The following is a detailed outline of the IRS collection process.
If you do not pay in full when you file your tax return, you will receive written notice from the IRS of the amount you owe, a tax bill from the IRS.
This bill or tax notice starts the collection process, which continues until your account is satisfied or until the IRS may no longer legally collect the tax. Notices or letters are sent out in 5 weeks cycles.
First Notice.
The first notice you receive will be a letter that explains the balance due and demands payment in full. It will include the amount of the tax, plus any penalties and interest added to your unpaid balance from the date the tax was due.
You may pay the amount due by sending the IRS a check or money order, payable to the United States Treasury, with a copy of the notice. Over 25 million taxpayers cannot pay that notice.
If you cannot pay in full, you should send in as much as you can with the notice.The unpaid balance is subject to interest that will compound daily and a monthly late payment penalty.
It is always in your best interest to pay your tax liability in full as soon as you can to minimize additional charges.
You also may want to investigate and consider other methods of financing full payment of your taxes, for example by obtaining a cash advance on your credit card or a bank loan because the interest rate and any applicable fees your credit card company or bank charges may be lower than the combination of interest and penalties imposed by the Internal Revenue Code.
Many persons have no way to finance the IRS debt so the IRS has a program to deal with the back taxes.
Paying off your IRS tax debt by using other financial methods also may keep your tax debt from negatively affecting your credit rating.
If you cannot pay in full.
If you are unable to immediately pay your balance in full, IRS may be able to offer you a monthly installment agreement.
If you cannot full pay under an installment agreement you may propose an Offer in Compromise (OIC). An OIC is an agreement between a taxpayer and the IRS that resolves the taxpayer’s tax liability by payment of an agreed upon reduced amount.
If you are unable to pay anything because of a current financial hardship, IRS may temporarily suspend certain collection action, such as issuing a levy , until your financial condition improves. This action is called putting your case in hardship.
The IRS may, however, file a Notice of Federal Tax Lien while your account is suspended. Remember the interest and late payment penalties will continue to accrue while collection is suspended.
Some of the actions IRS may take to collect taxes include:
a. Filing a Notice of Federal Tax Lien
b. Serving a Notice of Levy, or ( bank levy or wage garnishment levy )
c. Offsetting a refund to which you are entitled
The federal tax lien is the IRS legal claim to your property, including property that you acquire after the lien arises.
The federal tax lien arises automatically when you fail to pay in full the taxes you owe within ten days after we send our first notice of taxes owed and demand for payment.
The government also may file a Notice of Federal Tax Lien in the public records.
The Notice of Federal Tax Lien publicly notifies your creditors that the IRS has a claim against all your property, including property acquired by you after the Notice of Federal Tax Lien is filed.
The filing of a Notice of Federal Tax Lien may appear on your credit report and may harm your credit rating. Once a lien arises, the IRS generally cannot release the lien until the taxes, penalties, interest, and recording fees are paid in full or until the IRS may no longer legally collect the tax.
The IRS will withdraw a Notice of Federal Tax Lien if the Notice was filed while a bankruptcy automatic stay was in effect. The IRS may withdraw a Notice of Federal Tax Lien if the IRS determines that
(1) the Notice was filed too soon or not according to IRS procedures;
(2) you enter into an installment agreement to satisfy the liability unless the installment agreement provides otherwise;
(3) withdrawal will allow you to pay your taxes more quickly; or
(4) withdrawal is in your best interest, as determined by the National Taxpayer Advocate, and the best interest of the government.
The IRS also may use a levy to collect taxes. The IRS may levy assets such as wages, bank accounts, Social Security benefits, and retirement income.
The IRS also may seize any of your property for the purpose of selling the property to satisfy a tax debt including your car, boat, or real estate. In addition, any future federal tax refunds or state income tax refunds that you are owed, may be applied to your federal tax liability.
