Why Should You Contract with Us to Resolve Your Tax Issues?
The top reasons why individuals and business owners find hiring a local CPA, with Certified Tax Resolution Specialist credentials, is the smartest thing to do if you OWE money to the IRS or State:
- Contrary to popular belief, you DO have rights as a taxpayer that you probably don’t even know exists. One of those rights is the right to representation. If an IRS or State revenue officer or revenue agent calls or “visits” you, did you know you are under no obligation to answer any of their questions? You politely respond by asking for their contact information, telling them you are in the process of hiring a professional to represent you, and that this person will contact them directly.
- A CPA that deals with IRS problems for a living knows the “ins” and “outs” and how to deal with the IRS and State Tax Departments so that your rights are protected. A Certified Tax Resolution Specialist also knows how to get you the lowest possible settlement. Generally, our clients never meet or speak with the IRS once we are on the scene!
- If you are being audited, or about to be, the IRS or State will ask you about 50 very intrusive questions in the initial interview with them. How you answer these questions will dictate the fate of your case. Having a tax resolution specialist conduct these meetings, WITHOUT you is the best course of action I can recommend. Half of the referrals to the IRS’s criminal investigation division (CID) come from that “nice” guy or gal you are sitting across the table from at the audit.
We Have the Experience and Expertise To Give YOU Peace of Mind. For example:
A lawyer referred his client who had a complex IRS tax problem. She came to my office in tears because she received a letter that the IRS was going to garnish her wages due to owing back taxes. The IRS was about to garnish her wages, which would result in her losing her job. She had been working with another tax professional and thought he had filed her returns. She received a letter from the IRS and realized her problem had not been dealt with.
We pulled IRS transcripts and found she hadn’t filed tax returns for 2013, 2014 and 2015. We negotiated with the IRS to stop wage garnishment, prepared the tax returns and made a settlement to resolve the issue. The tax problem, in this case, was not as complex as she originally thought. We had a fast resolution and alleviated her stress.
