How IRS Audit Group Helps with an IRS Levy
We start by reviewing the notice, the tax periods involved, the amount due, and the current collection status. We also check whether the levy is only proposed or whether it has already reached your bank, employer, or another third party. This helps us understand how urgent the situation is and what options may still be available.
A levy can be released for different reasons.
Depending on the case, this may involve financial hardship, a qualifying installment agreement, an account error, payment of the liability, or another IRS release condition.
We review the facts first and then determine which approach is most appropriate.
If the levy is affecting your ability to pay necessary living expenses, we review your current financial position. This may include income, housing costs, transportation, medical expenses, bank balances, debts, and other necessary expenses.
The purpose is to show the IRS a clear and accurate picture of your financial situation.
The IRS may ask for financial records before making a decision.
We help organize the documents needed to support the request. This may include bank statements, pay records, housing costs, business financials, and other relevant records.
We focus on presenting the information clearly and consistently.
When authorized to represent you, IRS Audit Group can communicate directly with the IRS. We can discuss the levy, respond to information requests, explain financial hardship, address deadlines, and follow up on the status of the request. This reduces the need for you to manage technical IRS conversations on your own.
A levy release does not remove the underlying tax debt. Once the immediate collection issue is addressed, we review the next step for the remaining balance. That may include an IRS payment plan, Offer in Compromise, Currently Not Collectible status, penalty relief, or another collection solution.
The goal is not only to deal with the current levy. It is also to reduce the risk of another collection action later.
The IRS Audit Group Approach
Understand the Case Before Taking Action: We do not begin with a standard levy-release request. We first review the notice, account status, deadlines, financial position, and previous IRS actions. That helps us understand what the case actually requires.
Match the Strategy to the Facts: A hardship request may be right for one taxpayer.
Another may need a payment arrangement, appeal, account correction, or broader tax-resolution plan. We select the approach based on the facts of the case.
Prepare Before Communicating: IRS collection matters often require detailed financial information. We organize the documents and identify possible questions before responding. This helps keep the case consistent and reduces avoidable confusion.
Address the Immediate Problem and the Longer-Term Issue: Stopping or releasing the levy is important. But the underlying tax debt also needs a plan. Our approach considers both.
Benefits of Working with IRS Audit Group
Clear Understanding of Your Situation: We explain what the levy means, where you are in the collection process, and what options may be available.
Less Direct IRS Communication: When authorized, we can communicate with the IRS on your behalf.
This can reduce the stress of handling technical collection discussions yourself.
Better Organized Financial Information: We help gather and organize the financial records the IRS may request.
A Strategy Based on Your Circumstances: We do not assume every levy case should be handled the same way. The approach is based on your tax balance, financial condition, and collection status.
Support Beyond the Levy Release: If the levy is released, we can continue helping with the remaining tax debt.
