This info is for a freind whom has consulted w/ an atty. and stated that the only option is a settlement. This party does not have the money for a settlement nor enough assets to sell off to erase the tax liability. All wages garnished and personal asset(s) i.e. car has lien attached. Bankruptcy won’t work due to this is non-dischargeable debt. This person understands the need to pay and has a good job-salary, but the IRS has left her/him with $333 to live on ea. month. Bascially poverty-stricken. No doubt the gov’t has legal basis to due this, but, but, I believe it’s unfair/ unjust to propel a person into dire straits with collection efforts. If the garnishment was not at the present level e.g. leaving this person with say $1000 to live on monthly, it would be affordable. I don’t think the IRS… tax system, was setup to render a preson homeless or otherwise. Thank you for any assistance.
