IRS Audit Tempe AZ help: Don’t delay the process

Being an American citizen we all will get audited at least once during our working years. If you are prepared; you should not have any fear. Dealing with an IRS audit Tempe should be more of an inconvenience then it is fearful.  Scott Allen EA can help with that “fear factor” by making the audit process as convenient as possible for you. What is meant by the word convenient? By giving him an IRS power of attorney he can represent you by speaking and negotiating to the IRS directly for you.  By allowing him this authority your fear level will drop.

Below is just a small example of how Scott Allen EA of Tax Debt Advisors helped in a IRS audit Tempe for a current client.  About a year after Liz filed and received her refund for tax year 2013 she received a proposed bill in the mail from the IRS for just over $1,000. This proposed bill came from information reported to the IRS that was not reported on her original filing.  In 2013 she was forgiven of some debt by a creditor.  This is a taxable event in most cases.  Upon discussion Scott determined that Liz should not have to pay taxes on the debt forgiveness because she qualified to exclude it from income based upon an insolvency test. If a taxpayer is insolvent they are not required to pay taxes on forgiven debt up to that amount. It still has to be reported on her taxes; just as non taxable. Scott protested the IRS’s assessment of the tax with proper explanation and tax forms to justify it and got the proposed tax bill completely reduced to zero.

Why You Should Hire An Enrolled Agent Vs. Hiring A Tax Attorney

View our most recent blog postWhen is a Phoenix AZ IRS tax attorney necessary and when isn’t it?

Your tax issues may not be as bad as you think – It doesn’t take a rocket scientist or tax lawyer to work with the IRS. Legal training is not necessary to handle most tax problems. Although, tax attorney will scare you into thinking the representation is necessary. Let Tax Debt Advisors help you solve your tax problems without the fear or the huge retainer fees.

To Get a Second Opinion – Most tax clients think they will get a higher quality service if they pay more money. However, that is not true. Tax attorney can charge up to 400% more money for the same service a tax debt advisor can perform. If you are already speaking with a tax attorney, get a second option as well. We offer free tax issue consultations.

Don’t Make A Decision Based On Fear – Do you think you need a tax attorney because you filed fraudulent tax returns, you might be disappointed. Tax lawyers generate income based off of fear. Most of our tax clients started with a tax attorney, only to find out that they try to intimidate you into thinking you have a bigger tax problem than you do. And, that’s almost always followed by a big retainer fee.

Stop IRS Levy in Phoenix

What is one way to stop IRS levy in Phoenix?

First off, there are many options to stop IRS levy in Phoenix.  The quickest but not always easiest way is to pay the liability in full. Now why would someone want to do that?  Well, if they know they owe the tax, have assets or income to justify paying the debt off it could be in their best interest to do so. If a tax lien has not been filed against your credit; full payment will prevent that. If you are under a levy, the levy will be release immediately.

However, for those of us that cannot full pay the liability or doubt the IRS’s claim in tax debt owed their are other options.  Agreeing to a monthly payment plan will also stop IRS levy in Phoenix.  Depending on your proposal and size of IRS debt will determine the length and complexity of the process. Financial information most likely will need to be provided to substantiate your income and expenses. To get help with a payment plan negotiation to stop (or prevent) an IRS levy contact Scott Allen EA with Tax Debt Advisors.  This is exactly what he did for his client mentioned in the notice attached below. Ron came in to meet with Scott to discuss the IRS levy notice he received.  Working together they were able to put a stop of the IRS levy, file some back tax returns and get a payment plan with the IRS setup.

Looking for success in resolving your tax debt? Call Tax Debt Advisors

Tax Debt Advisors is a locally and family owned practice here in Mesa AZ.  Started in 1977 the company is on its second generation of IRS debt help service. When dealing with an IRS matter, whether it be tax preparation, settling IRS debt, or navigating through unfiled tax returns your top priority should be finding the right fit in a local company. Beware of out of state companies advertising IRS resolution work making false promises up front before knowing anything about your case.  Only pay for services as they are to be performed rather then large up front retainers.  Tax Debt Advisors breaks up the resolution process into three steps and you only pay for the work when it is to be accomplished one step at a time.

Nathan, a client of Tax Debt Advisors had existing tax liabilities, unfiled tax returns, and threatening letters of wage garnishment. Upon getting started Scott Allen EA was able to get in contact with the IRS, hit the pause button on any levies or garnishments, and begin the tax preparation phase.  After he got Nathan caught up on his back tax returns then they could move onto the third phase; the IRS resolution phase. Based upon his current financial state he qualified for a currently non collectible status. What does that mean? Nathan does not have to pay a dime on his back tax returns because he cannot afford to do so.  View the notice below to see the IRS acceptance letter.

Could Nathan qualify to settle his IRS debt in an Offer in Compromise? Yes he could and would probably qualify but he does not have the means to save up or borrow to afford the lump sum settlement offer. But, if his situation changes he could qualify and submit an offer with the IRS at a later date. It is important to know about all available options before starting a negotiation.

Phoenix AZ IRS Offer in Compromise

Completed and approved Phoenix AZ IRS Offer in Compromise

Congratulation to Michael on his successful Phoenix AZ IRS Offer in Compromise. The process took about 14 months from start to finish but when you can settle your $445,000 IRS debt for about $22,000 in total it would be considered a great day. That is the kind of day Michael had. The IRS will consider an Offer when the amount offered represents the most they can expect to collect within a reasonable period of time.  A reasonable period of time to the IRS varies in each individual case but its typically the remaining amount of time left to collect the debt. The IRS has a ten year period to collect a debt from when the tax return was filed.  Each tax year will have its own expiration date.  It important to understand that not everyone qualifies for an IRS offer and it may not be the best available option for everyone either.  What if Michael’s IRS debt was only 9 months away from expiring? Scott Allen EA would not have prepared and submitted an IRS offer. He would have negotiated a non collectible status or minimal payment plan and let the debt expire. It would have been a easier and cheaper option for him all around. Because Michael still had 7.5 years left remaining on his statute they elected to go the Phoenix AZ IRS Offer in Compromise route.

Mesa AZ IRS CP2000 Audit

Getting the right help with a Mesa AZ IRS CP2000 Audit.

First off, what is a Mesa AZ IRS CP2000 audit? This is the most common for of an IRS audit. More CP2000 notices get sent out each year then probably just about any other audit notice. A CP2000 notice occurs when you file your tax return and what you report does not match up with what was reported to the IRS.

Example: You file your tax return with your W2 income and your capital gain income, but by mistake to forget report the money you withdrew early from your 401k.

When a scenario like this happens you will get a letter from the IRS letting you know they know about the early distribution from your 401k with a proposed amount of taxes owed.  From here you have a couple options.  You can accept and pay the additional taxes, you can protest their position, modify their assessment, or file an amended tax return.  Just because you get a Mesa AZ IRS CP2000 notice does not mean the IRS is always right. They could be applying the additional tax bill incorrectly or your retirement company could have issued an incorrect statement by mistake.

At the end of the day a CP2000 IRS notice is not the end of the world. You have plenty of time to challenge it or work out a payment arrangement on the additional taxes owed. If you find yourself opening up a Mesa AZ IRS CP2000 notice it could be best to have an Enrolled Agent represent you to walk you through the process. Scott Allen EA of Tax Debt Advisors specializes in helping taxpayers with their IRS problems whether it be an audit, unfiled tax returns, or dealing with collection matters. Below is a picture of a recent success by Scott Allen EA in challenging a clients CP2000 notice.
