district court, the federal court of claims, and in bankruptcy court (if applicable) instead of tax court.
