How to Tackle Tax Debt Head On

Liviakis Law Firm Team

Tax debt can be an overwhelming burden, especially if it has been accumulating for some time. Fortunately, there are a few different strategies you can use to help resolve your tax debt and get back on track. In this blog post, we’ll discuss some of the steps you can take to resolve your tax debt issues.

Payment Plans

One of the most common ways to tackle tax debt is by setting up a payment plan with the IRS. Depending on your financial situation, you may be eligible for an installment agreement or an offer in compromise (OIC). An installment agreement allows you to pay off your taxes over time in monthly payments; OICs allow taxpayers who cannot pay their full debts to settle their debts for less than what they owe.

If you’re unable to pay your full balance due, it’s important that you contact the IRS as soon as possible and discuss what options are available to you. The sooner you reach out, the more likely it is that the IRS will work with you on resolving your tax debt issues. Working closely with an Elk Grove bankruptcy attorney is a good idea as there are some rare instances in which tax debts are eligible for discharge in bankruptcy.

Tax Relief Programs

Another option is taking advantage of one of the various tax relief programs offered by the government. These programs are designed to help taxpayers who are facing financial hardship due to high levels of tax debt. The specifics vary from program to program, but many offer reduced interest rates or even complete forgiveness for certain types of taxes owed. It’s important to note that these programs generally require a great deal of paperwork and documentation in order for a taxpayer to qualify so it’s best to consult with a professional if this is something you’re considering.

Tax Professional Assistance

Finally, another option for those struggling with tax debt is consulting with a qualified tax attorney or certified public accountant (CPA). A CPA or attorney can help analyze your financial situation and determine which options may be best suited for your particular situation. They can also negotiate with the IRS on your behalf and ensure that any agreements made between yourself and the IRS are fair and reasonable.

Resolving tax debt can be daunting but there are several options available that might help ease the burden. Whether it’s enrolling in a payment plan, taking advantage of a government program, or seeking assistance from a professional – there is always something that can be done when faced with unpaid taxes. For consumers dealing with large amounts of tax debt, talking with someone who understands how these situations work will often result in finding solutions tailored specifically to their needs and circumstances .
