Options for Settling IRS Tax Debt
There are different ways to settle IRS tax debt and there are generally three programs that the taxpayer can qualify for.
The first is a hardship or currently non-collectible program.
There is good news and bad news about this program. After IRS takes a current documented financial statement, IRS may determine you are not collectible at the current time. IRS will suspend your case for a period of 1 to 3 years and put a freeze on it.
The good news is IRS’s off your back for a couple of years and the bad news is penalties and interest still run on it. Taxpayer should also be aware that the case will come out every couple of years to be reviewed.
The second program is the installment agreement or monthly payment.
After IRS takes a current financial statement they will determine how much money they expect from you on a monthly basis. IRS has certain national standards test that they use to determine if the taxpayer will be placed into a payment agreement. You can find the national standards on our site.
The third way to sell your debt is to qualify for an offer in compromise, this is where you can settle your debt for pennies on the dollar. it’s important for taxpayers to understand that not all are eligible for the offer in compromise program.
There is a pre-qualifier tool. I suggest everyone who wants to go the route was the direction of the offer make sure they are truly qualified before wasting time and money.

You can probably expect the filing of a federal tax lien, the possibility of wage or bank levy garnishments and maybe a knock on your door asking for a financial statement in the threat of virus seizing assets.
A simple call to the IRS giving them the information they need will stop IRS.
By giving us a simple power of attorney and retaining us, we can stop the IRS and work out an agreement that you can live with and in the meantime file your returns to keep IRS happy.

The state of Florida sales tax is concentrating on these industries and seems to be spending a lot of time in the Miami/Broward County area.
What sales tax is currently doing is taking gross revenues and saying that 85% is taxable and adding penalties and interest without looking at any records or real numbers.
If this happens to you contact us today as we are what are your best source for state of Florida sales tax defense.
The state of Florida sales tax is doing this to streamline their processes and hoping that some people would bite to scared to answer the Department of revenue sales tax division.
Do not be scared of the state of Florida sales tax audit contact former agents who know the system.
Also a big no-no, if you have received a self audit notice from the state of Florida Department of revenue do not send that in it is a trap.
What to Expect from a Florida Tax Audit
The Florida Department of Revenue audits businesses to find out whether state taxes were collected, reported, and paid correctly.
Although an audit is an enforcement tool to monitor and evaluate tax compliance, it can also be educational and promote voluntary compliance.
During an audit, the Department can help businesses identify and correct bookkeeping problems that could cause additional tax liabilities.
Audits may not always result in an assessment of additional tax, penalty or interest. The auditor may adjust a credit carryover or correct distribution without assessing additional tax. The auditor may even determine that a refund is due.
How/Why Was I Selected for an Audit?
The methods of audit selection vary by tax. Some examples of sources used for audit selection are:
• Internal Revenue Service (IRS) information
• Information sharing programs with other states and state agencies
• Computer-based random selection
• Analysis of Florida tax return information
When notified of the Department’s intent to audit, you will be informed as to what records you will need to provide.
The types of records needed may include, but are not limited to:
• General ledgers and journals
• Cash receipt and disbursement journals
• Purchase and sales journals
• Sales tax exemption or resale certificates
• Florida tax returns
• Federal tax returns
• Depreciation schedules
• Property records
• Other documentation to verify amounts entered on tax returns
You must keep your records for three years for auditing purposes.
The Department may also audit for periods longer than three years if you did not file a return or payment, or filed a return or payment that was substantially incorrect.
After the audit is complete, you may review the audit findings and proposed changes. The auditor will give you a copy of the work papers and explain your rights, including deadlines for filing protests.
If you agree with the audit findings, you are expected to pay the amount due in full, if any. You have the right to protest the proposed changes if you disagree with them.
Throughout the audit process, communication is vital.
After the Notice of Intent to Audit Books and Records is issued, the auditor will work with you to set a date to begin the audit. The auditor will give you deadlines for providing information or documentation.
If you need additional time to prepare, or need to request a delay for other reasons, contact the auditor. The auditor will make every effort to accommodate your requests.
If you fail to respond or provide the requested information, the Department may issue an assessment and file a warrant based on the best available information.
