Affordable Fresh Start Tax LLC A Local South Florida Professional Tax Firm Since 1982
“A” Plus Rated by the Better Business Bureau Practicing IRS Tax Debt Settlement since 1982 in South Florida
We are one of South Florida’s oldest, most trusted and experienced tax firms. We have over 140 years of professional tax experience.
Former IRS teaching instructors will handle, manage and settle your IRS tax case.
We have worked at the South Florida IRS offices for over 60 years and have taught the IRS Tax Debt Settlement Program at the IRS. We know all the required tax strategies to settle your tax case.
How we work your case to immediately resolve your IRS problem and get you immediate and permanent tax relief:
1. We immediately send a power of attorney ( POA ) to the IRS letting them know we are now your tax representative. You will never speak to the IRS. We handle everything.
2. We will make sure your tax returns are filed and current. If your tax returns are not up to date, IRS will refuse to work your case. This is leverage that the IRS uses to get you compliant. Lost tax records, no problem. We can pull tax transcripts, file and prepare your tax returns within days.
3. 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. IRS will require a closing settlement method for each case.
IRS Settlement Agreements/ Tax Debt Programs 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 IRS uses to find you the lowest possible amount required.
c. Offer in Compromise /IRS Settlements / Tax Debt Settlement Programs. 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.
