When you owe a large amount in back taxes, the IRS can impose a lien or levy on your property to cover the debt. A lien, which represents a hold placed on your assets, can adversely impact your credit and your ability to secure loans. A levy refers to the impending seizure of your real estate, vehicles, bank accounts, or other assets. Both liens and levies are serious tax issues and require the assistance of a seasoned CPA or other qualified tax professional to effectively appeal them. At Childs Tax, our tax consultants are authorized to negotiate directly with the IRS on your behalf. We’ll find a mutually satisfactory tax settlement that enables you to satisfy your debt with the IRS. We can get bank accounts released as quickly as 24 hours.

Do you have a financial hardship or live check to check? If the amount you owe in taxes exceeds what you’re able to pay within a reasonable period of time, you might be eligible for an Offer in Compromise. This form of tax debt relief involves reaching an agreement with the IRS to substantially reduce your outstanding tax liability. Childs Tax will determine if you’re a good candidate for an Offer in Compromise and advise you on the best course of action. If you’re eligible for this form of tax resolution, we’ll work with you to pursue this strategy and get your tax problems resolved.

Sometimes the best form of tax relief is simply the ability to spread out a large debt into smaller, more manageable payments. At Childs Tax, we know what it takes to provide you with effective IRS assistance. Our objective is to negotiate a realistic installment agreement on your behalf to make it possible for you to settle your tax debt without incurring financial hardship. Depending on your specific financial circumstances, we’ll negotiate a monthly amount that will help you pay off your tax debt in a fair and reasonable way.

The IRS imposes steep fines and interest charges for failing to file and pay your taxes on time, and those penalties can cause your tax bill to skyrocket. However, if your tardiness was due to extenuating circumstances, such as a death in the family or a house fire or flood, you may be eligible for a tax settlement known as penalty abatement. Under those circumstances, the late fees imposed on you are decreased or completely waived. Our experienced tax consultants at Childs Tax can help you secure penalty abatement or another form of tax relief or settlement. We can even work to combine a penalty abatement strategy with an installment agreement to help shrink you IRS problems even further. Call our office today to discuss the available options.
