Frequently Asked Questions
Why is a former IRS agent your first and last resort?
Because no one understands the IRS better than someone who’s worked inside it. A former IRS agent knows how cases are flagged, how decisions are made, and what it takes to get your relief approved.
They’ve seen it from both sides, and that gives you a real advantage. Whether you’re just starting your case or already facing enforcement, they know exactly how to respond, negotiate, and resolve it the right way.
If I’ve already started my case by myself and now I’m stuck, how can your team help?
It’s common to start alone and realize the IRS process is more complex than expected. As we have former IRS agents, tax attorneys, and enrolled agents on our team, we have a keen eye for what’s missing, where you got stuck, and why the process stalled.
We’ll review everything you’ve submitted, fix any issues, and step in to take over your case, making sure it’s handled the right way from here on out.
How fast can you stop IRS actions like wage garnishment or bank levies?
In many cases, we can take immediate steps to pause enforcement within 24 to 48 hours. Our team moves quickly to contact the IRS, file the necessary paperwork, and stop actions like garnishments or levies while we work on a permanent solution.
The sooner you reach out, the more options we have to protect your income and assets.
I haven’t filed taxes in years and owe a lot; will the IRS still work with me?
Yes, and that’s exactly where we come in. The IRS is more willing to work with you when they see you’re taking action the right way. Whether it’s five years of missing returns or a large tax bill, our team helps you get compliant, organize your records, and apply for real relief that fits your situation. We’ve handled thousands of similar cases; you’re not alone, and it’s not too late.
What if I’m getting multiple IRS notices and doWhat if I’m getting multiple IRS notices and don’t know what they mean?n’t know what they mean?
That’s a sign the IRS is escalating action, and it’s time to get help. Our team will review every notice you’ve received, explain what each one means, and respond before deadlines pass.
