How to get an IRS tax levy removed
There is a very specific process to get in IRS tax levy released.
The Internal Revenue Service will require a current financial statement. That form is a 433-F. You can find that form on our website.
IRS will expect an accurate, correct and honest financial statement.
To ensure that takes place, the Internal Revenue Service will want the 433-F financial statement completely documented along with a copy of your last current pay stubs, bank statements, and copies of all your current expenses.
IRS will conduct a reasonable standards test to make sure you are living within your means.
IRS also has geographical standards to make sure you are living within the national and regional standards of your surrounding area.
After IRS completely reviews your financial statement and applies the national standard tests they will place you in one of three categories.
IRS will either determine that you are an:
- economic tax hardship at the current time and place you into a currently not collectible file,
- they will ask you to set up an installment or a payment plan,
- or advise you that your a tax settlement candidate.
What is a IRS Levy
A levy is a legal seizure of your property to satisfy a tax debt.
Tax Levies are much different from liens.
A lien is a claim used as security for the tax debt, while a levy actually takes the property to satisfy the tax debt.
If you do not pay your taxes or make arrangements to settle your debt, the IRS may seize and sell any type of real or personal property that you own or have an interest in.
IRS could seize and sell property that you hold such as your car, boat, or house, or
IRS could levy property that is yours but is held by someone else such as your wages, retirement accounts, dividends, bank accounts, licenses, rental income, accounts receivables, the cash loan value of your life insurance, or commissions.
Three levy requirements need to be met:
1. IRS assessed the tax and sent you a Notice and Demand for Payment;
2. You neglected or refused to pay the tax; and
3. IRS sent you a Final Notice of Intent to Levy and Notice of Your Right to A Hearing (levy notice) at least 30 days before the 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.
If IRS issues you a Levy Release
A levy release does not mean you are exempt from paying the balance. The IRS will work with you to establish payment plans or take other steps to help you pay off the balance.
Wage Levies
Employers generally have at least one full pay period after receiving a Form 668-W, Notice of Levy on Wages, Salary and Other Income before they are required to send any funds from their employee’s wages.
Employers should encourage employees that have a levy placed on their wages to contact the IRS as soon as possible to discuss a release of levy and resolution of their tax liability.
You may Appeal a IRS Decision
You may ask an IRS manager to review your case, or you may request a Collection Due Process hearing with the Office of Appeals by filing a request for a Collection Due Process hearing with the IRS office listed on your notice.
You must file your request within 30 days of the date on your notice.
Some of the tax issues you may discuss include:
- You paid all you owed before we sent the levy notice,
- IRS assessed the tax and sent the levy notice when you were in bankruptcy, and subject to the automatic stay during bankruptcy,
- IRS made a procedural error in an assessment,
- The time to collect the tax (called the statute of limitations) expired before we sent the levy notice,
- You did not have an opportunity to dispute the assessed liability,
- You wish to discuss the collection options, or
- You wish to make a spousal defense.
