SUMMARY ORDER
Petitioner-Appellant James Seeley, proceeding pro se, appeals from the Tax Courts February 3, 2020 order dismissing his case for lack of jurisdiction. On October 15, 2019, Seeley filed an amended petition in the Tax Court disputing a notice of deficiency for the year 2010, but also stating that he had never received a notice of deficiency. The Commissioner moved to dismiss on the ground that the IRS had no record of issuing Seeley a notice of deficiency for 2010 or any other notice that would confer jurisdiction on the Tax Court. Seeley opposed the motion to dismiss but did not dispute that he was never issued a notice of deficiency; nor did he argue that there was any other basis for the Tax Courts jurisdiction. We assume the parties’ familiarity with the underlying facts, the procedural history of the case, and the issues on appeal. We review de novo “[t]he Tax Courts interpretation of federal statutes, including statutes delimiting the scope of its own jurisdiction.”
1
The Tax Court is “a court of limited jurisdiction that possesses only those powers expressly conferred upon it by Congress[.]”
2
The IRS must “follow statutorily prescribed deficiency procedures to recover unpaid tax,”
3
including the issuance of a notice of deficiency as described in 26 U.S.C. § 6212, and, pursuant to § 6213, this notice of deficiency is “the jurisdictional prerequisite to a taxpayers suit in the Tax Court for redetermination of his tax liability.”
4
Where, as here, the IRS has failed to issue a notice of deficiency to the taxpayer before recovering unpaid income taxes the Tax Court lacks jurisdiction to review the deficiency determination.
5
Seeley argues that the Tax Court had jurisdiction over his case under 26 U.S.C. § 6330(c)(2)(B) and (f)(2), and because it “has jurisdiction to hear cases for tax deficiencies.”
6
Section 6330 provides that, before the IRS levies a persons property, the person must be given notice and an opportunity for a hearing at the IRS Independent Office of Appeals, and that a determination by that office may be appealed to the Tax Court.
7
It also states that a person who “did not receive any statutory notice of deficiency” may challenge a tax liability imposed without such notice at a hearing before the Office of Appeals,
8
and that if the IRS has levied a state tax refund to collect a federal tax liability, “the taxpayer shall be given the opportunity” for a hearing before the Office of Appeals.
9
The provisions Seeley cites are unavailing because they only confirm that the Office of Appeals—and not the Tax Court—has jurisdiction to review Seeleys claim.
Seeley also asserts that the IRS did issue a notice of deficiency, even though he did not receive one. However, the record contains no evidence that the IRS ever issued such a notice and the Commissioner determined, based on a diligent review of IRS records, that no “notice of deficiency” within the meaning of 26 U.S.C. § 6212 was ever issued to Seeley for tax year 2010. Accordingly, the Tax Court correctly dismissed Seeleys case for lack of jurisdiction.
10
CONCLUSION
We have considered all Seeleys arguments and find them to be without merit. Accordingly, we AFFIRM the February 3, 2020 order of the Tax Court.

. Appellants Br. at 5-7. We construe Seeleys citation to “26 U.S.C. § 6230(f)(2)” as a citation to 26 U.S.C. § 6330(f)(2) because there is no § 6230 in either the Code of Federal Regulations or the U.S. Code, and 26 U.S.C. § 6330(f)(2) discusses IRS levies on state tax refunds, which is one aspect of Seeleys dispute with the IRS.
