If you have received a IRS Notice of Intent to Levy or certified mail you have 30 days to respond to that IRS letter. If you do not respond the IRS will send out notices of levies to your bank and to your employer. With one call from our firm we can immediate STOP THE IRS. You will never have to speak to the IRS.
We have been practicing our faith at work and in our work place since 1982. We are practicing Christians both in our workplace in our the churches that we serve.
We are compromised of Board Certified Tax Attorneys, CPAs and former IRS Agents, Managers and Instructors who worked at the IRS for over 60 years.
How we immediately get Notices of Wage Levy and Bank Garnishment Levies Released.
As former IRS Agents, Managers and Instructors we have issued thousands of IRS Wage/Garnishment and Bank Levies. We know exactly how to quickly get them released. We have what it takes.
1. We immediately send a power of attorney to the IRS letting them know we are now your representative. You will never have to speak to them.
2. We will make sure all your tax returns are filed and current. If your tax returns are not up to date, the IRS will refuse to work your case. This is leverage that they use to get you compliant. We can pull tax transcripts, file and prepare your tax returns within days, even if you have lost your tax records.
3. The IRS requires a current financial statement. We will secure a required 433-F (IRS financial statement), verify the income and expenses and work out a settlement agreement. The IRS will require a closing settlement method for each case.
4. We review with our clients how they want to settle their case. We get them an agreement based on their current financial needs.
Settlement agreements can be in different forms:
a. Hardship Settlements. Cases usually go into a 3 year suspended status because of an inability to pay. This is also called currently noncollectable. Your case will go into a hardship status because you do not have the income coming in to meet your current expenses. The IRS will use the National Standards Program to assess hardship.
b. Payment Agreements. Cases can be closed with agreed upon monthly installment payments to the IRS. We will review the different programs the IRS uses for the lowest possible amount required.
javascript:;
c. Offer in Compromise. There are three types of OICs:
The IRS may accept an Offer in Compromise based on three grounds:
1. Doubt as to Collectibility – Doubt exists that the taxpayer could ever pay the full amount of tax liability owed within the remainder of the statutory period for collection.
2. Doubt as to Liability – A legitimate doubt exists that the assessed tax liability is correct. Possible reasons to submit a doubt as to liability offer include:
(1) the examiner made a mistake interpreting the law,
(2) the examiner failed to consider the taxpayer’s evidence or
(3) the taxpayer has new evidence.
3. Effective Tax Administration – There is no doubt that the tax is correct and there is potential to collect the full amount of the tax owed, but an exceptional circumstance exists that would allow the IRS to consider an OIC. To be eligible for compromise on this basis, a taxpayer must demonstrate that the collection of the tax would create an economic hardship or would be unfair and inequitable.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE FILING YOUR OFFER IN COMPROMISE:
|
All Taxpayers Do Not Qualify for an Offer in Compromise
Absent special circumstances, if you have the ability to fully pay your tax liability in a lump sum or via an installment agreement, an offer in compromise will not be accepted.
Offer in Compromise Payments are Non-refundable
The IRS considers the 20 percent payment for a lump sum offer and any periodic payments as “payments on tax” and are not refundable, regardless of whether the offer is declared not-processable or is later returned, withdrawn, rejected or terminated by the IRS.
Federal Tax Liens are Not Released
If there is a Notice of Federal Tax Lien on record prior to acceptance of the offer, the lien is not released until the OIC terms are satisfied or until the liability is paid, whichever comes first. A Notice of Federal Tax Lien may be filed during the course of the OIC investigation.
Payments May be Designated
You may designate in writing how the IRS should apply payments made with the filing of the offer and while an offer is under investigation. Without a written designation, payments will be applied to the tax liability and in the government’s best interest. The $150 application fee cannot be designated, but is applied to the tax liability and in the government’s best interest.
Refunds
The IRS will keep any refund, including interest due, because of an overpayment of any tax or other liability, for tax periods extending through the calendar year the IRS accepts the OIC.
Exception: Offers submitted under the basis of doubt as to liability.
Levies
The IRS will keep all payments and credits made, received or applied to the total original tax liability before the OIC was submitted. The IRS may also keep any proceeds from a levy that was served prior to the submission of an OIC, but which were not received at the time the OIC was submitted.
Statutory Period for Collection Suspended
The statutory period for collection is suspended during the period that the OIC is under consideration (pending) and is further suspended if the OIC is rejected by the IRS and you appeal the rejection.
Five Year Compliance
If your offer is accepted, you must timely file all tax returns and timely pay all tax for five years or until the offered amount is paid in full, whichever period is longer. Failure to adhere to these terms will result in default of the offer and the IRS may then collect the amounts originally owed plus penalties and interest.
OIC Payment and Application Fee Exceptions
If you qualify for a low-income exception waiver or you submit a doubt as to liability offer you are exempt from the $150 application fee and any OIC payments due upon submission of the OIC or during the course of the investigation. The low income waiver does not apply to businesses.
Appeal
If your OIC is rejected, you will have the opportunity to file an appeal which will be heard by the IRS Office of Appeals. There are no appeal rights associated with offers that are returned, withdrawn or terminated.
Approved Installment Agreement
If you have an approved installment agreement and submit a periodic payment offer, you are not required to continue to make the installment agreement payments while the offer is being investigated. You will, however, be required to make the OIC periodic payments as they become due.
Mandatory Acceptance
Per IRC 7122(f), the IRS will deem an offer “accepted” if it is not withdrawn, returned or rejected within 24 months of the IRS receipt date. If a liability included in the offer amount is disputed in any judicial proceeding, that time period is omitted from calculating the 24-month time frame.
Public Inspection Files
The law requires the IRS to make certain information from accepted Offers in Compromise available for public inspection and review. These public inspection file locations are located in designated IRS Area Offices.

Offer in Compromise – Ft.Lauderdale, Miami, West Palm – Former IRS Agents – Debt Settlement Relief – Since 1982 954-492-0088
FRESH START TAX L.L.C. A PROFESSIONAL TAX FIRM “A” Plus RATED BY THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU SINCE 1982
We taught the IRS Tax Debt Settlement Program at the IRS called the Offer in Compromise. We know all the settlement formulas. We worked out the local South Florida IRS offices.
Offers in Compromise have become the “in thing ” the way out of your IRS Debt. Because of all the television commercials, most taxpayers feel they qualify for an Offer in Compromise. Not so fast!
Call us to hear the truth.
Being a former IRS Agent and a teaching instructor with the IRS caution should be used before filing an offer in compromise. A true IRS expert should evaluate your case to see whether you are a good offer candidate.
Most companies have professional salesmen that hustle taxpayers through OIC promising them the moon. They will tell them anything to earn a sales commission.
It would be prudent for anyone seeking an offer in compromise to hire a professional tax firm with a “A” rating with the BBB and former IRS Agents who know everything about the program, oh by the way, that is us!
This is correspondence that came out of the IRS National Office:
“The Internal Revenue Service today issued a consumer alert advising taxpayers to beware of promoters’ claims that tax debts can be settled for “pennies on the dollar” through the Offer in Compromise Program.
Some promoters are inappropriately advising indebted taxpayers to file an Offer in Compromise (OIC) application with the IRS. This bad advice costs taxpayers money and time. An Offer In Compromise is an agreement between a taxpayer and the IRS that resolves the taxpayer’s tax debt. The IRS has the authority to settle, or “compromise,” federal tax liabilities by accepting less than full payment under certain circumstances.
“This program serves an important purpose for a select group of taxpayers. But we are increasingly concerned about unscrupulous promoters charging excessive fees to taxpayers who have no chance of meeting the program’s requirements,” said IRS Commissioner Mark W. Everson. “We urge taxpayers not to be duped by high-priced promises.”
The OIC may be considered only after other payment options have been exhausted. If taxpayers are unable to pay their taxes in full, there are other payment options, such as monthly installment agreements, that must be explored before an OIC can be submitted.
The IRS.gov Web site contains complete information on the collection process and payment options. Publication 594, The IRS Collection Process, also provides helpful information on the options available to taxpayers.
Taxpayers also should review Form 656, Offer In Compromise, or Form 9465, Installment Agreement Request, to determine if they qualify for either payment program. Form 656 provides detailed instructions for submitting an offer and includes all of the necessary financial forms.
