Bank and Wage Levies
It should be noted that if IRS levies a bank account there is a 21 day hold on that money. IRS affords the taxpayer three weeks to go ahead contact the IRS and get the levy released.
There is a different situation on a wage garnishment.
For wage garnishments, those are immediate seizures on the very next paycheck and are continuous and will not stop until the case is resolved.
Is it a best interest of the taxpayer /client to immediately contact the Internal Revenue Service to get both levies released.
IRS will require a current financial statement along with complete documentation before any IRS tax levy is released.
You can find that form on our website. It is a form 433-F. You will have to provide all relative information such as your pay stub, your expenses, along with bank statements and proof of current living expenses.
After IRS carefully reviews your financial statement IRS will make a determination and a recommendation to you on how they are to resolve your case.

Here is where the IRS got their information to send out their tax levy on your account.
If the Internal Revenue Service has sent out a tax levy on your account you will find that most of the information they get to seize and/or garnish assets that belong to taxpayers are information that is provided by taxpayers on their tax returns.
With the modern age of technology if the cases are large enough IRS will use external sources as well. Information such as LEXIS-NEXIS, the Accuriant search engine, and Google will be used to find information about taxpayers, their whereabouts, their assets and also their places of employment.
Most common sources of IRS Tax Levies
Insurance company levies for interest and dividends. Generally, this is due to interest or dividends paid on insurance policies with cash value. Delete these sources.
Dividends/distributive income. These require special processing better suited to revenue officers and are not done in ACS.
Bureau of Public Debt. These income sources are treasury bills and registered securities. Delete this source.
Foreign governments, U.N. employees, or companies/banks with addresses outside U.S. — It does not matter where the taxpayer resides, but where the levy source is located.
Federal Contractor File (FCF).Identified on ACS for information only (INFO). However, these may be valuable as a locator source.
Railroad unemployment or Railroad retirement income.
Pensions and IRAs – Individual Retirement Accounts. No function will be given the authority to levy on lump sum pension/IRAs at the request of the taxpayer.
It will only be allowed in “flagrant” situations. See IRM 5.11.6.2.
State Lotteries.
State of Alaska, Permanent Fund Dividend (PFD) – The PFD is income to the taxpayer, but is only levied through the Alaska Permanent Fund Dividend Levy Program (AKFPD).
Also IRS will never send levies to another country’s embassies, consulates, or missions, even if they are within U.S. borders.

Why the IRS will send a Bank Levy
If you do not respond to final notice 1058 letter sent out by the Internal Revenue Service, the IRS will send out a bank levy to any known sources or financial institution and where you have funds.
IRS gets the bank levy information from your tax return. IRS looks and examines any W-2s or 1099s that you have received from banks, financial institutions or other parties and uses those as levy resources.
A bank levy is much different than a wage garnishment levy.
A bank levy is a one-time seizure by the Internal Revenue Service.
It freezes the money the day the levy is received by the bank. By law, the bank is required to freeze that money for 21 days. It gives the taxpayer a three-week window to contact the IRS and actually get the bank levy released.
You can still use and operate your bank account during this period of time.
Only those funds frozen on the day the bank received the levy are held for the Internal Revenue Service. If you were to make a deposit the day after the bank received the IRS levy those funds still belong to you.
How to get your bank levy released
IRS in all reality IRS wants to take your name off their enforcement computer close your case. Yes, one less case off the books.
Before IRS closes a case off the enforcement computer it needs to have a closing method.
IRS uses therefore 433F, the IRS version of the financial statement to go ahead and make a determination on the closing method and remove the IRS Bank Levy
IRS will carefully review your 433F financial statement along with bank statements, pay stubs and copies of all expenses and analyze them against the national, regional and geographical standards to make sure you are living within the budget that IRS allows. You can find those national standards on our site.
After the review of the 433F, the IRS agent will explain to you one of three closing methods they will propose to close your case and release or end your bank levy.
As a general rule, your case will be closed due to an economic tax hardship, an installment payment or the suggesting of the filing of an offer in compromise.
You should contact us for more details on these three specific methods of closures.
This section contains information on enforcement, issuing Notices of Levy and requesting a Federal Tax Lien filing in the Automated Collection System (ACS).
The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) 6331 authorizes levies to collect delinquent tax.
Unless specifically exempt, any taxpayer property or rights to property can be levied. However, the IRS may generally only levy when the following requirements are met:
1. The IRS assessed the tax and sent the taxpayer a notice and demand for payment;
2. The taxpayer has neglected or refused to pay the tax within 10 days after notice and demand;
3. The IRS sent the taxpayer a Final Notice of Intent to Levy and Notice of Your Right to a Hearing at least 30 days before the Levy; and
4. No Collection Due Process (CDP) request is filed in response to the Final Notice of Intent to Levy and Notice of Your Right to a Hearing, or a CDP hearing is conducted sustaining the proposed levy.
IRS may File a Federal Tax Lien
Liens give the IRS a legal claim to a taxpayer’s property as security for the tax debt.
The Federal Tax Lien arises when:
1. the IRS assesses the liability,
2. the IRS sends the taxpayer a Notice and Demand for Payment, and
3. the taxpayer neglects or refused to fully pay the debt within 10 days after notification. When these three requirements are met, the “assessment” lien arises without any further action by the IRS.
IRC 6323 authorizes the filing of a Notice of Federal Tax Lien (NFTL) in the public records. By filing the NFTL, the taxpayer’s creditors are publicly notified that the IRS has a claim against all the taxpayer’s property and to all the taxpayer’s rights to property.
Filing the NFTL generally gives the IRS priority against other creditors and in bankruptcy proceedings.
What Are Levies and Liens
A levy is a seizure by the IRS of the taxpayer’s property to satisfy a tax debt.
A Notice of Levy is used by the Automated Collection System (ACS) to seize a taxpayer’s property, held by a third party, if it can be turned over by writing a check, e.g., a taxpayer’s bank account, wages, commissions, retirement benefits, or money received as a contractor.
A tax lien is a legal claim on an individual’s property for payment or satisfaction of a tax debt. It attaches to all property or rights to property the taxpayer has or acquires, whether real and personal, tangible or intangible.
The NFTL is a document filed in state recording offices to make the tax liability public and protect the IRS’s priority as against other creditors of the taxpayer.
For corporations, a lien may be filed with the Secretary of State, depending on state law.

IRS can only Levy After these requirements are met:
IRS usually can levy only after these three (3) requirements are met:
1. The IRS assessed the tax and sent you a Notice and Demand for Payment; Form 1058
2. You neglected or refused to pay the tax and.
3. The Internal Revenue Service 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.
You also must have received the IRS Tax levy by this method
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.
IRS may also send a Notice of Levy on Your State Tax Refund.
It should be noted that IRS is only required to send any billing notices to your last address filed on the last tax return filed.
What is required to Remove or Release your IRS Tax Levy
Before the Internal Revenue Service will end the IRS tax levy or a wage garnishment they will need a current, accurate, and documented financial statement.
IRS will require form 433-F.
Once completed by the taxpayer or tax professional it is to be sent and verified to the ACS unit of the Internal Revenue Service.
An IRS agent or reviewer will go ahead and review the financial statement to make sure it is accurate and all the information is filled out correctly. They the agent will make a determination on how to both close the case in release the IRS levy or wage garnishment.
Contrary to popular belief the IRS does not want to send the IRS tax levy or the wage garnishment out.
It must do so because taxpayers have failed to comply with the last bills and notices that IRS sent the taxpayer asking them to contact them to resolve the matter.
As a result of the IRS must send the levy out if no contact has been made by the taxpayer. The Internal Revenue Service after analyzing the financial statement will probably close case in one of three ways.
Holding Periods for the IRS Bank Levy
A bank must wait 21 calendar days after a levy is served before sending payment. Then, on the next business day, it must turn over the taxpayer’s money.
The depositor(s) can waive this waiting period. The bank will not send money that is subject to attachment or execution under judicial process.
“Bank” includes credit unions, savings and loan associations, trust companies, and others described in IRC 408(n) and Treas. Reg. §301.6332–3(b).
During the holding period, a levy might be released, or the amount owed could decrease.
If the bank receives no release, it must send the payment after the holding period.
No additional notice is required.
Three closing methods used by the IRS to close your case and end your tax levy
1.IRS may determine that at the current time you cannot afford to pay them and they will place your case into an economic tax hardship.
2.IRS after reviewing the financial statement the IRS may decide you can make a installment or payments based on the national and geographic standards.
3. IRS may determine that you are offer in compromise or a tax debt settlement candidate and prompt you in filing the offer.
The Continuous Effect of Levy on Salary and Wages IRS Form 668-W
Unlike other levies, a levy on a taxpayer’s wages and salary has a continuous effect.
It attaches to future payments, until the levy is released. Wages and salary include fees, bonuses, commissions, and similar items.
All other IRS tax levies only attach to property and rights to property that exist when the levy is served.
There is a very specific system used by the Internal Revenue Service to releasing or removing the tax levy.
