Integrated Accounting and Tax Solutions Expertise

It means your books, your returns and any IRS problem are handled as one job instead of three. Say a business owes payroll tax and also has two years of returns outstanding. We reconstruct the books, prepare the returns from them, and use those same numbers in the financial statements the IRS will ask for during collection. Everything lines up, so nothing you file later contradicts what we told the IRS.

Yes. Enrolled Agents are licensed at the federal level by the Treasury and can practice before the IRS without limits on the type of matter or the state you live in. That covers audits, appeals, collection cases, payment plans and penalty requests for individuals and businesses alike. Our founder holds this license and signs on as your representative using Form 2848.

Don't wait it out. Keep every notice and note the dates on them, then call us. We'll get authorized, confirm what the levy is based on, check whether all your returns are filed, and ask the IRS for a release tied to a payment plan, hardship status or another option that fits your finances. Speed matters here, especially with a bank levy, which has a short holding period before the bank sends the funds.

Most people who can't pay in full can get one. The terms depend on the balance, whether your filings are current, your income and expenses, and your track record with prior agreements. We put together the financial picture and propose a monthly amount you can sustain, because a plan that defaults costs you more than one set realistically from the start.

Often, at least in part. First Time Abate relief can remove certain penalties for one tax period if your recent record is clean, and reasonable cause relief applies when events beyond your control got in the way. The outcome depends on which penalty it is and how well the facts are documented. We figure out which route has a real chance and write the request accordingly.

Generally, yes. The IRS wants you current before it will approve most collection alternatives, and the returns themselves set the real liability. That number can be quite different from an IRS estimate. We prepare the missing years from records we help you rebuild and file them in a sequence that supports the larger plan.

Currently Not Collectible is a status the IRS can grant when paying anything toward the debt would leave you unable to cover basic living or business costs. Collection pauses, but the balance stays on the books and interest keeps adding up. The IRS reviews your finances periodically, so we document your situation thoroughly and keep an eye on it.

It can, but move quickly. Unpaid Form 941 taxes put the business at risk, and the IRS can assess a Trust Fund Recovery Penalty against owners or officers personally. We bring deposits and returns current, respond to notices, and set up a payment plan. Then we fix the bookkeeping and cash planning that caused the shortfall, often as an ongoing fractional CFO engagement.
