IRS Tax Problems

Are you having problems with the IRS? The Eason CPA team can help you navigate the winding road of tax debt resolution.


If you've ever watched daytime television, you've probably seen commercials for IRS tax relief agencies that claim they can solve tax burdens for "pennies on the dollar." In reality, however, many of these firms take unsuspecting Americans just like you for thousands, leaving them with little actual relief from their tax burdens.

 

A trusted local accounting firm like Nyra Eason, CPA, LLC, however, can be a game-changer if you're dealing with tax problems. Nyra and her compassionate team are here to help you resolve your federal tax issues, keeping the IRS at bay once and for all. We take pride in offering efficient and discrete tax relief services to Georgia residents at an affordable price point.

 

The Eason staff can help you with many IRS tax problems, including the following:

  • Wage Garnishment - Wage garnishment is the deduction of money from an employee’s monetary compensation resulting from unpaid federal taxes. It is worth noting that the IRS only garnishes wages after all other tax collection options – including repeated phone calls and USPS mailings – have been exhausted. Wage garnishment is the IRS’s most aggressive tax collection technique, and if you’ve reached this point, you need the assistance of a professional.
  • Bank Levy - A levy permits the legal seizure of your property to satisfy a tax debt. When the IRS issues a levy, they gain the right to take money in your bank account or other financial accounts and seize and sell any vehicle(s), real estate, and other personal property in your name.  If you receive an IRS bill titled “Final Notice of Intent to Levy,” contact Nyra Eason, Karen Drescher, or another CPA at our firm right away to learn your rights.
  • Threatening Letters - The IRS does not make empty threats, so if you begin receiving letters, it is important to pay attention. First, check the correspondence for any errors – if, for example, you have already sent payment, you should contact the IRS to make them aware that you’ve paid your debt. The IRS sends threatening letters when they know or suspect that individuals and business owners owe them money; beyond collecting taxes, the Internal Revenue Service has little to no interest in people’s affairs. 
  • IRS Audit Notification - If the IRS sent you an audit letter, the first step is to not panic. Even though it can be nerve-wracking to discover that the IRS wants to audit you, remember that letters are simply how the IRS communicates with taxpayers – the correspondence isn’t always meant to be threatening or alarming. Rest assured that our expert staff is here to help you meet IRS deadlines and fully understand the audit process every step of the way.
  • Non-Filing - If you fail to file your business taxes, the IRS may issue a substitute return for you. It is important to note, though, that this will not save money on your taxes. In fact, a substitute return will not include any of the standard deductions a qualified CPA would take for you. For example, a substitute return only allows one exemption – single or married filing separate – so you end up with higher tax liability than if you had filed on time.
  • Liens - Federal tax liens can be enacted when a person or business owner does not pay taxes after demand for payment has been issued by the IRS. By law, the lien is in favor of the United States, granting the right for the government to seize property – including real estate and vehicles – belonging to the individual with unpaid taxes. If you’ve received a Notice of Federal Tax Lien, let us know right away so we can help you take the appropriate next steps.
  • Offer-In-Compromise - An offer-in-compromise is a way to reduce IRS tax debt. Qualifying for an IRS settlement can save small business owners like you thousands of dollars in back taxes, penalties, and interest. An offer-in-compromise is unlikely to be accepted if the IRS believes that the liability can be as a lump sum or via a payment agreement, so it is important to enlist professional assistance if you are interested in this tax relief option.
  • Innocent Spouse - Many married taxpayers choose to file a joint tax return because of certain benefits this filing status allows.  Both taxpayers are jointly and individually responsible for the tax and any interest or penalty due on the joint return even if they later divorce. This is true even if a divorce decree states that a former spouse will be responsible for any amounts due on previously filed joint returns.  One spouse may be held responsible for all the tax due even if all the income was earned by the other spouse.


In some cases, a spouse will be relieved of the tax, interest, and penalties on a joint tax return. There are three types of relief available:

  • Innocent spouse relief
  • Separation of liability
  • Equitable relief
