Do I Need a Scottsdale AZ IRS Tax Attorney if I have an IRS tax problem?

Scottsdale AZ IRS Tax Attorney

No, having an IRS tax problem is not a legal matter and does not require a Scottsdale AZ IRS tax attorney.  There are serious consequences if you do not deal properly with your IRS matter but in reality you do not need a tax attorney unless you have committed a criminal act.  There is no better way to get value for IRS resolution services than using Scott Allen E.A.  He has the expertise to represent you fairly, aggressively and at a cost that you can afford—unlike expensive legal billings.  Scott will never tell you he can do a better job than you can for yourself.  No one can know what your skill level and determination to do tax research on your own.  What Scott will tell you is that you will not be able to get a better settlement of your tax debt than what he can do.  A Scottsdale AZ IRS tax attorney will often make you feel inadequate to the task.  That is their modus operandi (their method of operation).  But if you are not well versed in IRS resolution options, very likely you will not perform at the level that Scott Allen E.A. can, and consequently put yourself in a terrible situation which many times you or your tax representative cannot correct.

A few things to remember about IRS tax resolution work in Scottsdale AZ.  If someone promises seem too good to be true they probably are.  If you hear the words, “No Problem”—you can expect a problem.  May I suggest you call Scott Allen E.A. and schedule a free consultation?  He can be reached at 480-926-9300.  I know you will be glad you did.

Scott Allen E.A. was able to help out his client Joseph with his tax problem without using a Scottsdale AZ IRS tax attorney. He has fallen behind with his estimated tax payments for a couple of years and was afraid to file his taxes thinking the IRS was going to levy or garish his income or bank accounts.  Scott Allen E.A. was able to calm the situation down, represent him before the IRS and take care of the matter for him. Scott prepared his 2020 and 2021 returns and negotiated them into one low monthly payment plan with the IRS. For $510 a month the IRS will stay out of his bank accounts and not file a tax lien on his credit. Attached is a a copy of that agreement to see for yourself.

Why do I need a Tempe AZ IRS Tax Attorney when I can’t pay what I owe the IRS?

Tempe AZ IRS Tax Attorney

First, your inability to pay the IRS is not a legal matter needing a Tempe AZ IRS Tax Attorney.  Most clients that owe the IRS will have a problem or inability to pay what the IRS says they owe them before the debt is fully paid off.  Some of the options available include:

  • Determine if you qualify for a non-collectible status.
  • Determine if you qualify for an Offer in Compromise.
  • Determine if you qualify to have your tax liability discharged in a bankruptcy.
  • Determine if any of your interest or penalties can be abated.
  • Determine if you should amend a previously filed tax return.
  • Determine if you should request an audit reconsideration on a return that was audited—especially if you did not attend the audit and were denied all of your legitimate deductions.
  • Determine if you qualify for a reduction in your monthly IRS Installment Arrangement.
  • Determine if you qualify for innocent spouse relief.

All of these options should be considered if you cannot pay the IRS what you owe.  Scott Allen E.A is well versed in all of these IRS procedures and is available for a free consultation.  He can be reached at 480-926-9300.

Tax Debt Advisors vs. Tempe AZ IRS Tax Attorney:  It’s your choice.

Tax Debt Advisors amended a clients tax return

Sometimes the best method is reviewing past tax return filings to see if anything can be amended. Scott Allen EA did that for his client Stephen and found out that he was being charged taxes on his gambling winnings but had not deducted his gambling losses. The IRS will allow a taxpayer to deduct their losses up to their winnings. After gathering up all the necessary documentation the return was amended and the client saved $27,000 in taxes. Check out the IRS notice below. After this was handled then the remaining amount was negotiated into a monthly payment plan to get it paid off as quickly as possible.

Call Tax Debt Advisors, Inc. for Phoenix AZ IRS Wage Garnishment Help

Phoenix AZ IRS Wage Garnishment

It is always best to try to avoid a Phoenix AZ IRS wage garnishment before it occurs.  Clients complain, “How does the IRS expect you to live?”  They don’t.  They expect you to get serious about resolving your tax matter before they will consider releasing your wage garnishment in Phoenix Arizona.  The IRS does not leave you enough of your paycheck to pay for your necessary living expenses.  That is why you need an IRS resolution expert who can move quickly to restore your paycheck.  The IRS prefers to work with an IRS professional than with taxpayers since there is too much emotion involved and taxpayers struggle to comply with IRS requirements.

The IRS knows you are serious about getting your tax liability settled when they are contacted by your representative.  The same is true if your wages are being garnished by the state you live in.  Scott Allen E.A. of Tax Debt Advisors, Inc. has the expertise to quickly advise you on what you need to provide to get your Phoenix AZ IRS wage garnishment released.  Tax Debt Advisors, Inc. offers a free initial consultation and can be reached at 480-926-9300.  We have been representing taxpayers with wage garnishments for over 40 years.

Scott Allen EA was able to help Lamar with his Phoenix AZ IRS wage garnishment by negotiating his five years of IRS debt into one monthly installment arrangement. With household income of over $210,000 it can be difficult to work out a reasonable arrangement but at $690/month it made it very doable for them to pay the IRS and also keep up with their household bills as well.

Challenge Phoenix AZ back tax returns the IRS files for you

Did you know the IRS can file Phoenix AZ back tax returns in your behalf?

Guess what?  It happens every single day.  If you delay filing your taxes the IRS can elect to file those back tax returns for you.  They refer to this as Substitute For Returns or SFR.  This was the case for a client of Tax Debt Advisors.  Marcus had not timely filed his 2007 1040 tax return.  When the IRS did it for him they came up with a tax bill that accumulated to $10,137 in taxes, interest, and penalties. When Marcus came in to see Scott Allen EA he went over the process step by step in getting the issue resolved and how to “protest” their tax filing.  It is not a matter of “if” the IRS will allow you to challenge their filings but rather “when”. The IRS does not look forward to doing this to taxpayers; they prefer they file the returns themselves.  Below you will see the adjustment made on Marcus’s 2007 tax return that Tax Debt Advisors was able to protest.  Now Marcus only owes the IRS $2,094 on his 2007 tax return.

Biggest Challenge of Filing a Chandler AZ IRS Offer in Compromise (OIC)

Chandler AZ IRS Offer in Compromise

There is good news and bad news about the IRS OIC program.  Good news—everyone in Chandler AZ qualifies for an OIC.  Bad news—very few Chandler Arizona taxpayers can afford to pay the OIC amount.  There is also some Very Bad news—many times the OIC amount is more than the tax owed.

One of those options is a currently non collectible statues. When a taxpayer qualifies for this option they do not have to make any payments at all on their back taxes. This can be a permanent or a temporary solution depending on their current financial status. Walter is a client of Tax Debt Advisors and this is what was negotiated for him to solve his back taxes. All nine years of his back taxes owed are compliant with the IRS now. Below is a copy of the settlement agreement.

Don’t ever just accept that the IRS is always right and you have little to no options to resolve it. That could not be further from the truth. Paul received an audit letter from the IRS stating he owed an additional $25,118.71 on his 2017 tax return. Come to find out this was income that was already reported under his business entity and the IRS was also claiming it as personal income as well because of how the 1099-M was reported. Upon meeting with Scott Allen EA they were able to investigate this issue and file a Glendale AZ back tax returns protest. As you can see from the IRS letter below 100% of the debt was eliminated.
