Overwhelmed by Back Taxes? Letβs Build a Payment Plan You Can Actually Afford
Ignoring a tax bill doesn't make it go away; it only makes it grow through aggressive penalties and interest. Eventually, the IRS will escalate the situation by issuing a Notice of Federal Tax Lien or garnishing your wages.
If you owe the IRS more than you can afford to pay right now, take a deep breath. The IRS doesn't want to bankrupt you; they simply want to establish compliance. Together, we can negotiate a structured solution that gets you back in good standing without destroying your monthly budget.
Depending on how much you owe and how fast you can pay it, here are the options we can pursue on your behalf:
- Short-Term Payment Plans: If you just need a little extra time, we can secure an extension giving you up to 180 days to pay your balance in full, saving you the setup fees of a longer plan.
- Installment Agreements: If you need long-term relief, we can negotiate a monthly payment plan. For balances under $50,000, we can often set up streamlined agreements that prevent the IRS from filing a public tax lien against you.
- Financial Hardship (Currently Not Collectible): If paying anything right now would prevent you from affording basic living expenses, we can petition the IRS to temporarily pause all collection actions against you.
Finding Your Financial Breathing Room
We don't just put you on a generic payment plan. We meticulously analyze your household or business budget to negotiate the absolute lowest required monthly payment the IRS will accept.
