Wage Levy (Form 668W)
The IRS wage and garnishment levy, Form 668W, is a continuous wage levy. Each and every time you get paid this federal tax levy is in effect. IRS will not release this levy until you have contacted them and provided them certain information or your back taxes are paid in full. Also all tax returns must be filed before IRS will release this levy no matter what the hardship. If a hardship exists the IRS may release the wage levy if all tax returns are filed. Otherwise, in most cases IRS will require a current financial statement completely documented before they release the levy.
The Internal Revenue Service has sent this wage levy out because you did not respond to prior notices that were sent by them. Many times taxpayers never received the notices or have moved. Regardless of the situation, IRS will expect you to contact them and resolve the situation. According to the 2009 IRS tables on wage levy’s the IRS will allow a single taxpayer claiming one exemption $179.81 dollar per week, the rest of your paycheck will go to IRS. Very few people in the U.S. can live on $179.81 per week.

The second action required is that you will need to complete a Form 433F financial statement. That is the Internal Revenue Service’s basic tool to resolve all problems. IRS will review the statement and make a determination on your case. You will need to provide supporting documentation for the information on Form 433F so IRS knows that the statement is truthful. Also, you will need to provide copies of bank statements, pay stubs and your monthly bills.

Usually, IRS reviews the financial statement and sets you up on a installment agreement or a part pay agreement. They can have you pay monthly in a variety of ways, such as monthly checks, payroll deductions or automatic bank payments. The other common way to close you case is with a financial hardship. That is, you simply do not have the money to pay the IRS and your monthly bills. In this type of case the IRS will place your case in a noncollectable file.

IRS will file multiple liens if you have assets in different states. The federal tax lien at some point will become a real nuisance you must deal with.
