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:
• The IRS assessed the tax and sent you a Notice and Demand for Payment (a tax bill);
• You neglected or refused to pay the tax; and
• The 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.
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.
When will the IRS issue a levy?
If you do not pay your taxes (or make arrangements to settle your debt), and the IRS determines that a levy is the next appropriate action, the IRS may levy any property or right to property you own or have an interest in.
For instance, the 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). Or, the IRS could seize and sell property that you hold (such as your car, boat or house).

Some frequently Asked Questions
What happens if I don’t pay or contact the IRS?
If you don’t pay the amount due, they may seize (“levy”) any state tax refund to which you’re entitled. This is your notice of intent to levy as required by Internal Revenue Code section 6331(d).
If you still have an outstanding balance after they seize (“levy”) your state tax refund, they may send you a notice giving you a right to a hearing before the IRS Office of Appeals, if you have not already received such a notice. The IRS may then seize (“levy”) or take possession of your other property or your rights to property.
Property includes:
Wages, real estate commissions, and other income
Bank accounts
Business assets
Personal assets (including your car and home)
Social Security benefits
If you don’t pay the amount due or call the IRS to make payment arrangements, they can file a Notice of Federal Tax Lien on your property at any time, if they haven’t already done so.
If the lien is in place, you may find it difficult to sell or borrow against your property. The tax lien would also appear on your credit report ― which may harm your credit rating ― and your creditors would also be publicly notified that the IRS has priority to seize your property.
What if I don’t agree or have already taken corrective action?
If you do not agree with this notice, contact the IRS immediately at the number printed at the top of the notice. They will do our best to help you. If you have already paid this liability or arranged to pay it with an installment agreement, you should still call them at the number printed at the top of the notice to make sure your account reflects this.
Remember, you can always Appeal your case.

IRS deals with billions of dollars of tax debt on any given calendar year.
IRS has a very specific system that is used, that is a nationwide and/or worldwide system to deal with IRS tax debt.
HOW IRS WORKS TAX DEBT CASES ON BACK TAXES
When dealing with a taxpayer who owes back taxes, one of the first things IRS does when they work a case is to conduct a full compliance check.
A full compliance check means that the IRS will check on the filing statuses of every year to make sure you are in full compliance and they will request and mandate that all tax returns are on the IRS system before they will close your case off the enforcement computer.
If you have not filed all tax returns we can file all back tax returns and make sure you pay the lowest amount of tax by law. With or without tax records we can reconstruct your tax return because being former IRS agents we know the system. You should also know that if you have not filed for many back years IRS will only require filing of the last six years.
In some cases you can make an IRS payment agreement online if you meet the various requirements that IRS has. When you call our office we will let you know whether you qualify for an installment payment online.
For those of you who do not qualify for an online payment the Internal Revenue Service will require a current financial statement.
As a general rule, those financial statements will be on a form 433F, 433A.
If the cases at the service center the service center will request the F and if it is in the local office they will require the A. The Internal Revenue Service will a current financial statement fully documented along with bank statements, pay stubs, and copies of all expenses.
IRS will look to see if you have any assets that you can liquidate to pay in full and if that cannot be done there are two other options.
The first is the payment agreement and the second, you can be deemed currently not collectible and IRS can put you in a hardship status if you are truly having a financial hardship in your life.
Some taxpayers can qualify for an offer in compromise which they can settle their debt for pennies on a dollar.
Upon calling our office we first try to find out if you can settle your debt to completely extinguish the liability.
The offer in compromise is the very best way to completely take care of your IRS debt. There are very specific formulas to settle your debt and we make sure you are a qualified candidate to settle your IRS debt before taking any money and working your case. C

IRS does not want to seize your business for back taxes due on payroll taxes, however 941 payroll taxes are a big concern for the IRS.
You my ask why payroll tax that is a big concern for IRS, it simply because those are trust fund taxes that is money held in trust and is not an imposition to collect taxes from a company, it’s simply returning to IRS what you have withheld from employees and matched their Social Security.
IRS has a FTD program which is called the federal tax deposit alert which warns local offices of companies that are failing to file federal tax deposits. As a former IRS agent I worked this program.
Just be advised that IRS does keep a task force available on large companies that are making federal tax deposits.
The Process of receiving a Payroll Tax Debt Settlement:
The Internal Revenue Service will want to fully review your company or corporation before you can obtain in IRS payroll tax settlement.
You will need to provide IRS with the current financial statement along with proof that all payroll tax deposits and 941 tax forms have been filed.
Many times IRS will want a personal or individual financial statement for more responsible persons. For most company’s of the IRS payroll tax settlement may come in three forms.
After IRS reviews your current financial statement the Internal Revenue Service may determine that you are a hardship candidate, monthly payment agreement candidate or an offer in compromise candidate and IRS payroll settlement.

Fresh Start Tax knows the next steps the IRS will take;

Other Factors To Consider:
IRS has the right to sell your complete inventory at public auction;

IRS can hold you personally responsible for this tax;
IRS has the right to lock the doors of your business.
Steps to take to work out an affordable payment plan with the Internal Revenue Service:
Immediately stay current on all payroll tax deposits to show the IRS good faith;
Be prepared to give the IRS a current financial statement;
Make sure your personal tax liabilities are filed and paid;
Have all documentation on the financial statement prepared for the IRS.
If you do not pay your Payroll Taxes IRS can collect them from you individually
To encourage prompt payment of withheld income and employment taxes, including social security taxes, railroad retirement taxes, or collected excise taxes, Congress passed a law that provides for the TFRP.( trust fund recovery penalty )
These payroll taxes are called trust fund taxes because you actually hold the employee’s money in trust until you make a federal tax deposit in that amount.
The TFRP may apply to you if these unpaid trust fund taxes cannot be immediately collected from the business.
The business does not have to have stopped operating in order for the TFRP to be assessed
BE CAREFUL, Who can be Responsible for the TFRP???
The TFRP may be assessed against any person who:
Is responsible for collecting or paying withheld income and employment taxes, or for paying collected excise taxes, and
Willfully fails to collect or pay them.
A responsible person is a person or group of people who has the duty to perform and the power to direct the collecting, accounting, and paying of trust fund taxes. This person may be:
An officer or an employee of a corporation,
A member or employee of a partnership,
A corporate director or shareholder,
A member of a board of trustees of a nonprofit organization,
Another person with authority and control over funds to direct their disbursement,
Another corporation or third-party payer,
Payroll Service Providers (PSP) ore responsible parties within a PSP
Professional Employer Organizations (PEO) or responsible parties within a PEO, or
Responsible parties within the common law employer (client of PSP/PEO).
For wilfulness to exist, the responsible person:
Must have been, or should have been, aware of the outstanding taxes and either intentionally disregarded the law or was plainly indifferent to its requirements (no evil intent or bad motive is required).
Using available funds to pay other creditors when the business is unable to pay the employment taxes is an indication of willfulness. You will be asked to complete an interview in order to determine the full scope of your duties and responsibilities.
Responsibility is based on whether an individual exercised independent judgment with respect to the financial affairs of the business.
An employee is not a responsible person if the employee’s function was solely to pay the bills as directed by a superior, rather than to determine which creditors would or would not be paid.
Figuring the Trust Fund Amount
The amount of the penalty is equal to the unpaid balance of the trust fund tax. The penalty is computed based on:
The unpaid income taxes withheld, plus
The employee’s portion of the withheld FICA taxes. For collected taxes, the penalty is based on the unpaid amount of collected excise taxes.
Assessing the TFRP. If the IRS determines that you are a responsible person, we will provide you a letter stating that we plan to assess the TFRP against you. You have 60 days (75 days if this letter is addressed to you outside the United States) from the date of this letter to appeal our proposal.
The letter will explain your appeal rights. Refer to Publication 5, Your Appeal Rights and How to Prepare a Protest if You Don’t Agree (PDF), for a clear outline of the appeals process. If you do not respond to our letter, we will assess the penalty against you and send you a Notice and Demand for Payment.
Once we assert the penalty, the IRS can take collection action against your personal assets. For instance, we can file a federal tax lien or take levy or seizure action.
Call us today to hear the truth.
