What has happened.
The Internal Revenue Service reiterated its warning that taxpayers may not be able to renew a current passport or obtain a new passport if they owe federal taxes. To avoid delays in travel plans, taxpayers need to take prompt action to resolve their tax issues.
In January of last year, the IRS began implementing new procedures affecting individuals with “seriously delinquent tax debts.” These new procedures implement provisions of the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act.
The law requires the IRS to notify the State Department of taxpayers the IRS has certified as owing a seriously delinquent tax debt, which is $52,000 or more. The law also requires State to deny their passport application or renewal. If a taxpayer currently has a valid passport, the State Department may revoke the passport or limit ability to travel outside the United States.
When the IRS certifies a taxpayer to the State Department as owing a seriously delinquent tax debt, they receive a Notice CP508C from the IRS.
When a taxpayer no longer has a seriously delinquent tax debt, because they paid it in full or made another payment arrangement, the IRS will reverse the taxpayer’s certification within thirty days.
State will then remove the certification from the taxpayer’s record, so their passport won’t be at risk under this program. The IRS can expedite the decertification notice to the State Department for a taxpayer who resolves their debt, has a pending passport application and has imminent travel plans or lives abroad with an urgent need for a passport.
A taxpayer with a seriously delinquent tax debt is generally someone who owes the IRS more than $52,000 in back taxes, penalties and interest for which the IRS has filed a Notice of Federal Tax Lien and the period to challenge it has expired or the IRS has issued a levy.
Before denying a passport renewal or new passport application, the State Department will hold the taxpayer’s application for 90 days to allow them to:
• Resolve any erroneous certification issues,
• Make full payment of the tax debt, or
• Enter a satisfactory payment arrangement with the IRS.
Ways to Resolve Tax Issues
There are several ways taxpayers can avoid having the IRS notify the State Department of their seriously delinquent tax debt.
They include the following:
• Paying the tax debt in full,
• Paying the tax debt timely under an approved installment agreement,
• Paying the tax debt timely under an accepted offer in compromise,
• Paying the tax debt timely under the terms of a settlement agreement with the Department of Justice,
• Having requested or have a pending collection due process appeal with a levy, or
• Having collection suspended because a taxpayer has made an innocent spouse election or requested innocent spouse relief.
Relief programs for unpaid taxes
Frequently, taxpayers qualify for one of several relief programs including the following:
• Payment agreement.
Taxpayers can ask for a payment plan with the IRS by filing Form 9465. Taxpayers can download this form from IRS.gov and mail it along with a tax return, bill or notice. Some taxpayers can use the online payment agreement to set up a monthly payment agreement.
• Offer in compromise.
Some taxpayers may qualify for an offer in compromise, an agreement between a taxpayer and the IRS that settles the tax liability for less than the full amount owed. The IRS looks at the taxpayer’s income and assets to decide the taxpayer’s ability to pay. Taxpayers can use the Offer in Compromise Pre-Qualifier tool to help them decide whether they’re eligible for an offer in compromise.
Subject to change, the IRS also will not certify a taxpayer as owing a seriously delinquent tax debt or will reverse the certification for a taxpayer:
• Who is in bankruptcy,
• Who is deceased,
• Who is identified by the IRS as a victim of tax-related identity theft,
• Whose account the IRS has determined is currently not collectible due to hardship,
• Who is located within a federally declared disaster area,
• Who has a request pending with the IRS for an installment agreement,
• Who has a pending offer in compromise with the IRS, or
• Who has an IRS accepted adjustment that will satisfy the debt in full.
For taxpayers serving in a combat zone who owe a seriously delinquent tax debt, the IRS postpones notifying the State Department of the delinquency and the taxpayer’s passport is not subject to denial during the time of service in a combat zone.

• Notice of federal tax lien has been filed and all administrative remedies under IRC § 6320 have lapsed or been exhausted or
• Levy has been issued
Seriously delinquent tax debt is limited to liabilities incurred under Title 26 of the United States Code and does not include debts collected by the IRS such as the FBAR Penalty and Child Support.
Some tax debt is not included in determining seriously delinquent tax debt even if it meets the above criteria.
It includes tax debt:
• Being paid timely with an IRS-approved installment agreement
• Being paid timely with an offer in compromise accepted by the IRS, or a settlement agreement entered with the Justice Department
• For which a collection due process hearing is timely requested regarding a levy to collect the debt
• For which collection has been suspended because a request for innocent spouse relief under IRC § 6015 has been made
Additionally, a passport won’t be at risk under this program for any taxpayer:
• Who is in bankruptcy
• Who is identified by the IRS as a victim of tax-related identity theft
• Whose account the IRS has determined is currently not collectible due to hardship
• Who is located within a federally declared disaster area
• Who has a request pending with the IRS for an installment agreement
• Who has a pending offer in compromise with the IRS
• Who has an IRS accepted adjustment that will satisfy the debt in full

Before denying a passport, the State Department will hold your application for 90 days to allow you to:
• Resolve any erroneous certification issues
• Make full payment of the tax debt
• Enter a satisfactory payment arrangement with the IRS
Annual Adjustment for Inflation
The $52,000 threshold is indexed yearly for inflation
Under new Code Section 7345(f),
in the case of a calendar year beginning after 2016, the dollar amount in new Code Section 7345 shall be increased by an amount equal to (1) such dollar amount, multiplied by (2) the cost-of-living adjustment determined under Code Section 1(f)(3) for the calendar year, determined by substituting “calendar year 2015” for “calendar year 2016” in Code Section 1(f)(3)(B). If any amount as adjusted under the preceding sentence is not a multiple of $1,000, such amount shall be rounded to the nearest multiple of $1,000.
Taxpayer Notification – Notice CP 508C
The IRS is required to notify you in writing at the time the IRS certifies seriously delinquent tax debt to the State Department. The IRS is also required to notify you in writing at the time it reverses certification. The IRS will send written notice by regular mail to your last known address.
Note: Your Power of attorney (POA) will not receive a copy of your CP508C.
Reversal of Certification – Notice CP 508R
The IRS will reverse a certification when:
• The tax debt is fully satisfied or becomes legally unenforceable.
• The tax debt is no longer seriously delinquent.
• The certification is erroneous.
The IRS will make this reversal within 30 days and provide notification to the State Department as soon as practicable.
A previously certified debt is no longer seriously delinquent when:
• You and the IRS enter into an installment agreement allowing you to pay the debt over time.
• The IRS accepts an offer in compromise to satisfy the debt.
• The Justice Department enters into a settlement agreement to satisfy the debt.
• Collection is suspended because you request innocent spouse relief under IRC § 6015.
• You make a timely request for a collection due process hearing regarding a levy to collect the debt.
The IRS will not reverse certification where a taxpayer requests a collection due process hearing or innocent spouse relief on a debt that is not the basis of the certification.
Also, the IRS will not reverse the certification because the taxpayer pays the debt below $50,000.
Intent to ask the State Department to Revoke a Passport – Letter 6152
The IRS will consider asking the Department of State to revoke a passport
• To protect the integrity of the legislation (e.g., such as when a taxpayer obtains a decertification based on a promise to pay and fails to act as agreed).
• If revocation is needed to encourage payment of the tax by incentivizing taxpayers with offshore activities or interests to resolve their liabilities.
• In other instances where the facts and circumstances indicate that revocation would facilitate payment of tax.
Before the IRS sends a revocation referral to the Department of State, IRS will issue Letter 6152 asking the taxpayer to call within 30 days to resolve their account to prevent this action.
Judicial Review of Certification
The State Department is held harmless in these matters and cannot be sued for any erroneous notification or failed decertification under IRC § 7345.
If the IRS certified your debt to the State Department, you can file suit in the U.S. Tax Court or a U.S. District Court to have the court determine whether the certification is erroneous or the IRS failed to reverse the certification when it was required to do so. If the court determines the certification is erroneous or should be reversed, it can order the IRS to notify the State Department that the certification was in error.
IRC § 7345 does not provide the court authority to release a lien or levy or award money damages in a suit to determine whether a certification is erroneous. You are not required to file an administrative claim or otherwise contact the IRS to resolve the erroneous certification issue before filing suit in the U.S. Tax Court or a U.S. District Court.
Payment of Taxes
If you can’t pay the full amount you owe, you can make alternative payment arrangements such as an installment agreement or an offer in compromise to have your certification reversed.
If you disagree with the tax amount or the certification was made in error, you should contact the phone number listed on Notice CP 508C: 1-855-519-4965 (International callers: 1-267-941-1004). If you’ve already paid the tax debt, please send proof of that payment to the address on the Notice CP 508C.
If you recently filed your tax return for the current year and expect a refund, the IRS will apply the refund to the debt and if the refund is sufficient to satisfy your seriously delinquent tax debt, the account is considered fully paid.
Passport Status
If your U.S. passport application is denied or your U.S. passport is revoked, the State Department will notify you in writing.
If you need your U.S. passport to keep your job, once your seriously delinquent tax debt is certified, you must fully pay the balance, or make an alternative payment arrangement to have your certification reversed.
Once you’ve resolved your tax problem with the IRS, the IRS will reverse the certification within 30 days of resolution of the issue and provide notification to the State Department as soon as practicable.
Travel
If you’re leaving in a few days for international travel, need to resolve passport issues and have a pending application for a U.S. passport, you should call the phone number listed on Notice CP 508C – If you already have a U.S. passport, you can use your passport until you’re notified by the State Department that it has been revoked.
If your passport is cancelled or revoked, after you’re certified, you must resolve the tax debt by paying the debt in full, making alternative payment arrangements or showing that the certification is erroneous.

How to Stop a IRS Bank Tax Levy or a IRS Wage Garnishment Levy
It is important to know where your cases in the system to begin the stop the IRS tax levy.
There is a difference between a bank levy in a wage levy garnishment.
Both are seizures, a bank levy is a freeze on your bank account for 21 days where as a wage levy is an immediate seizure on your wage.
There is also a difference between an IRS levy and a tax lien. A tax levy is a seizure and the tax lien is placed in the County of your residence to put the public on notice you owe back tax debt to the Internal Revenue Service.
IRS files 1.8 million tax levies every year and files over 600,000 federal tax liens.
Some taxpayers were sent a IRS letter 11 indicating that a tax levy was the next step, while others have been sent a IRS tax levy from the ACS unit out of various IRS offices, while others have been sent tax levies by revenue officers in the local offices.
If you have received IRS letter 11 there is a collection due process hearing that can stop the IRS levy.
If your case is in the ACS unit or the local office we can simply send over a power of attorney and start negotiation power to go ahead to get an immediate levy release and settle your IRS case at the same time.
IRS Final Notices before IRS Tax Levy or Garnishment
Where does Internal Revenue Service (IRS) authority to levy originate?
The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) authorizes levies to collect delinquent tax.
See IRC 6331. Any property or right to property that belongs to the taxpayer or on which there is a Federal tax lien can be levied, unless the IRC exempts the property from levy.
What actions must the Internal Revenue Service take before a levy can be issued?
The IRS will usually levy only after these three requirements are met:
1. The IRS assessed the tax and sent you a Notice and Demand for Payment (a tax bill);
2. You neglected or refused to pay the tax; and
3. The IRS sent you a Final Notice of Intent to Levy
The 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.
Please note: if the IRS levies your state tax refund, you may receive a Notice of Levy on Your State Tax Refund, Notice of Your Right to Hearing after the levy.
IRS Billing Notices for IRS Tax Levies & IRS Wage Garnishments
The IRS will send out final notices before levies and seizures after they generally send out a series of five billing notices. The IRS billing cycles are generally five weeks apart.
On the fourth notice, taxpayers will receive their final notice in which they can go ahead and file with the appeals division of Internal Revenue Service to stop the levy.
Not only can we go ahead and stop the IRS notice of intent to levy, we can settle your case at the same time.
All your tax returns are going to have to be filed and if that is an issue for you, with or without tax records we can prepare your tax returns.
How IRS May Settle Tax Debt?
As a general rule, the Internal Revenue Service will take your current financial statement and after they reviewed your documented financial statement there is generally two ways IRS closes cases.
They generally closes your back taxes case by taxpayers putting you into a:
1. currently not collectible statuses or,
2. ask for a monthly payment agreement.
