We have a new administration and one of the changes was to lay off about 6,000 IRS collection officers. What does this mean to you?

First of all, collection will continue.

So, if you owe the IRS, don’t think it is going away. The IRS will continue to pursue you. The difference now is that if you try to contact the IRS it will be more difficult in some cases. The IRS is busy handling all the collection cases, so they have less time to talk to you on the phone.

It used to be you ended up dealing with untrained unsupervised IRS representatives. Now you have no one to deal with, just the letter you received. The result is collection will become more aggressive, and less leeway will be given to you than before.

Now more than ever before it has become a very poor time to deal with the IRS yourself. They really enjoy putting a levy on your bank account or if you have a business levy your merchant account so you can’t take in any monies. All your sales will go to the IRS. So basically, you are out of business. If you are a contractor, the IRS will levy your customers so when they go to pay you, they must pay the IRS instead. 

This is a time to obtain good representation from a Tax Resolution Specialist.

Let us handle the case for you and avoid all the unpleasant circumstances dealing with the undermanned IRS. 

So, if you are in this situation do not despair! Obtaining good representation will undoubtedly obtain a good result for you.
