Is a Phoenix AZ IRS Tax Attorney needed for the Collection Appeals Program (CAP)?

Phoenix AZ IRS Tax Attorney

No, you do not need a Phoenix AZ IRS Tax Attorney to participate in the IRS Collection Appeals Program or CAP.  The CAP was set up to help taxpayers before or after the IRS files a Notice of Lien, before or after the IRS seizes or levies property, bank accounts or payroll checks, or if the IRS rejects or terminates your installment arrangement.

The IRS is required to allow you to have a hearing regarding your position with the Appeals Office.  The IRS cannot enforce collections action before giving you this right.  Your hearing with the Appeals Office is before an impartial person who has not previously been involved in your case.  This is not a legal matter and does not require an IRS Tax Attorney in Phoenix AZ.

Scott Allen E.A. has successfully negotiated settlements with the Appeals Office.  Options may include but are not limited to installment agreements, non-collectible status, offers in compromise, and innocent spouse status.  Call Scott today at 480-926-9300 and schedule a free consultation to see what options are available to you.

Scott Allen EA was able to help out Franklin with his IRS tax debt matter. He did not need to hire a Phoenix AZ IRS Tax Attorney or even file a CAP. What he needed was a quick negotiation of an installment arrangement. This put a stop to all collection activity and got him compliant with the IRS.  Again, avoid getting fearful of the IRS and avoid costly mistakes that come from that fear. View the IRS letter below to see what Scott Allen EA did for Franklin of Phoenix AZ on his back taxes.

Mesa AZ Back Tax Returns saved client $249,147

Let Tax Debt Advisors prepare your Mesa AZ back tax returns.

Blake saved $249,147 in filing his Mesa AZ back tax returns.  Tax Debt Advisors was able to navigate their way through getting Blake out of the collections division of the Internal Revenue Service.  Blake was delinquent on his tax preparation.  Pertaining to the notice below he had not filed his 2003 tax return.  Several years had passed.  The IRS eventually decided that they needed to prepare that tax return for him.  As you can see by viewing the notice below that their number totaled over $288,000 in taxes, interest, and penalties.

Mesa AZ Back Tax Returns

Mesa AZ Back Tax Returns

It is a lot more common then people think to have the IRS file tax returns in the taxpayers behalf.  They call this process ‘substitute for return’.  By going through these measures they can now file tax liens and wage garnishments against you.  They do not necessarily want to do this but they are left to no other choice at times.  They know that this will usually get the taxpayers attention.

If the IRS filed Mesa AZ back tax returns in you behalf, all is not loss.  We can protest the IRS’s decision; its not a matter of WILL they accept but rather WHEN they accept them.  At Tax Debt Advisors they do whats required to get them protested correctly and accurately.

Scott Allen EA at Tax Debt Advisors specializes in filing back taxes and negotiation IRS settlements.  He can do anything an attorney or CPA in these matters.  His average client has not filed in 4-7 years and/or owes the IRS over $50,000.  Put him to work today for you.  He will meet with you for a free initial consultation and during that appointment he will outline the three-step plan towards a resolution.

Thank you.

Tax Debt Advisors help—What is an Offer in Compromise?

Tempe AZ IRS Offer in Compromise

An Offer in Compromise (OIC) is an offer to pay less than what you owe to the IRS and receive a complete settlement of all past tax debts, including interest and penalties.  The OIC program is only one of several ways to settle your Tempe AZ tax debt for less than what you owe.  IRS Form 656 and Form 433-A are the OIC accepted forms for individuals.  IRS Form 433-A Worksheet calculates the amount that needs to be offered.  The terms and conditions of the OIC include filing and paying on time your taxes for the next five years.  If you cannot file your individual tax return (1040) by April 15, you must request an automatic extension and file and full pay by the extension deadline.  The IRS approves only a small percentage of the offers submitted.  In 2004 only 16% of the OIC’s were accepted.  In 2010 the percentage was 24%.

It is a big mistake to file an OIC unless you are fairly certain you will have acceptance.  Interest and penalties continue to accrue as well as the statute of limitations.  If it takes the IRS 2 years to reject you OIC, you will come out of the process in much worse shape than when you submitted your OIC.

Tax Debt Advisors is next doors to Tempe AZ and has the experience to properly calculate and submit an OIC with a high degree of success.  Tax Debt Advisors has been assisting clients on Tempe AZ IRS problems for over 45 years.

Let Tax Debt Advisors, Inc. respond to your Peoria AZ IRS Tax Audit Letter

IRS Tax Audit Peoria AZ

Responding timely and appropriately to a Peoria AZ IRS Tax Audit Notice is critical to a successful audit.  Beginning with the end in mind allows for consistency from beginning to the end of the audit.  Auditors have a sense when there is a problem or errors on a filed return.  Taxpayers often will respond so poorly to an initial audit that the IRS auditor in Peoria AZ will request other years to be subject to an audit.  Generally when this happens the IRS auditor will expand the areas of the audit or audit the entire return including businesses owned by the taxpayer(s).

It’s just not worth the risk of responding poorly to an IRS audit.  Scott Allen E.A. of Tax Debt Advisors has the expertise to meet with and negotiate on your behalf.  Scott can be reached at 480-926-9300.  Tax Debt Advisors, Inc. has represented taxpayers in audits since 1977.

IRS Audit Myth Number 1: By Tax Debt Advisors of Phoenix AZ

Tempe’s Tax Debt Advisors, Inc. will get you thru your IRS Audit Reconsideration

IRS Audit Reconsideration Tempe AZ

It is not uncommon for clients to not show up to their scheduled IRS audit Tempe AZ.  An audit is like being scheduled to have a surgery without your request—it’s scary.  But when the IRS agent sends you the results of the audit, the real shock begins.  Everything is denied as a deduction on your return and/or expenses taken on your business return.  The agent knows that this is unrealistic but their procedure is to deny everything if you don’t show up.

If you want to get your tax liability reduced, the IRS will allow that through the Tempe AZ IRS audit reconsideration process.  This is not a quick or easy effort.  The IRS will eventually review your support for your deductions but in the mean time you need to get into some IRS settlement option.  Most often an Installment Arrangement.

Scott Allen E.A. of Tax Debt Advisors, Inc. has the ability to advise you on the Tempe AZ IRS Audit Reconsideration procedures.  Remember that you will have to have patience waiting for the IRS to respond.  If you want to reduce your tax liability, contact Scott Allen E.A. at 480-926-9300.

Arizona’s Tax Debt Advisors, Inc.—Is IRS Penalty Abatement Possible?

IRS Penalty Abatement Scottsdale AZ

Arizona IRS penalty abatement is not only possible but must always be considered before entering into a settlement option.  The IRS has over 100 penalties that they use to encourage compliance to file of tax returns on time and making prompt payment of amounts due.  Penalties can exceed the amount of the actual tax in some cases.

The IRS will abate penalties is you can prove “reasonable cause.”  Having an excellent past track record of filing and paying on time will help your case immensely.  Rarely is interest on the tax debt abated but the interest on the amount of penalty abated will be eliminated.  Often you will have to take your case to the IRS Office of Appeals in Arizona to be successful.

IRS penalty abatement almost always requires professional assistance.  Scott Allen E.A. near Scottsdale AZ will evaluate your chances of success.  Call Scott today at 480-926-9300 to schedule a free initial, in office, appointment
