The Process of Getting Tax Debt Relief + Various IRS Tax Solutions
We need to look to find out if you were truly responsible under 6672 of the IRS code. many time IRS ram rods these penalties to people who truly were not responsible for trust fund taxes.
I’ve work so many cases and being a former IRS agent IRS just tries to set these penalties up against everybody and many people do not have proper representation to fight IRS.
We will carefully review your case to find out if you were truly responsible for the trust fund penalty.
We will conduct a review to find out if there is any way that we can appeal for change the assessment of this trust fund tax.
If we feel we would’ve beat this assessment through the appellate process we can go ahead and file an offer in compromise as to doubt as to liability and appeal this assessment.
If you are responsible for the tax, IRS will take a current financial statement and make a determination based on the collectibility of the tax.
How the Internal Revenue Service will work your case if you owe the IRS tax debt.
IRS will require a 433A, an individual financial statement. You can find that form directly on our website. Many times the IRS uses 43 3F, depending were the cases in the system. Cases worked in the ACS system uses shorter version of the financial statement. if the case is worked in the local office the revenue officer will use form 433.A
That financial statement will need to be fully documented along with bank statements, copies of checks and monthly expenses. We will walk you through the process of how the IRS will work your case in the collection action that can possibly taken. Will also review with you the IRS national standards program on all cases for those who owe back taxes.
Once IRS reviews your current financial statement they will make a determination and generally put you in one of two categories with the option of filing an offer in compromise.
1.IRS determines on 40% of the cases that taxpayers are put into hardship which means they can’t pay the tax at this time. Sometimes it is called currently not collectible. Cases that are placed at currently not collectible or hardship stay in there for a period of 2 to 3 years and come back out to the field at a later time.
2. 6.5 million people enter monthly payment plans and pay a certain amount based on their current documented financial statement.
Other taxpayers file an offer in compromise to settle their case for pennies on the dollar. the offer in compromise requires a lot of skill and expertise to have accepted by the Internal Revenue Service.
The reason I know I am a former IRS agent and teaching instructor of the offer in compromise. I’m a true expert when it comes to the acceptances of offer in compromise. we will carefully review your case to find out if you are an acceptable candidate.
Before you go filing for offer in compromise find out if you are a qualified candidate by walking through the pre-qualifier tool. IRS accepts 38% of all offers in compromise filed for average settlement of $6500 per case. This $ 6500 is very dependent on your financial statement.

The Appeal Trust Fund System
Because people sometimes disagree on tax matters, the Service has an appeal system.
Most differences can be settled within this system without going to court.
Reasons for disagreeing must come within the scope of tax laws, however.
For example, an appeal of a case cannot be based only on moral, religious, political, constitutional, conscientious, or similar grounds.
A case may be taken directly to tax court if the taxpayer does not want to appeal within the IRS.
Appeal Within the IRS
The tax decision reached by the examiner may be appealed to a local appeals office, which is separate and independent of the IRS Office that conducted the examination.
An appeals office is the only level of appeal within the IRS. Conferences with appeals office personnel may be conducted in person, through correspondence, or by telephone with the taxpayer or its authorized representative
Instructions for requesting a conference with an appeals officer are provided in the letter of proposed tax adjustment.
In FSLG, the Letter 950 is generally used to propose adjustments to employment taxes. It states that to request a conference with an appeals officer, the taxpayer will need to file either a small case request or a formal written protest with the contact person named in the letter.
Whether you file a small case request or a formal written protest depends on several factors.
If a conference is requested the examiner will send the conference request letter to the appeals office to arrange for a conference at a convenient time and place.
The taxpayer or its qualified representative should be prepared to discuss all disputed issues at the conference.
Most differences are settled at this level.
Making a Small Case Request
A small case request is appropriate if the total amount of tax, penalties, and interest for each tax period involved is $25,000 or less.
If more than one tax period is involved and any tax period exceeds the $25,000 threshold, a formal written protest for all periods involved must be filed.
The total amount includes the proposed increase or decrease in tax and penalties or claimed refund.
To make a small case request, the instructions in the letter of proposed tax adjustment provide that the taxpayer should send a brief written statement requesting an appeals conference and indicate the changes with which it does not agree with and the reasons it does not agree with them.
Be sure to send the protest within the time limit specified in the letter you received, which is generally 30 days.
Filing a Formal Protest
When a formal protest is required, it should be sent within the time limit specified in the letter. The following should be provided in the protest:
• Taxpayer’s name and address, and a daytime telephone number.
• A statement that taxpayer wants to appeal the IRS findings to the Appeals Office.
• A copy of the letter proposed tax adjustment.
• The tax periods or years involved.
• A list of the changes that the taxpayer does not agree with, and reason for disagreement.
• The facts supporting the taxpayer’s position on any issue that it does not agree with.
• The law or authority, if any, on which the taxpayer is relying.
• The taxpayer must sign the written protest, stating that it is true, under the penalties of perjury as follows:
• “Under the penalties of perjury, I declare that I examined the facts stated in this protest, including any accompanying documents, and, to the best of my knowledge and belief, they are true, correct, and complete.”
If the taxpayer’s representative prepares and signs the protest for the taxpayer, he or she must substitute a declaration stating:
• That he or she submitted the protest and accompanying documents and;
• Whether he or she knows personally that the facts stated in the protest and accompanying documents are true and correct.
