Recent Success by Scott Allen EA on IRS CP-2000 Notice

Melissa received an IRS CP-2000 Notice on her 2020 tax return she prepared herself. Some information was not reported correctly on her taxes and the IRS sent her a notice of adjustment. She either needed to accept it or protest it. After a discussion with Scott Allen EA he determined that he could protest the IRS notice with an amendment tax return filing. This would correct the issue and remove the additional $10,000 of taxes they were assessing. See the IRS approval letter below of them accepting the amended tax return and removing their assessment.

Tax Debt Advisors Protecting Assets from Chandler AZ IRS Levy

Chandler AZ IRS Levy

It is not possible to protect your assets for lengthy periods of time without doing something illegal. But there are certain actions you can take to protect yourself and your assets until you can get a settlement with the IRS and remove an IRS levy in Chandler AZ.

If you know a Chandler AZ IRS levy is going to happen you might consider transferring funds in a bank account to another bank.  Remember this is not to run from the IRS but rather to allow you to financially exist until you get matters worked out.  If the IRS inquires about what specific assets you have, you are required to tell them the truth.  However, it is not a crime to not disclose assets that they do not ask for. If you decide to move your bank account funds to another bank and do not initiate an IRS settlement soon thereafter, the IRS will assume you are not serious about getting your IRS matter resolved.  This can have serious repercussions later on.
Scott Allen E.A. of Tax Debt Advisors has the expertise to advise you on how to protect your assets from a Chandler AZ IRS levy while you are working towards an IRS settlement.  Tax Debt Advisors has been representing clients with IRS problems since 1977.  Call for a free initial consultation at 480-926-9300.

IRS Payment Plan Settlement

Joe hired Scott Allen EA to stop his Chandler AZ IRS Levy.  He owes the IRS for seven years of back taxes owed. Facing an IRS levy, Scott represented him as his power of attorney, put a stop to all collection activity, gathered up current financial information on the taxpayer, and negotiated his large IRS debt into a low $192 per month payment plan. Take a minute to think about that. Joe’s stress level went from a high of a TEN down to about a ONE just knowing that the IRS is off his back now.  You too can have this same peace of mind. Give Scott a call to determine what your best solution is. Also, view the settlement agreement for Joe below.

No more Mesa AZ IRS Garnishment

How to stop a Mesa AZ IRS Garnishment

Yes, a Mesa AZ IRS garnishment can be stopped and in many cases it can be stopped before your next paycheck. The IRS will issue garnishment notice to your employer when you owe them for unpaid back taxes and/or behind on filing your tax returns. Your employer is required by law to withhold a chunk of your paycheck and send it to the IRS. Often times it can be as much as 30-40% of your take home pay. Your employer will respond to the Mesa AZ IRS garnishment notice until the debt is fully satisfied or they receive a notice of release of levy. Its always better to get compliant with the IRS before a garnishment notice is sent out but if that isn’t the case you still have options.

How to get the IRS to send out a notice of release of levy to an employer?

In one sentence, you need to get compliant! Scott Allen EA of Tax Debt Advisors Inc can help you do so. To get the IRS to issue a notice of release on the Mesa AZ IRS garnishment an agreement needs to be negotiated and approved by the IRS. An agreement could be a currently non collectible status, a payment plan, or an agreement to full pay in 90 days to give you some examples. Once the IRS approves an agreement they have to send out a release of levy to your employer. Scott Allen EA will typically do most of this work over the phone with the IRS to expedite the process. By mail, things can take weeks to happen. Most taxpayers do not have weeks to wait as their next paycheck may only be a few days away. Time is of the essence and Scott Allen EA understands this. He will work into the evening if it means you have a shot as getting 100% of your next paycheck.

This was all negotiated before his next payday and David’s wages were never garnished. Both years he owes for are included into that arrangement. Take a look as the IRS approval notice below.

Tempe Arizona IRS Help: Collections Due Process Appeal?

Tempe AZ IRS Help

When a taxpayer and the IRS cannot come to an agreement regarding taxes owed or the settlement of how those taxes will be paid, Congress in 1998 enacted the Collection Due Process Appeal (CDP) process.  A Tempe Arizona IRS Tax Attorney is not required to take this action.  The IRS Appeals Office was set up to independently review the dispute when the negotiations between the IRS and taxpayer breakdown or when the taxpayer has ignored previous collection attempts by the IRS.

When the taxpayer receives his final notice to pay, they have 30 days to appeal the collection with a CDP Appeal.  The Appeals office is interested in resolving the matter as quickly as possible.  Many times it is in the best interest of the taxpayer to wait until they can petition the collection of taxes with the Appeals Office.

The Appeals Officer is willing to look at any settlement option that the law allows.  Scott Allen E.A. is well versed in all the settlement options and the amount to be paid with each option.  Scott will negotiate the best settlement the law will allow.  Call Scott Allen E.A. at 480-926-9300 for a free consultation to evaluate filing a Collection Due Process Appeal and your settlement options.  Before thinking you need a Tempe AZ IRS Tax Attorney give Scott Allen a call today!

A taxpayer will have a lot of different options available to them when needing Tempe AZ IRS help. It could involve a CDP Appeal but often times it will not. It just requires timely follow through service and that is exactly what Scott Allen E.A. does provide. See what he did for his client Cindy. She found herself a couple years behind on paying her personal taxes. She didn’t need to file any appeals or challenge any IRS decisions. She just needed proper representation and negotiate the two years of back taxes into a low monthly payment plan.

Just because the IRS says its so does not make it correct.  If you feel your audit did not go as you has hoped and you have a new position for the IRS to consider you may want to consider IRS audit reconsideration in Phoenix AZ.  Audit reconsideration can also be an effective tool if you have unfiled tax returns.  The IRS can “audit” you on that unfiled tax return and asses you on the tax debt that they come up with.  Its up to the taxpayer to file and protest their findings.  One thing to always remember with Phoenix AZ audit reconsideration though is that they are not quick fixes.  As we all know the IRS can be slow and patience has to be used throughout the process. Scott Allen EA has seen IRS audit reconsideration take 2 months and he has seen them take 18 months.  Because of this it is important to have an IRS power of attorney like Scott Allen EA to work aggressively for you. Schedule an appointment to meet with him today for an in office visit.

If you have an IRS assessment that you have zero idea on how they came up with that amount its probably because the IRS filed what they call a SFR return.  SFR stands for substitute for return. What does this mean? It means you had an unfiled tax return so they filed in your behalf. These are returns that you want to take to audit reconsideration. Scott Allen EA has the experience to get that done for you.

Another Case Update for Audit Reconsideration in Phoenix AZ

Christie went through a CP-2000 underreporting audit by the IRS because of some errors made by them and also their previous preparer who prepared their 2016 tax return.  Due to inaction, the IRS assessed Christie over $88,000 in tax, interest and penalty. She met with Scott and hired him to be her power of attorney and investigate the matter. It was discovered that the IRS was erroneously doubling her K1 income. An amended business return was filed and the IRS took both K1’s as income to her rather then removing the original and only assessing the amended K1.  It was nearly a 9 month long fight with the IRS to get this explained and correct; but the result made it all worth it. Over $79,000 of tax, interest and penalty was removed from her account. Click and view the IRS audit reconsideration Phoenix AZ letter below.
