Call a Chandler AZ IRS Tax Attorney! I need to present my case to an IRS Appeals Officer.

Chandler AZ IRS Tax Attorney?

Not so fast, this is not a legal matter and does not need a Chandler Arizona IRS Tax Attorney.  You can present your own case or have an Enrolled Agent (E.A.) or an Attorney, CPA or your tax preparer present your case.  This is not a legal proceeding; and there is no judge.  It will just be you and the Appeals officer in a small informal room.  Many times this meeting can be handled over the phone if you are using a representative like Scott Allen E.A.  Scott has successfully negotiated settlements for less than you owe.  Scott will generally see how the Appeals officer wants to conduct the meeting.  Scott will usually start with a brief overview of the position he wants to establish and waits for the Appeals officer to ask for any documentation needed to verify your position.

If you want an IRS representative to present your case to the Appeals Office, contact Scott Allen E.A. at 480-926-9300 for a free consultation and a reasonable flat fee.

Sometimes it isn’t necessary to go through the IRS appeals office either.  Michael and his wife got behind on two years of back taxes owed. They were getting advice from all directions and places on what do to about it. Some were telling him a payment plan, others to file an offer in compromise, and others to present the case to an IRS appeals officer. Before making a decision Scott Allen EA always councils to weigh the pros and cons of each option. Yes, you might be able to present the case to an IRS appeals officer but how long will that take?  Will it really be an option that will save you tax, interest, or penalties? Or will it just be something that a Chandler AZ IRS tax attorney can bill you a lot of hours for? Before submitting an IRS offer in compromise do your own research and verify if you are a viable realistic candidate or not. Everyone believes they are a candidate until they start to “plug in the numbers”.  Michael was a Chandler AZ taxpayer whole researched these options with Scott Allen EA but ultimately we discovered he didn’t qualify for either. With his income and tax debt size we needed to negotiate a low monthly payment plan. $185 per month! That is all Michael needs to pay to the IRS. He is a pretty happy camper about it too. Check out the letter below of the IRS accepting out proposal.

Back Tax Returns in Chandler

Do you have back tax returns in Chandler to file?

If you are reading this blog you may be in a similar situation that Jason was in recently. He had four years of back tax returns in Chandler to file with the Internal Revenue Service. One of those tax years was 2017. 2017 was a year the IRS decided to file for him (because he had not) What was the result? Just took at the IRS letter below. He had an account balance due of $75,762. Unbelievable right? Especially when you look lower and see what the result was after Scott Allen EA represented Jason and protested the IRS’s decision.

Back Tax Returns in Chandler

In addition to protesting the 2017 tax year for Jason, Scott Allen EA also got him caught up with his 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021 back tax returns in Chandler. The IRS requires a taxpayer to be completely filing compliant in order to negotiate or work through a settlement. The $13,733 refund was able to be applied to taxes owed on other years as well helping out Jason greatly. With the remaining tax debt owed, Scott Allen EA was able to successfully wrap it all into one monthly payment plan that Jason could afford to do on a monthly basis.

This is just one of many examples Scott Allen EA of Tax Debt Advisors could show you. He is representing clients before the IRS on a daily basis. This is his niche and all that he does. He can represent you from start to finish in preparing your back tax returns in Chandler and settling any IRS debt into one of their many settlement options available.

Beware of out of state companies advertising this type of work online, on the TV or radio, or by mail. Usually they are making promises that just aren’t true especially without knowing anything about your overall tax debt or your current financial status and assets. It is always best to work locally with someone who does with work full time to receive the best representation. Scott Allen EA will meet with you for a consultation for no charge and no obligation. If he cannot see himself being an asset to you he will either give you a referral or let you know how you can tackle it best on your own.

Thank you.

File Back Tax Returns in Gilbert

Scott can file back tax returns in Gilbert

If you forget or fail to file back tax returns in Gilbert the IRS can file returns for you. Yes, you read that correctly. The IRS will gather whatever income information that can on you and submit a tax return for processing and assess you a balance due. They will do this usually three to seven years after the tax return was due and after sending the taxpayer several warning notices. If you don’t recall receiving any of these notices the IRS could be sending them to your last address on record which could be pretty old depending on the last time you filed a tax return. It is always better to take care of back tax returns before the IRS gets it to this level that way there isn’t protest work involved. Either way, Scott Allen EA of Tax Debt Advisors, Inc can file back tax returns in Gilbert for you. He will speak to the IRS throughout the entire process so you do not have to.

Have you maybe lost some of your tax and financial records in order to file back tax returns in Gilbert accurately? Scott Allen EA can also help with that process as well. As your IRS Power of Attorney he can help retrieve as much information from the IRS as possible.

Scott Allen EA has a recent client, Brandon who was behind in some Gilbert back tax returns. One of those years being 2014. This IRS filed and made their own assessment that totaled over $31,000 in back taxes owed.  This was outrageous. Upon an investigation into the account Scott Allen EA discovered that the IRS grabbed all the taxpayer’s gambling winnings and included it as income. The IRS didn’t know about or take into account any of the taxpayer’s gambling losses. Brandon then went and gathered up his casino and bank records to support deducting gambling losses. The tax law allows you to deduct your gambling losses up to a taxpayers winnings. Scott Allen EA prepared a 2014 return to protest the IRS’s Substitute For Return (SFR). Upon its full acceptance over $21,000 of taxes, interest, and penalties was removed. Check out the IRS acceptance letter below.

It is always important to do a complete review of a taxpayers account before negotiating a payment plan, non collectible status, offer in compromise, filing a tax bankruptcy, or file back tax returns in Gilbert.  Scott Allen EA can assist and represent you before the Internal Revenue Service from start to finish. Give him a call today.

Tempe Arizona IRS Help: Collections Due Process Appeal?

Tempe AZ IRS Help

When a taxpayer and the IRS cannot come to an agreement regarding taxes owed or the settlement of how those taxes will be paid, Congress in 1998 enacted the Collection Due Process Appeal (CDP) process.  A Tempe Arizona IRS Tax Attorney is not required to take this action.  The IRS Appeals Office was set up to independently review the dispute when the negotiations between the IRS and taxpayer breakdown or when the taxpayer has ignored previous collection attempts by the IRS.

When the taxpayer receives his final notice to pay, they have 30 days to appeal the collection with a CDP Appeal.  The Appeals office is interested in resolving the matter as quickly as possible.  Many times it is in the best interest of the taxpayer to wait until they can petition the collection of taxes with the Appeals Office.

The Appeals Officer is willing to look at any settlement option that the law allows.  Scott Allen E.A. is well versed in all the settlement options and the amount to be paid with each option.  Scott will negotiate the best settlement the law will allow.  Call Scott Allen E.A. at 480-926-9300 for a free consultation to evaluate filing a Collection Due Process Appeal and your settlement options.  Before thinking you need a Tempe AZ IRS Tax Attorney give Scott Allen a call today!

A taxpayer will have a lot of different options available to them when needing Tempe AZ IRS help. It could involve a CDP Appeal but often times it will not. It just requires timely follow through service and that is exactly what Scott Allen E.A. does provide. See what he did for his client Cindy. She found herself a couple years behind on paying her personal taxes. She didn’t need to file any appeals or challenge any IRS decisions. She just needed proper representation and negotiate the two years of back taxes into a low monthly payment plan.

Is a Phoenix Arizona IRS Tax Attorney the only choice there is for an IRS Tax Specialist?

Phoenix Arizona IRS Tax Attorney

Except in criminal cases, IRS tax specialists do not need to be a Phoenix Arizona IRS Tax Attorney.  In fact using a Phoenix Arizona Tax Attorney for your IRS problem would be like going to a brain cancer specialist for a sore throat.  Generally speaking, when a Phoenix Arizona IRS Tax Attorney advertises that they do IRS work, they are really saying they do not have enough legal work to keep themselves busy.  If a brain cancer specialist advertises that they do family practice work, wouldn’t you wonder if you were going to be over charged for the same services as a family practice physician?  The same applies to IRS Tax Attorneys in Phoenix Arizona advertising IRS resolution services.

Scott Allen E.A. is licensed in all 50 states to represent taxpayers before the IRS.  A Phoenix Arizona IRS Tax Attorney is only licensed as an attorney within the state he has passed a bar exam.  Scott Allen will represent you at the highest level in getting you the settlement that is best for you—at a fee you can afford.  Don’t be fooled by all the tax attorney hype on top of the intimidation that you will regret not using a tax attorney in Phoenix AZ.  It’s simply not true.  Call Scott Allen E.A. at 480-926-9300 for a free consultation today.

Gilbert AZ IRS Tax Attorney to get an IRS tax lien released or removed?

Gilbert AZ IRS Tax Attorney

No, getting an IRS lien released is not a legal matter. If the IRS has filed a lien, it is important to know how long the Gilbert AZ tax lien has been filed.  After the statute of limitations period of 10 years, IRS tax liens are automatically released.  However, the IRS does not report this information to credit bureaus unless the taxes have been paid.  Scott Allen E.A of Gilbert and Mesa can advised you how to get the credit bureaus aware that your lien is no longer in place.

If you have just had a lien filed and feel that it should not have been filed in the first place and did not take advantage of a Collections Due Process Hearing, contact Scott Allen E.A. and set up a free consultation to determine if you have a valid reason for the IRS to release the tax lien.

If the lien is not released, there are situations where the IRS will subordinate their lien to allow you to get a loan on your Gilbert AZ home.  There are certain criteria that have to be met but if you qualify Scott Allen E.A. can get a subordination of your IRS tax lien.  Instead of working with a Gilbert AZ IRS Tax Attorney contact Scott Allen E.A if you have a tax lien to determine what your options are.  Scott can be reached at 480-926-9300.

Charles came in to meet with Scott Allen EA to discuss his tax problem. He had some old IRS debt still hanging out there but also needed to file back tax returns for six years. Rather then hiring a Gilbert AZ IRS tax attorney he hired Scott (an Enrolled Agent) to represent him before the IRS. Scott Allen EA was able to stop garnishment action, prepare all six years of his back tax returns and prevent the IRS from slapping a tax lien on him. All of his IRS debt was negotiated into a low $590/month payment plan. With all this being handled for him he is now applying to by a home for himself. This is just one of the thousands of happy clients that have used Scott for IRS tax relief in Gilbert AZ.
