We are often called by taxpayers in panic to tell us that the IRS is after their company for back payroll ( 941 ) taxes. IRS is wanting to seize everything including the cats and the dogs. There are several good tips to keep in mind when IRS comes knocking.
Being a former IRS Agent and Instructor know that IRS will usually come on very strong at the beginning of their contact with the taxpayer.
Tax Tips for IRS Payroll Taxes and Issues:
1. Since the IRS usually comes on very strong at the being of their contact with the taxpayer, let them vent their anger and accept it. They want to know you understand the problem and that you want to do something about it. Sporting an attitude will get you nowhere.
Often when I worked these cases as a former IRS agent, I always wanted to see the attitude of the taxpayer. If the taxpayers was apologetic I felt I could move forward in working with them.
2. Remember, your attitude is critical. Also you want to show a willingness to correct the situation.
3. Get current with your tax deposits as soon as you can. IRS looks to see if you are current with your current monthly tax deposits requirements. If possible make a current tax deposit to let IRS see that you are willing to solve the problems.
If you cannot keep current how can you possibly move forward. If you stay current IRS will usually work with you.
4. Get prepared to give the IRS a current financial statement.( 433B ). IRS will look over all your income and assets. Use distrait values on your assets. More about this on other Ezine articles.
5. Be prepared to give IRS a good faith payment to show you want to move forward. This good faith payment goes a long way.
6. Give the information the IRS asks for on a timely basis. Never delay in getting the IRS information. Many times their supervisors grade them on their dependability in case closures and timeliness on follow up action and dates. Keep up with all deadline dates.
7. Be prepared for the IRS to set up a trust fund recovery penalty against all responsible officers. See section 6672.
8. If you have a sizable IRS payroll tax problem, hire a professional tax firm especially one that has Former IRS Agents, Managers and Instructors on staff. They usually know the system and get get you through this with the least amount of problems and usually get the agreement you want.
9. Always know if you do not like the agreement the IRS Agent wants to make, you can ask for an independent reviewer to look over the case file. They can over ride the Agents decision.
The initial IRS Agent will not tell you about this but use that as your ace in the hole.
10. As a last option you can always file a 911 Form asking for assistance from The Taxpayer Advocate Office. They have the power to over turn the Agents decision.
As I said before, for your very best deal and settlement options, hire a true tax professional, they can get results.
