If you received an IRS notice each year, you’re not alone. The Biden administration continues to push for IRS budget increases to ramp up enforcement on delinquent taxpayers, stoking anxiety among millions of Americans who haven’t filed their taxes or owe a balance.
When taxpayers fill out our Tax Relief Survey, they are able to see if they qualify for the IRS Fresh Start Program and begin their journey toward tax resolution in minutes.
So, what can you do if you’re in hot water with the IRS? Here’s some advice:
- Take all IRS notices you receive seriously. Certain notices are more severe than others, but all will eventually lead to wage garnishments, liens and seizure of assets if the problem is not addressed.
- Talk to an expert. One of the best ways to attack your debt before it gets worse is by talking to a qualified tax professional. But not all CPAs or attorneys are qualified to resolve your tax issue. Make sure you speak with a professional who specializes in tax resolution. They talk to the IRS on a regular basis and know how to put forth a case that can convince the IRS to significantly lower your debt or make it easier to pay.
- Don’t ignore it. If you receive an IRS notice in the mail, the worst thing you can do is nothing. Interest and penalties for non-payment will continue to accumulate, ratcheting your debt up even higher.
