A Wage Levy occurs when the IRS sends a Notice of Levy to your employer, demanding a portion of your paycheck be sent directly to them. If your employer doesn't comply, they could be held liable for your tax debt. Wage garnishment can be stressful, leaving you with much less income. If your wages are being garnished, contact us immediately.
Statute of Limitations
The Statute of Limitations sets time limits for IRS actions, such as audits (3 years) and collections (10 years). Certain payment plans can extend the collection period by suspending the statute while pending. Knowing when the Statute of Limitations expires is important, but so is understanding how to use that information. Our tax experts will assess how it applies to your case and guide you on the best course of action.

We help assess your tax debt and negotiate a payment plan with the IRS. Don’t let tax issues linger—contact us today to resolve your liability.

Currently Not Collectible
If paying your tax debt causes financial hardship, you may qualify for Currently Not Collectible (CNC) status, which halts IRS collections. To qualify, you must prove you can't pay after basic living expenses or by selling assets. Applying for CNC status can be complex, but our tax professionals know IRS rules and can submit your application, increasing your chances of success.
Injured Spouse Relief
You may qualify for Injured Spouse Relief if the IRS offsets your portion of a joint refund to cover your spouse’s debts, like taxes, child support, or student loans. Unlike Innocent Spouse Relief, which addresses shared liabilities, Injured Spouse Relief applies when you’re unfairly denied your refund. Our tax experts will review your case to determine if you qualify for Injured Spouse Relief or other IRS relief programs.
IRS Audit Representation
Received an IRS Audit Notice? An audit reviews your accounts to ensure accurate reporting. Ignoring it can lead to the IRS filing your return, often resulting in higher taxes. Don't face an audit alone—our experienced team can represent you, often saving you more than the cost of representation and helping resolve the audit quickly.
Obtain Your IRS File
The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) allows you to access your IRS file, helping you understand your tax situation. We can discreetly request your file, ensuring no unnecessary attention is drawn to any liabilities. After reviewing your IRS file, we'll explain it in simple terms and recommend the best course of action to resolve your tax issue.
Offer in Compromise
An Offer in Compromise lets you settle your tax debt for less than what you owe, often if paying in full would cause financial hardship. The IRS approves offers when the amount offered is the most it can collect in a reasonable time. We’ll assess your financial situation to see if you qualify and recommend other payment options if needed.
Payroll Taxes Owed
Falling behind on IRS payroll taxes can jeopardize both your business and personal finances. The IRS closely monitors small businesses that miss payroll tax payments and may target your personal assets, even if your business files for bankruptcy. If you've received IRS notice about payroll issues, it's crucial to act fast. Our tax experts can help resolve your payroll tax problems so you can focus on running your business.
Penalty/Interest Abatement
IRS penalties and interest can quickly escalate your tax debt. Late filing, payment, and negligence penalties, along with interest on unpaid taxes, can significantly increase your liability. If you're struggling, we can help. The IRS may waive certain penalties for reasonable cause, and many taxpayers qualify for a first-time penalty waiver. While interest is rarely revoked, there are exceptions, especially if the IRS made an error.
Unfiled Returns
If you've missed filing a tax return, do so immediately—even if you can't pay. The penalties for not filing are often worse than filing without full payment, and failing to file can lead to heavy fines or even jail time. We can help you resolve this with the IRS. After filing your missing returns, we’ll assist with a payment plan or Offer in Compromise.
Seizures
An IRS seizure can take your property—car, boat, jewelry, or even your home—to pay your tax debt. If you've been notified of a seizure, you still have options. You may qualify for an Offer in Compromise, Innocent Spouse Relief, or Currently Not Collectible status. If the IRS has already seized your assets, we can request an Asset Levy Release to potentially recover your property. Contact us today for assistance.
