BEST TAX RELIEF ATTORNEY

So you did not file your income tax returns for at least ten years, and here you come back into the country finding out that the IRS had been contacting you through your old good address but to no avail. Until such time that they find out of your quiet return to the country, they will automatically send for you to pay your dues for those ten years of being unable to file your income tax returns.

So what you need to do is to get your documents ready and be ready as well to hear the shock of your life. The tax you owe them may be really high enough to let your eyes roll. But you’ve got no choice. It is either you pay your dues or you get convicted. Which choice would you then go for?

Having failed to file your personal income tax returns can put you in real hot water with the Internal Revenue Service. If you are placed in this kind of situation, it will be best for you to hire a tax attorney. Living in New York never deprives you of the best legal services.

Once you approach any New York tax attorney, you can feel assured and confident that your case will be suitably handled.

The first step which your New York tax attorney will get busy with is to trace back the years of your back taxes. The IRS will send you constant reminders about the deadline of your dues.

lp you to be able to call the IRS without fear that they will take action against you. Do you want to be able to respond to the IRS letter that you received? Do you want to call to resolve an ongoing issue you have with the IRS? Read further.

1. You must have a good general disposition- Never complain to an IRS employee. They do not want to hear how sick you are, how poor you are, how bad the government is, how your ex-partner or ex-spouse ripped you off, how good you were to pay most of the original portion of the taxes, or the recent flood in your house. When you call the IRS, stick with ‘just the facts’. Think about why you are calling, write it down, and be prepared for their questions.

2. Maintain good rapport at all times- You should try to make the IRS employee feel good to work with you, regardless of their attitude. You must have unlimited patience at all times. What if you were asked to recite your full address, and then two minutes later you were asked ‘what is your complete address?’. Would you blurt out – you just asked me that!’ with an angry tone? Or would you calmly say ‘I gave that to you, here it is again’? How willing would you be to give the address the third time? Working for the IRS can be a very confusing and difficult job. You will get a lot further by accepting their behavior, and not arguing or getting upset with them. If at any time you feel uncomfortable in the conversation, you can always say that you can’t talk right now, and hang up.

3. Be prepared to answer personal questions- You will be asked to give them personal information such as, where you live, bank, work, telephone numbers, bank account numbers, and addresses. If you are not calling to settle an outstanding balance, you can give them the information so that they can verify who you are, and proceed with the conversation. If you do have an outstanding balance, even if you think it’s an IRS error, be very careful here. The information can be used against you to collect the tax liability. So what do you do? Give it to them! “What!” you say? ‘You don’t need me to tell you that!’ Actually, perhaps you do. After many years and thousands of tax representation cases, I’ve concluded that this is the biggest fear my clients have had about calling the IRS. The problem lies not in the fact that the IRS will use it against them, it’s the fact that taxpayers are unprepared to face the problem, and do what is necessary to resolve their IRS issues. The more prepared you are, the less exposure you have to being victimized. Let’s look at a few situations…

You are concerned about paying the taxes you owe. It may be a good idea to fill out their form 433a before calling the IRS http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f433a.and 433b if necessary. Use their allowable expense tables. http://www.irs.gov/businesses/small/article/0,,id=104627,00.html http://www.irs.gov/businesses/small/article/0,,id=104801,00.html http://www.irs.gov/businesses/small/article/0,,id=104623,00.html Using these forms and tables will allow you to arrive at the information needed to negotiate an installment agreement. You may need your accountant to help you.

b) You disagree with the amount owed and want advice. You shouldn’t be calling the IRS for advice in the first place. The IRS website contains a lot of helpful information at http://www.irs.gov .or by doing internet searches for your topic.

c) You’re calling to schedule or get an extension of appointment. Make sure you have a good excise for the extension, and don’t discuss the arguments you have. If they insist, then say you are not prepared right now and will be happy call back after you have your information prepared. Don’t be intimidated into giving unprepared responses.

4. Use your bag of tricks- If you need to resolve something and have trouble ask for the manager. If that doesn’t work, you can call the taxpayer advocate service. Before calling, familiarize your self with the taxpayer advocate at http://www.irs.gov/advocate . This is your strongest weapon. If you feel the IRS is about to take collection action against you before you have time to resolve the situation, and you can’t get an extension, you could file a collection appeal. Familiarize yourself with http://www.irs.gov/appeals

So let’s recap…. First you have a good general disposition, then you make sure you maintain a good report. You feel comfortable and secure knowing that if you are not happy you can hang up, and you don’t have to feel intimidated to answer questions you don’t want to. You have done your research into how you will pay the liability, or otherwise resolve to matter at hand. You are prepared to have the manager help, or if not, use appeals and/or the taxpayer advocate service as needed.

I realize that all this may be easier said than done.
