Get clear answers to common questions about tax relief
If you owe more than $10,000 or are facing IRS collection activity, a qualified tax professional may help you evaluate options such as a payment plan, reduced settlement, or Offer in Compromise. Professional representation can also help you avoid costly mistakes.
The IRS generally requires the past six years of returns for compliance. A tax professional can help you obtain records, prepare missing returns, and address any resulting debt. Acting sooner can help limit additional penalties and interest.
Tax relief programs do not directly lower your credit score. However, unpaid tax debt may lead to a federal tax lien, which can affect your finances. Resolving the debt and releasing a lien may help you begin rebuilding your credit.
Fees vary by company and by how complex your case is. The consultation is free, and any fees are disclosed to you by the company before you agree to anything.
No. Programs like an Offer in Compromise have strict qualification rules based on income, assets, expenses, and ability to pay. Many people do not qualify, and any company promising a settlement before reviewing your finances should be avoided.
It depends on the program and on IRS processing times. Some options move in weeks, others take many months. A tax professional can give you a realistic timeline once they review your case.
