We can represent
you before the IRS in relation to the following:
- Tax Liens can be subordinated
to allow you to buy, sell or refinance real estate!
- Tax Liens can be appealed before or after
they are issued!
- Tax Liens can be lifted when it is in the
mutual benefit of you and the IRS!
- A Tax Lien must be removed if it is premature
or otherwise not in accordance with the administrative procedures
of the IRS!
- Tax Liens are removed when a tax liability
is settled in an offer in compromise!
- The IRS has a discretion to remove a lien
when you enter into an Installment Agreement to pay your tax
liability!
- Tax Liens are removed when the statute of
limitations on collections has expired!
- The IRS can be sued for erroneous filing
of a tax lien!
Every effort should be made to remove
the tax lien because it is a serious impediment to your ability
to obtain credit as needed and when needed. The tax lien, filed
in public records, is also a collection action that can soon be
followed by other collection actions such as "levy"
and "seizure" of all personal assets (including your
home), business assets, and garnishment of your wages.
Nevertheless, the tax lien may be
appealed; it may be invalid; there are procedures to have the
IRS lift the tax lien; and there are statutory
circumstances in which the IRS is required to lift the tax
lien.
- Your tax lien is invalid if the notice of
tax lien is not in writing and issued within 5 business days
after the day of the filing. The notice must state the amount
of unpaid tax, the right to appeal the lien during a 30-day
period following the end of the 5-day notification period.
- The tax lien must be based on a valid assessment.
There are technical requirements to support a valid assessment.
- The IRS can remove a lien: where an installment
agreement has been approved; where the withdrawal would be in
the best interest of the taxpayer, as determined by the National
Taxpayer Advocate; and where it would be in the best interests
of both the U.S. and the taxpayer (where it serves no useful
purpose).
- A tax lien must be removed when your tax liability
is paid, eliminated by the ten-year statute of limitations,
or settled in an Offer in Compromise. The IRS can be forced
to accept an Offer in Compromise
settlement based on what is "collectible" from you
rather than on the basis of how much you owe (even if that settlement
is nominal). Settlements are often "pennies on the dollar."
The IRS can also be forced to consider "hardship"
issues in Offer in compromise cases. Once an Offer in compromise
has been accepted, the IRS must remove the tax lien in 30 days.
