As a former IRS agent I can tell you that on a quarterly basis, federal tax deposit alerts were sent to the field in our area into which we work. Because the Internal Revenue Service pays out any W-2s submitted by employee you must expect the IRS to be tough on back payroll taxes.
It is one of few taxes that the Internal Revenue Service not only go after the company it can in addition can go after the responsible persons or individuals.
After the IRS creates individual tax assessment for those responsible it often time results in the filing of federal tax liens, bank and wage levy garnishments.
This is a tax that you should not fool around with because it is number one on the IRS to hit list. The Internal Revenue Service will individually engage those responsible under section 6672 of the Internal Revenue Code

Other Factors To Consider
IRS has the right to sell your complete inventory at public auction;
IRS can seize all your accounts receivables;
IRS can hold you personally responsible for this tax;
IRS has the right to lock the doors of your business.
Steps to take to work out an affordable payment plan with the Internal Revenue Service:
Immediately stay current on all payroll tax deposits to show the IRS good faith;
Be prepared to give the IRS a current financial statement;
Make sure your personal tax liabilities are filed and paid;
Have all documentation on the financial statement prepared for the IRS.
If you do not pay your Payroll Taxes IRS can collect them from you individually
To encourage prompt payment of withheld income and employment taxes, including social security taxes, railroad retirement taxes, or collected excise taxes, Congress passed a law that provides for the TFRP.( trust fund recovery penalty )
These payroll taxes are called trust fund taxes because you actually hold the employee’s money in trust until you make a federal tax deposit in that amount.
The TFRP may apply to you if these unpaid trust fund taxes cannot be immediately collected from the business.
The business does not have to have stopped operating in order for the TFRP to be assessed
Who Can Be Responsible for the TFRP
The TFRP may be assessed against any person who:
Is responsible for collecting or paying withheld income and employment taxes, or for paying collected excise taxes, and
Willfully fails to collect or pay them.
A responsible person is a person or group of people who has the duty to perform and the power to direct the collecting, accounting, and paying of trust fund taxes. This person may be:
An officer or an employee of a corporation,
A member or employee of a partnership,
A corporate director or shareholder,
A member of a board of trustees of a nonprofit organization,
Another person with authority and control over funds to direct their disbursement,
Another corporation or third-party payer,
Payroll Service Providers (PSP) ore responsible parties within a PSP
Professional Employer Organizations (PEO) or responsible parties within a PEO, or
Responsible parties within the common law employer (client of PSP/PEO).
For wilfulness to exist, the responsible person:
Must have been, or should have been, aware of the outstanding taxes and either intentionally disregarded the law or was plainly indifferent to its requirements (no evil intent or bad motive is required).
Using available funds to pay other creditors when the business is unable to pay the employment taxes is an indication of willfulness. You will be asked to complete an interview in order to determine the full scope of your duties and responsibilities.
Responsibility is based on whether an individual exercised independent judgment with respect to the financial affairs of the business.
An employee is not a responsible person if the employee’s function was solely to pay the bills as directed by a superior, rather than to determine which creditors would or would not be paid.
Figuring the Trust Fund Amount
The amount of the penalty is equal to the unpaid balance of the trust fund tax. The penalty is computed based on:
The unpaid income taxes withheld, plus
The employee’s portion of the withheld FICA taxes. For collected taxes, the penalty is based on the unpaid amount of collected excise taxes.
Assessing the TFRP. If the IRS determines that you are a responsible person, we will provide you a letter stating that we plan to assess the TFRP against you. You have 60 days (75 days if this letter is addressed to you outside the United States) from the date of this letter to appeal our proposal.
The letter will explain your appeal rights. Refer to Publication 5, Your Appeal Rights and How to Prepare a Protest if You Don’t Agree (PDF), for a clear outline of the appeals process. If you do not respond to our letter, we will assess the penalty against you and send you a Notice and Demand for Payment.
Once we assert the penalty, the IRS can take collection action against your personal assets. For instance, we can file a federal tax lien or take levy or seizure action.

The Secret Formula: How The IRS Picks Audits
The IRS uses a quantitative method called discriminate Analysis to identify the ‘underreporters’ from the normal returns, driven largely by the following details.
• Schedule A Ratio: They’ll audit you if your schedule A (Itemized) deductions are more than 44% of your income.
• Schedule C Ratio: They’ll audit you if your ratio of schedule C (Business) deductions is more than 63% of income.
• Schedule F Ratio: They’ll audit you if your ratio of schedule F (Farm) deductions is more than 67% of income.
• Audits are 4x more likely if you own a business and 2x if you own a farm.
• The Obama administration has always focused on high earners:
◦ Audits 5x more likely if your income is above $100,000.
◦ 20% chance of audit if you make $10+ million. (20x the average audit rate)
◦ 12% chance of audit if you make $5-10 million. (12x the average audit rate)
• Occupation affects your audit likelihood
◦ 22% of business and personal services companies are audited every year.
◦ 16% of building contractors are audited every year.
ALERT : The IRS Tax Audit Examination Plan:
What you Need to Know about the IRS
The IRS audit plan that is used by the IRS is based on long-range coverage planning, and objectives on the resources requested in the Congressional Budget.
From this, there is an established plan where staff years are allocated to all area IRS offices using resource allocation and a prescribed methodology.
Each Area Manager of the IRS is responsible for preparing an area response following instructions from the National Headquarters.
Why the IRS Audits Tax Returns
IRS Tax Audits : Although there are a variety of reasons listed below some are the most common.
a. Front Loaded Programs
Front Loaded programs are those tax audits that IRS DC headquarters has determined are very important and a considerable amount of time must be spent on these programs and activities. Each area has discussions within management as to what the programs should be for each region, district, and office.
Some of the programs are:
• Special enforcement programs – An example of this may be compliance of all flee market vendors, a program I was involved with
• High Income non-filers – The IRS would get their information from a match program of w-2’s and 1099’s and match up social security numbers against filed returns
• Abusive Tax Avoidance – This could be in the area of offshore activities
• Offshore credit card program
• National Research programs – Those set forth by management after doing a trends project
• FBAR filing – IRS is currently targeting those with overseas bank accounts
• Non- filers – IRS is presently forming a task force to seek non-filers though aggressive means.
b. The IRS makes sure there is balanced coverage.
The National Office makes sure there is a balanced approach for audit return delivery and tax compliance. Resources and inventory and the size of personnel all go into this formula.
IRS focuses are blended into these areas:
1. Individual returns less than $100,000.
2. Individual returns greater than $100,000 but less than $200,000.
3. Individual returns greater than $ 200,000.
4. Small Business Corporations.
5. Small Business Flow-Through Entities – S Corporations, Fiduciaries and Partnerships.
c. Classification Plan
The IRS will prepare a plan, which is classified. A National DIF score indicator is placed on all Federal Income tax returns that are filed.
Each tax return has certain factors that contribute to its score such as Gross Income, Adjusted Gross Income and line item expense.
There are several classified secrets that go into the DIF score.
Each tax return is processed through the IRS computer line item by line item.
A DIF score label is placed on every tax return with its DIF number.
A tax examiner or Revenue Agent manually eyeballs each and every tax return with a high DIF score.
The examiner then determine which return has the highest probability of tax audit success.
d. DIF Cutoff Score, this is the most common reason for audit. each and every tax return has a DIF score, this stands for discriminatory index function.
The IRS will calculate the Area DIF cutoff score for each activity code, giving consideration to the selection rate.
This is the lowest DIF score necessary to secure the number of returns required for audit. For example, if the return plan shows 225 returns for an activity code and the selection rate is 70%, the IRS will need to order 321 returns (225/70%).
The DIF Cut off Score is 500. The number of returns with DIF scores greater than 550 is 280, which is less than the number of returns required, so the lowest DIF score on an ordered return will be in the range of 500 to 550 and the DIF cutoff score is 500.
All tax returns are graded by the Internal Revenue Service. That’s right, each and every tax return has a DIF score.
There is a label placed on the back of every tax return that grades audit potential.
Much of the audit numbers are predicated on the budget that Congress gives to the IRS.
Over the last couple years the number of audits are going down by small percentages simply because they do not have working staff to handle all the IRS audits that are truly needed. It is not wise to play the audit lottery.

First of All, what is a IRS Tax Levy?
A levy is a legal seizure of your property to satisfy a tax debt.
Levies are different from liens.
A lien is a legal claim against property to secure payment of the tax debt, while a levy actually takes the property to satisfy the tax debt.
Where does Internal Revenue Service (IRS) authority to levy originate?
The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) authorizes levies to collect delinquent tax. See IRC 6331. Any property or right to property that belongs to the taxpayer or on which there is a Federal tax lien can be levied, unless the IRC exempts the property from levy.
What actions must the Internal Revenue Service take before a IRS tax levy can be issued?
The IRS will usually levy only after these three requirements are met:
1• The IRS assessed the tax and sent you a Notice and Demand for Payment (a tax bill);
2• You neglected or refused to pay the tax; and
3• The IRS sent you a Final Notice of Intent to Levy and Notice of Your Right to A Hearing (levy notice) at least 30 days before the levy.
The IRS may give you this notice in person, leave it at your home or your usual place of business, or send it to your last known address by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.
Please note: if the IRS levies your state tax refund, you may receive a Notice of Levy on Your State Tax Refund, Notice of Your Right to Hearing after the levy.
When will the IRS issue IRS tax levy/wage garnishments?
If you do not pay your taxes (or make arrangements to settle your debt), and the IRS determines that a levy is the next appropriate action, the IRS may levy any property or right to property you own or have an interest in.
For instance, the IRS could levy property that is yours, but is held by someone else (such as your wages, retirement accounts, dividends, bank accounts, licenses, rental income, accounts receivables, the cash loan value of your life insurance, or commissions).
