We are Mesa Arizona’s Top IRS Problem Solvers for Offers in Compromise—General Information

IRS Offer in Compromise Mesa AZ

Here is some general information the IRS Offer in Compromise.  Beyond the basics you are best to consult with a local IRS resolution expert in Arizona.  If you truly cannot afford to pay back the taxes owed, including the interest and penalties, you may be a candidate to apply for an Offer in Compromise.  This IRS settlement option allows you to settle your entire debt for a lesser amount.  This can be done by making short monthly payments or one lump sum.

An Offer in compromise has an advantage over filing a bankruptcy because payroll taxes cannot be eliminated by filing a bankruptcy.  Once your offer has been accepted and you have paid in full the agreed amount, the IRS will remove all tax liens.  The amount that is considered acceptable by the IRS is based on your ability to pay.  Financial statements with proof of all of your personal and business expenses will have to be provided along with bank statements.

Many potential Mesa AZ Offer in Compromise clients qualify for an Offer but the amount considered acceptable to the IRS is more than the taxpayer can pay.  To determine if you are a viable Offer candidate, contact Scott Allen E.A. of Tax Debt Advisors, Inc.

We are Mesa Arizona’s Top IRS Problem Solvers for Payroll Tax Debt

Payroll taxes are not dischargeable in a bankruptcy and therefore need to be resolved with some other IRS settlement option.  A monthly payment plan will require you to pay the principle, interest and penalties in full or until the statute of limitations runs out which will be 10 years from the date of assessment of the IRS tax debt.  If your monthly payment is very small or the statute of limitations is about to expire or you qualify for a currently not collectible status you may want to selection one of these options versus an IRS Offer in Compromise.  The Offer program may be the best option if none of the above apply to you.

The Offer program is a lengthy process that will require you to stay in compliance during and after you have been approved and made the required payment.  Few taxpayers understand the process and how to keep their Offer from being disallowed.  Scott Allen E.A. in Mesa AZ provides a free initial consultation and can walk you through all the steps needed to select the right settlement option.  You can reach Scott Allen E.A. at 480-926-9300.

We are Mesa Arizona’s Top IRS Problem Solvers for Offer in Compromise—Big Warning !

Let’s start out with a big warning. Very few taxpayers qualify to do an IRS Offer in Compromise. Most cannot afford the amount of the Offer the IRS will accept. If you are told by a IRS resolution professional that you qualify for an Offer in Compromise get a second opinion. This is especially true if you are talking with an out of state company that often make promises they cannot keep. Get your second opinion locally here in Arizona. You will probably find out that you do not qualify for the Offer amount you were first told and you will likely feel better about using a local company as well.
Scott Allen E.A. of Mesa AZ is the right choice to get your correct determination if you qualify for an Offer and the amount you would qualify for. Often the Offer in Compromise option is not the best settlement option. Before you leap into a commitment financially, call Scott Allen E.A. at 480-926-9300 and schedule a free initial consultation.

What do you need to know about the Scottsdale AZ Audit Reconsideration process?

Audit Reconsideration should be used as a remedy when:

• The IRS assessed additional tax from an audit, or

• A return was prepared by the IRS called a Substitute for Return (SFR).

The audit reconsideration process in Scottsdale Arizona allows the IRS to “reconsider” the taxpayer’s documentation.  If you have already paid the tax liability in full, you may file an amended return on IRS Form 1040X.

The IRS will “reconsider’ if:

• You are able to submit information that was not taken into consideration that would result in lowering the tax owed.

• You filed a return after the IRS filed a substitute for return (SFR).

• You believe the IRS made an error in their calculations of taxes or penalties or interest owed on your tax debt.

• Tax credits were denied.

Scott Allen E.A. of Tax Debt Advisors is available for a free initial consultation about filing for an Arizona IRS Audit Reconsideration.

How long does it take for the IRS to release a tax lien after I pay off the liability?

The IRS has 30 days to release a federal tax lien in Peoria Arizona after it has been paid off or the statute of limitations has passed.  IRS Code Section 6325 (a) also requires the IRS to send you a copy of the Certificate of Release of Federal Tax Lien.  But this is not a perfect world.  So if you do not have the release within 35 or 40 days, you need to contact the IRS and remind them of their duties.

If you are in dispute with the IRS over your IRS tax lien, call Scott Allen E.A. of Tax Debt Advisors, Inc. for a free Peoria AZ initial consultation.

What to do when the IRS Freezes my Bank Account in Arizona?

This is one of the best actions the IRS takes to get an Arizona taxpayers attention.  When the levy hits your back account, all funds in the account up to the amount of the levy are frozen.  You have 21 days to get the problem corrected before the bank is required to send your money to the IRS.  If you owe the amount of the levy, the IRS will more than likely get the amount levied unless you can prove the loss of the money will cause an extreme hardship.  An IRS levy is a one time event and will not affect future deposits.  However, there are always exceptions to IRS actions and rules.  For example, if a Revenue Officer issued the bank levy, they can continue to send levies against the bank account to get more of your money.  The best course of action is to resolve your IRS tax debt using an AZ professional IRS resolution company.  Scott Allen E.A. of Tax Debt Advisors, Inc. can provide you with all of your settlement options.  Scott provides a free initial consultation.  Contact Scott Allen at 480-926-9300 as soon as you get notice of a levy on your bank account.

How to Avoid Making your Arizona IRS Problem Worse?

Most clients who have an Arizona IRS tax debt have actually made their problem bigger out of fear.  By following a few steps, you can minimize your IRS matter and make your settlement quicker and more favorable.
  1. Respond quickly to all IRS correspondence.  If you don’t understand what the IRS is asking, get professional help.  There are important deadlines that if missed will make your matter worse and take longer to get it settled.  You may miss out on certain settlement options if deadlines are missed.  It is imperative that you keep all of your options open if you want the best possible settlement.
  2. If you have unfiled returns, find a Mesa AZ professional that can file your back tax returns. Returns filed by the IRS usually result in much higher tax debt, interest and penalties.  Don’t fear that you can’t file a return because you have lost certain records.  Returns can be “created” accurate enough for IRS acceptance with professional assistance.
  3. Almost all IRS correspondence will allow you to have your case put on hold if you contact them before missing the deadline.  This will give you time to seek professional help and take the correct action.
Procrastination is self-administered poison when dealing with IRS problems in.  Get professional help in Arizona as soon as possible and your options will improve immensely.  Get the settlement you are seeking.  Don’t paint yourself into a corner.  Call Scott Allen E.A. of Mesa AZ today at 480-926-9300 and schedule a free initial consultation.

Know if You Should File a Collection Due Process Appeal

If you file a Collection Due Process Appeal, you will effectively put a hold on any IRS action to collect the tax debt until you have a hearing with an Appeals Officer.  In most cases this is the proper action to take to make sure you have time to present a settlement option that will be in your best interest. However, there are times when filing a Collection Due Process Appeal will do you more harm than good.

Two examples of when you would not want to file for a CDP Appeal are when you want the statute of limitations to run out or you want to discharge your tax liability in bankruptcy.  The CDP Appeal affects the 3 year rule and 240 day rule with regards to when a bankruptcy can be filed to discharge your tax debt.

An Arizona IRS resolution professional can provide essential advice in this area.  Contact Scott Allen E.A. of Mesa AZ at 480-926-9300 to schedule a free initial consultation.  The decision of whether to file a CDP Appeal is too important to make on your own.  Your success in settling your IRS problem will depend on taking the rights steps that provide you the right settlement option.

Is the IRS Still Accepting Offers in Compromise?

Yes, but…  The bad news is that over the last two decades the numbers of offers being accepted has been in decline.  The good news is that a higher percentage of offers applied for are being accepted.  Why?  Many tax payers and companies representing tax payers filed offers that were outside of the rules.  Most of the companies filing frivolous offers have gone out of business and left their clients stranded and in much deeper trouble with the IRS.  Avoid companies outside of your area that you cannot meet face to face.  They make promises they cannot keep.  Avoid being taken because they tell you what you want to hear.  The following is an action list that must be kept to get acceptance of your offer:
  • Make sure you can file and pay on time.  This means having enough withholdings if you are an employee or making estimated tax payments.  Prepare your return in February to give you time to come up with any amount due by April 15 and avoid filing extensions.  All past returns must be filed to be included in the offer.
  • Consider using a Mesa AZ tax professional to help you through the paperwork maze.  Even small errors will cost you big time—by having your offer rejected or having the IRS counter your offer with a much higher amount to pay.  The IRS will require proof of all expense tems included in your financial statements.
  • Consider all of your settlement options before filing an Offer.  Many times the best settlement option is not an Offer.  This is another reason to have a tax professional in Mesa AZ on your side.
  • When the IRS requests additional information, respond promptly.  Any delay will increase the chances that your offer will be rejected, lost or transferred to another IRS employee.
Tax Debt Advisors, Inc of Mesa Arizona offers a free initial consultation to discuss your potential Offer in Compromise or other tax matters.
