Taxpayers need to know the facts about ending IRS back tax problem.

There are five different methods to END your IRS back tax problem.


1. By Payment in Full, obvious but the easiest way to eliminate the problem,

2. By monthly or installment payments, there are various type payment plans. Monthly installment plans are based on the facts and circumstances of your case. Once again your ability to pay and your current financial statement will determine how IRS will move forward.

3. By the Acceptance of an offer in compromise, (this is how your completely eliminate the tax debt)

Last year the IRS reviewed over 78,000 offers in compromise and accepted approximately 38% for an average settlement of $9500. Don’t let these numbers misguide you, these are based on averages only and different from case to case.

4. By statue expiration. (this is how your completely eliminate the tax debt.

The general statute of limitation on collection cases is 10 years from the date of the assessment.

The assessment date is when your tax return actually gets puts on the IRS computer system. You need an IRS tax transcript to find out when that period begins. Please understand that there are times when the statute of limitations are extended; such as the filing of an offer in compromise, bankruptcy, litigation, and the filing of a collection due process. As I said before you must check your IRS transcript to find out when the statute does toll & expire.

5. For those who cannot pay their debt IRS has a non-collectible or hardship program. 40% of all cases in the open inventory in the collection division are close by hardship.

A hardship case is placed in a non-collectible status after IRS takes a look at a financial statement in its verified documentation. When IRS determines that it is uncollectible, the case is frozen for one or two years. It is only a temporary status, generally these cases do come back out Heyfor review two years later. IRS will continue to take any refund during those periods of time

Upon your initial free tax consultation we will walk through the various programs and let you know the easiest way to exactly resolve your back tax debt.



“The Offer in Compromise”

First and foremost, as a former IRS agent and teaching instructor I accepted and rejected offers from the Internal Revenue Service. I taught the offer in compromise program to IRS agents who were qualified to step up subtle tax debt.

There was a lot of training involved in a revenue officer agent to become an offer specialist, they use seasoned revenue officers who understand the financial process and what’s in the best interest for the government and the taxpayer.

Everyone wants to settle with IRS but there is a very specific format and methodology that must be followed.

There are many myths about the pennies on the dollar program so you need to hear the truth before spending any money.

There are many firms that take your money and then let you know after the fact you are not qualified. you need to know before hand whether you have a fighting chance. Being a former IRS agent employee gives you a huge advantage of having the review your offer in compromise to settle your tax debt.

At our firm we will take no clients money until we are no they are a true candidate for the settlement program.

There are many myths about the offer in compromise so IRS in their great wisdom provides a pre-qualifier tool to find out if taxpayers are eligible for the offer in compromise program so taxpayers do not give their hard-earned money to unsuspecting tax firms promising tax settlements.

When IRS determines that they will settle with you, IRS will consider your unique set of facts and circumstances:

• Ability to pay;

• Income;

• Expenses; and

• Asset equity.



IRS will generally approve an offer in compromise when the amount offered represents the most we can expect to collect within a reasonable period of time.
