IRS Tax Records-How to keep and manage-Fresh Start Tax LLC

by steve | Apr 25, 2011 | IRS Tax Advice, Tax News

Tips for Managing Your Tax Records

After you file your taxes, you will have many records that may help document items on your tax return. You will need these documents should the IRS select your return for examination. Here are five tips from the IRS about keeping good records.

Normally, tax records should be kept for three years.

Some documents — such as records relating to a home purchase or sale, stock transactions, IRA and business or rental property — should be kept longer.

In most cases, the IRS does not require you to keep records in any special manner. Generally speaking, however, you should keep any and all documents that may have an impact on your federal tax return.

Records you should keep include bills, credit card and other receipts, invoices, mileage logs, canceled, imaged or substitute checks, proofs of payment, and any other records to support deductions or credits you claim on your return.

For more information on what kinds of records to keep, see IRS Publication 552, Record keeping for Individuals, which is available on the IRS website at http://www.irs.gov or by calling 800-TAX-FORM (800-829-3676).

We can get immediate and permanent tax relief of IRS Bank and Wage Garnishments.

We are former IRS Agents, Managers and Instructors who worked at the local IRS South Florida offices.

We know all the IRS tax strategies to get the job taken care of immediately.

We have released thousands of wage and bank levies since 1982. Being former IRS Agents we know all the shortcuts to get immediate tax help.

There is no firm that is more experienced and trusted than Fresh Start Tax LLC

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.

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.
