How to Stop a IRS Bank Tax Levy, IRS Tax Wage Garnishment Levy NOW
It is important to know where your cases in the system to begin the stop the IRS tax levy.
There is a difference between a bank levy in a wage levy garnishment.
Both are seizures, a bank levy is a freeze on your bank account for 21 days where as a wage levy is an immediate seizure on your wage.
If IRS has sent over a 668W, your employer may not pay you until they get a release from the federal government. You will approximately receive about 20% of your gross pay.
There is also a difference between an IRS levy and a tax lien. A tax levy is a seizure and the tax lien is placed in the County of your residence to put the public on notice you owe back tax debt to the Internal Revenue Service.
IRS files 1.8 million tax levies every year and files over 600,000 federal tax liens.
Some taxpayers were sent a IRS letter 11 indicating that a tax levy was the next step, while others have been sent a IRS tax levy from the ACS unit out of various IRS offices, while others have been sent tax levies by revenue officers in the local offices.
If you have received IRS letter 11 there is a collection due process hearing that can stop the IRS levy.
If your case is in the ACS unit or the local office we can simply send over a power of attorney and start negotiation power to go ahead to get an immediate levy release and settle your IRS case at the same time.
IRS Final Notices before IRS Tax Levy or Garnishment
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 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. If you have moved and did not notify the IRS, you are out of luck because you did not receive a final notice from IRS.
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.
IRS Tax Billing Notices for IRS Tax Levies & IRS Wage Garnishments
The IRS will send out final notices before levies and seizures after they generally send out a series of five billing notices.
On the fourth notice, taxpayers will receive their final notice in which they can go ahead and file with the appeals division of Internal Revenue Service to stop the levy.
Not only can we go ahead and stop the IRS notice of intent to levy, we can settle your case at the same time.
All your tax returns are going to have to be filed and if that is an issue for you, with or without tax records we can prepare your tax returns.
How IRS Settles Collection Cases
As a general rule, the Internal Revenue Service will take your current financial statement and after they reviewed your documented financial statement there is generally two ways IRS closes cases.
They generally closes your back taxes case by taxpayers putting you into a:
1.currently not collectible statuses or,
2. ask for a monthly payment agreement.
For taxpayers who owe back taxes statistics show that 40% of all taxpayers are placed in currently not collectible status, while 6.5 million taxpayers enter monthly payment or installment agreement.

There are many myths about the pennies on the dollar program so you need to hear the truth before spending any money.
I know the system inside and out. As a former IRS agent I used to accept and reject offers in compromise.
I have heard countless horror stories from taxpayers who called me about firms that have ripped them off promising settlements. There is a very specific system and methodology to get an offer in compromise approved for pennies on the dollar. Last year 38,000 taxpayers had their cases accepted.
The question is pennies on the dollar possible to settle tax debt?
Yes, it is as a matter of fact, over 38,000 taxpayers got their debt settled with the Internal Revenue Service for average settlement of $6500 last year.
There were a total of 78,000 applications for the pennies on the dollar, offer in compromise program last year.

The IRS spends a lot of due diligence before they accept an offer in compromise. It is possible for the IRS to spend over 20 hours working an offer in compromise.
On cases over $100,000 it is typical they will check your credit report for the accuracy of your financial statement. The higher the dollar case the greater the due diligence.
Many people ask why is this process not that simple. The answer is this, all accepted offers in compromise are a matter of public record for one year in the regional office where the offer was accepted.
The Internal Revenue Service does all that it can to make sure there is a matter of consistency within the offer in compromise program if not still be a tremendous public outcry.
Right now there are over 7500 cases in the offer queue to be worked. The average offer takes about nine months to work.

Below you will find out what you need to know about the offer in compromise program.
Offers in Compromise
• Lump Sum Cash Payment:
Submit an initial payment of 20 percent of the total offer amount with your application. Wait for written acceptance, then pay the remaining balance of the offer in five or fewer payments.
• Periodic Payment:
Submit your initial payment with your application.
Continue to pay the remaining balance in monthly installments while the IRS considers your offer. If accepted, continue to pay monthly until it is paid in full.

The IRS Tax Audit Examination Plan
What you Need to Know about the IRS Audit
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
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: Keep in mind they are not limited to any one particular thing.
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. Knowing the DIF score formulas are like knowing the the secrets to the Coca-Cola formula.
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.

There is a way to get back in the system without pain, HOW, simply file your tax returns.
The Big Question : How many back years do I file? Answer, read below
The answer varies on the facts of the case. As a general rule, as former IRS agents and managers we recommend you file anywhere between three and six years.
Some of the determining factors in making decisions are:
1. how much income have you made in the last six years,
2. what is your asset base,
3. what do your bank accounts look like,
4. have you always operated in cash,
5. what are your average monthly expenses for the time of nonfiling.

We have prepared hundreds upon hundreds of tax returns of taxpayers who have never filed. We can walk you to the process and get you back in the system seamlessly.
Below you will find the IRS policy statement regarding people who will never file tax returns.
What happens if I owe back taxes, there are available programs to help settle tax debt?
If you will owe back taxes we will work out a tax settlement for you.
IRS will require a current financial statement on form 433F expect that financial statement to be fully documented. IRS will want copies of bank statements, pay stubs and all current expenses that you have.
The Internal Revenue Service has standards of acceptable allowances. When you call our office we will review with you the national standards.
As a general rule, IRS places taxpayers who cannot pay their back tax debt into one of three categories to close back tax cases:
IRS will consider you either to be a:
1 . Current hardship,
2. a monthly candidate for payments, or
3. a tax debt settlement candidate for the offer in compromise program.
Keep in mind that the determination that IRS will make your open case if you owe back taxes is completely dependent on your current financial statement, therefore the filling out, the documentation will determine your outcome on your case.
That’s why it is critical you have a trustworthy tax firm help resolve these issues for you so you need not worry.
Policies + IRS has a policy statement regarding filing past due tax returns
1.2.14.1.18 (08-04-2006)
IRS Policy Statement 5-133
1. Delinquent or prior years tax returns—enforcement of filing requirements
2. Taxpayers failing to file tax returns will be requested to prepare and file all such returns except in instances where there is an indication that the taxpayer’s failure to file the required return or returns was willful or if there is any other indication of fraud.
All delinquent returns submitted by a taxpayer, whether upon his/her own initiative or at the request of a Service representative, will be accepted.
However, if indications of wilfulness or fraud exist, the special procedures for handling such returns must be followed.
3. Where it is determined that required returns have not been filed, the extent to which compliance for prior years will be enforced will be determined by reference to factors ensuring compliance and evenhanded administration of staffing and other Service resources.
4. Factors to be taken into account include, but are not limited to:
a. prior history of noncompliance,
b. existence of income from illegal sources, effect upon voluntary compliance, anticipated revenue, and collectibility, in relation to the time and effort required to determine tax due.
Consideration will also be given any special circumstances existing in the case of a particular taxpayer, class of taxpayer, or industry, or which may be peculiar to the class of tax involved.
5. Normally, application of the above criteria will result in enforcement of delinquency procedures for not more than six (6) years. There are special cases in which the IRS will ask for more than six years.
Those cases generally involve those with a great deal of access with a high potential of collection and probability. There are very few cases that meet this criteria.
