Tax Debt Advisors, Inc.—I successfully filed a bankruptcy, why is there still a tax lien against my home in Chandler AZ?

A chapter 7 bankruptcy does remove the tax debt but the IRS tax lien will survive the bankruptcy.  Unless further action is taken the lien will stay on the home until the statute of limitations runs out.  This can be as long as ten years.  If you sell the Chandler AZ home with a lien still attached, then if there is anything left over after the mortgage is paid, the IRS will get the rest up to the amount of the tax lien.

However, if you have zero equity in the home after the lien has been filed and the bankruptcy discharged and you can prove with certified appraisals, there is a way to get the lien removed.  If you are seeking to have your Chandler AZ IRS tax lien removed from your home, you need to contact Tax Debt Advisors, Inc.  Scott offers a free initial consultation and will discuss your chance of succeeding in the process.  You can schedule an appointment with Tax Debt Advisors, Inc. calling 480-926-9300.

Work w/ Scott Allen E.A. near Tempe AZ if you get an IRS CP-2000 letter

IRS CP-2000 Letter in Tempe AZ

If you forget to include income on your tax return that was reported to the IRS, you will get a Tempe AZ CP-2000 letter.  Unless someone has stolen your Social Security number, the income items are generally correct.  What is not taken into consideration are any deductions that can be matched against the income.  A good example is a stock sale.  Say for example you did not report a sale of Ford Stock for $15,000 you would get a CP-2000 with a tax bill of $3,000 plus interest and penalties if you are in a 20% tax bracket.  But if you paid $20,000 originally for the Ford stock, you actually lost $5,000 and would be due a refund.  Many Tempe AZ CP-2000 notices are coming for forgiveness of debt issues on credit cards and foreclosed home.

If you received a CP-2000 Notice in Tempe AZ, call Scott Allen E.A. and get a professional opinion on what is your best option to minimize the liability and prevent the IRS from levying your bank accounts or garnishing your wages.  Scott offers a free consultation and can be reached at 480-926-9300.

Mesa AZ IRS Tax Attorney when I have filed a bankruptcy when I own a home and have an IRS tax lien?

First, dealing with a Maricopa County IRS Tax lien is not a legal matter.

But let’s back up and make sure of the circumstances surrounding your bankruptcy.  When a taxpayer files a bankruptcy and has met all the criteria for discharging taxes in a bankruptcy, the tax debt is considered removed.  However, if there was an IRS tax lien filed prior to the bankruptcy and the taxpayer owns a home with equity, the IRS tax lien is still attached against the home for the amount of the equity.  If the taxpayer sells the house before the statute of limitations expires, the IRS is entitled to that equity at the close of escrow.  If however, there is no equity in the home at the time of the bankruptcy, the taxpayer has the option of requesting that the tax lien be removed.

It is critical to get a certified appraisal on the home at the time the bankruptcy is discharged, so that the value of the home is provable if there is a dispute with the IRS.  Waiting several years and expecting the IRS to accept that you had no equity in the home may be difficult to prove.  If you want the Maricopa County IRS tax lien to be removed it is best to do it as soon as possible after the bankruptcy has discharged the IRS tax debt.

Scott Allen E.A. has the expertise to advise you on these matters.  He has seen many clients who were not advised by their Mesa AZ bankruptcy attorney that the lien would survive the bankruptcy and attach to their home.  Very few attorney bankruptcy clients were even advised what to do when they had no equity in their home after their bankruptcy was over.  If you have questions on this matter, contact Scott Allen E.A. in Mesa AZ for a free consultation at 480-926-9300.  There is still hope even if you had equity in your home, to prevent the IRS from using that equity against your IRS debt.

Do I Need an IRS Attorney in Mesa AZ to get my IRS Penalties Reduced?

No, getting your IRS penalties reduced is not a legal matter?  When the IRS reduces your penalties it is called penalty abatement.  This can best be done by filing an appeal with the IRS Appeals Office.  Another option is with the Taxpayer Advocate Office.  It is best to have a consultation with Scott Allen E.A. (who is not a Mesa AZ IRS Tax Attorney) to validate your reasons for making a legitimate appeal or find out right up front that your appeal will be denied.  Scott may be able to come up with better reasons, that are true, that will give you the greatest chance of having your IRS penalties reduced.  Penalties can grow very quickly.  For example, the IRS will penalize you 25% of the tax due for filing just five months after the due date.

An Appeals hearing is requested by filing Form 843.  Generally speaking, Appeals Officers are much more lenient than other levels at the IRS such as collections or IRS auditors.  It is important to have some proof of your claim, so keeping paper records such as medical records is critical.  Remember, the IRS Appeals Office has heard every lame excuse.  I think these guys have lunches with traffic cops to compare excuses.

Call Scott Allen E.A. for a professional opinion regarding your request to have IRS penalties abated.  Scott can be reached at 48-926-9300 and you first appointment is a free consultation.
