Problemas con impuestos atrasados de varios años | Solución inmediata

If you have back taxes across multiple tax years, the Internal Revenue Service may assess tax liabilities with penalties and interest and ongoing enforcement actions. Unfiled tax returns or substitute return filings can increase tax debt, trigger tax liens, cause bank levies, and escalate the collection process.

We assist with filing back taxes by preparing accurate tax return filings, obtaining tax transcripts through Form 4506-T, and reviewing wage and income transcripts and financial information. Acting under the power of attorney, we pursue tax compliance and evaluate solutions such as installment agreements, Offer in Compromise, Currently Not Collectible status, or penalty abatement.

What This Service Does

Multi-year tax debt cases are layered. They often involve unfiled returns, assessed balances, substitute returns, penalty accumulation, lien filings, and active levy threats. Our service addresses every part of the problem in a structured, coordinated way.

Representation Under Power of Attorney

Once retained, we prepare and submit IRS Form 2848, power of attorney, and declaration of representative. Form 2848 authorizes an eligible representative to represent you before the IRS. This allows us to speak directly with the IRS, request account transcripts, and manage your case without you having to make repeated calls.

With representation in place, we control communication. We respond to IRS letters, monitor deadlines, and ensure that the information provided to the government is accurate and consistent. This reduces the risk of misstatements and missed procedural rights.

Full IRS Account Investigation

We need to understand the exact status of your account before developing any strategy. We obtain and analyze IRS transcripts for each year involved to confirm which returns were filed, which were not, and how balances were assessed. This step prevents surprises later in the process and ensures accuracy in negotiations.

  • Substitute for return identification: If the IRS filed a substitute for return due to missing filings, we determine whether those assessments can be corrected through properly prepared original returns. Substitute returns may not include deductions and exemptions you are entitled to claim.
  • Enforcement status confirmation: We verify whether your account is in active collection, whether a federal tax lien has been filed, and whether levy action is pending. This allows us to prioritize protective measures immediately if needed.

Compliance Restoration Strategy

The IRS generally requires that taxpayers be compliant with their filing obligations before approving most resolution programs. If returns are missing, we develop a filing plan that addresses them in the correct order and with accurate documentation.

  • Prioritized filing plan: We identify which years must be filed first to prevent enforcement acceleration. Filing out of order or without a coordinated plan can create additional complications.
  • Correction of inflated assessments: When substitute returns were filed, we prepared original returns to reflect accurate income and deductions, as appropriate. This can reduce the total assessed balance and improve eligibility for relief programs.

Enforcement Stabilization

The collection process continues until the tax debt is satisfied or the IRS can no longer legally collect the tax. When enforcement risk is present, timing is critical.

  • Collection holds: We request temporary holds when appropriate while filings or financial documentation are being prepared. This can prevent immediate levy action during case development.
  • Levy risk management: If a final notice of intent to levy has been issued, we respond within required deadlines to preserve rights and prevent wage or bank levies.
  • Lien analysis: We assess the impact of a filed federal tax lien and integrate it into our comprehensive resolution strategy.

Negotiation and Resolution Planning

Once we restore compliance and stabilize enforcement, we assess the most effective resolution path in accordance with IRS regulations.

  • Installment agreements: Payment plans allow taxpayers to pay over time. We calculate realistic payment amounts based on verified financial data to reduce the risk of default.
  • Offer in compromise evaluation: If you cannot pay the full balance and meet eligibility standards, we evaluate whether an offer in compromise is appropriate. The IRS considers income, expenses, and asset equity.
  • Currently Not Collectible status: If the IRS determines you cannot pay due to hardship, collection may be temporarily delayed. We prepare and submit required financial disclosures when applicable.

Why This Gets Worse Without Help

Multi-year tax debt escalates because the IRS process does not pause.

Continued Penalty and Interest Accumulation

Even if enforcement has not yet begun, penalties and interest generally continue to accrue. Over time, balances can grow significantly, making eventual resolution more difficult.

Escalating Notices

The collection process begins with a bill and continues until it is resolved. Notices become progressively more serious. Ignoring early letters often results in later ones that include intent to levy.

Federal Tax Lien Filing

A federal tax lien is the government’s legal claim against your property when you neglect or fail to pay a tax debt. The IRS may file a public notice of federal tax lien, which can affect credit and financing options.

Levy Authority

The IRS has the authority to levy wages, bank accounts, and other property to satisfy a tax debt. Once enforcement begins, disruption to income and operations can happen quickly.

Reduced Negotiation Flexibility

Waiting until final notices are issued can limit procedural rights and shorten response deadlines. Acting earlier often provides more structured options.

How the IRS Enforces This

Multi-year back tax problems typically follow a structured enforcement path.

Balance Due Notices

The IRS sends notices requesting payment and explaining the amount owed. Each notice includes a response deadline. Failure to respond moves the case forward.

CP504 Notice

CP504 is a notice of intent to levy under Internal Revenue Code section 6331(d). If you fail to make a payment, the IRS has the authority to seize your income and bank accounts.

Letter 1058, or LT11

This letter serves as a final notice of the IRS's intent to levy your property and informs you of your right to request a hearing. If you do not take action, the IRS intends to seize your property or its rights.

Federal Tax Liens

A federal tax lien arises when a tax debt remains unpaid after demand. The IRS may file a notice of federal tax lien to alert creditors.

Wage and Bank Levies

A levy can garnish wages or take funds from bank accounts. In the case of bank levies, funds are generally held for 21 days before being transferred, allowing a limited time to respond.

Who This Service Is For

¡Gracias! ¡Hemos recibido su envío!

  • You need this if you owe the IRS for multiple tax years and the balance continues to grow with penalties and interest. Multi-year debt requires a coordinated strategy that addresses every open year together rather than isolated payments that leave older balances exposed.
  • You need this if you have unfiled federal tax returns and are concerned about the IRS filing substitute returns in your place. Substitute returns may not include deductions or exemptions you qualify for, which can increase the assessed balance and accelerate enforcement.
  • You need these documents if you have received CP504, LT11, or letter 1058 notices referencing levy action. These notices signal a serious escalation in the collection process and shortened response deadlines that require immediate attention.
  • You need these documents if a federal tax lien has been filed against you or your business. A lien is the government’s legal claim against your property and can affect credit, financing opportunities, and certain business transactions.
  • You need this information if you are worried about wage garnishment or a bank levy affecting your income. IRS levy authority can disrupt paychecks and freeze operating accounts, creating immediate financial pressure.
  • You need this service if you operate a small business and back taxes are affecting cash flow, payroll, or vendor relationships. Enforcement actions can quickly create operational instability and strain daily operations.
  • You need this service if you have tried to resolve the issue yourself but still feel overwhelmed by notices and deadlines. Multi-year cases involve multiple filings, transcripts, and negotiation standards that require structured representation.

Common Mistakes People Make

Our Representation Process

Initial Consultation and Case Assessment

We begin with a detailed review of your entire tax situation, not just the most recent notice. We discuss which years are involved, whether returns are missing, what balances have been assessed, and whether enforcement is pending. We also identify immediate risks such as levy deadlines or lien filings. This first step helps us determine how urgent your situation is and which actions must be taken right away.

Power of Attorney Filing

Once you retain us, we prepare and submit IRS Form 2848, power of attorney, and declaration of representative. This formally authorizes us to represent you before the IRS. Once processed, it enables us to communicate directly with IRS personnel, request transcripts, and obtain copies of notices. Establishing representation quickly is critical because it allows us to control communication and protect your procedural rights.

Transcript and Enforcement Review

Once we establish representation, we acquire your IRS account transcripts for every tax year in question. We analyze assessed balances, penalties, interest, substitutes for returns, and collection status codes. We confirm whether your account is assigned to automated collections or a revenue officer. This detailed review ensures that we understand your exact exposure before recommending any resolution strategy.

Compliance Restoration

If returns are missing, we coordinate preparation and filing in a structured sequence. Filing compliance is often required before the IRS will approve most resolution options. If substitute returns were filed, we evaluate whether accurate original returns can replace them and, if so, potentially reduce the balance. Restoring compliance strengthens your negotiating position and prevents further filing-related penalties from accumulating.

Financial Analysis and Strategy Development

We conduct a thorough financial review that includes income, living expenses, business expenses if applicable, assets, and liabilities. This information is used to determine which resolution options are realistically available under IRS standards. We evaluate installment agreements, determine offer-in-compromise eligibility, and assess currently not collectible status based on documented financial data rather than assumptions.

Negotiation and Resolution Implementation

After selecting the appropriate strategy, we prepare all necessary forms, financial statements, and supporting documentation. We submit proposals to the IRS and communicate directly with assigned personnel to address questions or additional requests. Throughout this phase, we advocate for a structured resolution that aligns with your financial reality while remaining within IRS procedures and guidelines.

Ongoing Monitoring and Compliance Maintenance

After a resolution is approved, our role does not immediately end. Multi-year tax problems often return when compliance is not maintained. We help ensure future returns are filed on time and required payments are made. Staying current is essential because most IRS agreements can default if new balances arise. Our goal is long-term stability, not temporary relief.
