Professional IRS Tax Lien Help & Removal Services

An IRS tax lien can attach to your property and affect refinancing, sales, and credit standing. 

Mr. Michael Sullivan, a former IRS agent, and Mr. Kevin Bowes, Certified Tax Resolution Specialist, lead a focused team that evaluates your lien situation, identifies the options you qualify for, and works with the IRS to pursue release, withdrawal, or other relief.

How a Notice of Federal Tax Lien Affects You

A federal tax lien can affect more than anyone can initially realize. At Bowes & Sullivan Tax Group, we have seen how these filings impact both personal and business financial matters across a wide range of cases.

Impact on Real Estate

A lien can delay a home sale or refinance because the IRS claim must be addressed before closing. We review the filing and deal directly with the IRS to keep transactions from stalling.

Impact on Credit and Lending

Lenders often check public records before approving loans. A filed lien can influence financing decisions. We assess the lien status and determine the proper next step.

Impact on Business Operations

For business owners, a lien can affect access to credit and financial agreements. Our team addresses the issue so it does not disrupt day-to-day operations.

Impact on Asset Sales

Selling property or major assets may require IRS clearance before funds are released. We manage the communication to avoid delays.

Impact on Future Financial Plans

A lien can affect property or business decisions made later. Early IRS tax lien help prevent longer-term financial restrictions.

Strategies for IRS Tax Lien Removal

Not every tax lien is handled the same way. The right approach depends on your balance, filing status, payment history, and financial situation. 

We review your case carefully before recommending any action.

Lien Withdrawal

A withdrawal removes the public Notice of Federal Tax Lien. This may be available when certain IRS conditions are met. We evaluate eligibility and submit the proper request when it applies.

Lien Subordination

Subordination does not remove the lien, but it allows another creditor to move ahead of the IRS. This is often used in refinancing situations. We work with lenders and the IRS to support the request.

Lien Discharge

A discharge removes the lien from a specific property. This is commonly used when selling real estate or other assets. We prepare the required documentation and coordinate with the IRS to clear the transaction.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, in certain situations, a lien can be released or withdrawn, but it depends on your balance, payment status, and IRS eligibility rules. We review your account carefully to see whether full removal is realistic or whether another option is more appropriate.

Once the debt is fully paid, the IRS issues a lien release. However, a release does not automatically remove the public record filing. We guide clients on whether additional steps, such as withdrawal, may be available after payment.

Refinancing is sometimes possible through lien subordination, which allows the lender to move ahead of the IRS. Approval depends on your equity and financial position. We review the numbers before submitting any request.

Yes. A lien can affect credit lines, contracts, and financing approvals because it becomes part of the public record. We often see business owners face delays when lenders discover the filing.

Ignoring a lien does not make it go away. It remains attached to the property and can lead to enforced collection if the debt is not addressed. Early review gives you more options than waiting.
