Tax Debt Advisors knows IRS Audit Procedures for Peoria AZ taxpayers

Remember that a Peoria AZ IRS audit means that you are being investigated for filing a return and not paying the taxes according to IRS Code.  One must always be truthful with information disclosed to an auditor; but you are not under obligation to give more information than what is requested.

Retaining professional assistance on an audit from someone who is not local is like paying a dentist to do dental work who isn’t available to represent you before an auditor unless you pay for them to fly or travel to your appointment.  It just isn’t financially practical.

Schedule a free consultation with Scott Allen E.A. of Tax Debt Advisors and meet with someone you can talk to face to face.  Scott can be reached at 480-926-9300.  Tax Debt Advisors has been representing taxpayers in IRS audits since 1977.

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.

Tax Debt Advisors—How does an IRS tax lien affect my credit score?

You will notice your credit score nosedive significantly once the IRS files a tax lien against you in Scottsdale AZ.  It is much easier to prevent a tax lien than getting one removed after the fact.  Also, once a tax lien is filed your credit will be damaged even if the IRS releases your tax lien.  If you are seeking a loan and you have a Scottsdale AZ certificate of IRS lien release, most banks will give you a loan but you may still have to pay a higher interest rate simply because the lien was filed in the first place.

Once a lien has been filed, your only real option is to take the matter to the IRS Office of Appeals.  The first question the Appeals Office will ask you is why you didn’t you file an appeal before the tax lien was filed.  And you better have a good reason.  Ignoring IRS notices until you want something is not the best way to win friends and influence people at the IRS.

Some IRS options will either eliminate the tax lien (Offer in Compromise), or eliminate the tax debt and possibly the tax lien (Chapter 7 Bankruptcy).  Scott Allen E.A. of Tax Debt Advisors has the expertise to minimize the negatives of having an IRS problem.  He is available for a free initial consultation and can be reached at 480-926-9300.

Tax Debt Advisors—Do I qualify for Tempe AZ Innocent Spouse Relief?

Most Tempe AZ taxpayers who are married file jointly to get many tax benefits denied to married filing separate returns.  Both taxpayers who file jointly are liable for the tax debt including any interest or penalties—jointly and severally even if they later divorce.  Joint and several liability means that each taxpayer is liable for the entire debt.  This is true even if one spouse earned all of the income or claimed improper deductions and credits.  Even if a divorce decree states that a former spouse is responsible for any taxes due on joint returns previously filed, the IRS will come after both spouses for the entire amount.

There are three types of relief from joint and several liability:

  • Innocent Spouse Relief—will protect you from the additional tax over and above what you owed on your originally filed return, from under reported income or improper deductions and credits taken on original return.
  • Separation of Liability Relief—allocates the additional tax owed between your and a former spouse that was not reported on your originally filed joint return.  The allocated amount is what you are responsible for.
  • Equitable Relief—may apply when you do not qualify for innocent spouse relief or separation of liability relief for an improperly filed joint return which is attributable to your spouse.

You must apply for Tempe AZ innocent spouse relief or separation of liability relief not later than 2 years after the date the IRS first attempted to collect the tax from you.  For equitable relief, you must apply for relief during the statute of limitation period the IRS has to collect the tax.

If you are seeking a free initial consultation for these types of relief from taxes owed, contact Scott Allen E.A. of Tax Debt Advisors.  Schedule your appointment by calling 480-926-9300.
