come up and celebrate the new year here this week,

23
00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:19.000
So Happy New Year, Merry Christmas, I hope everybody had

24
00:01:19.239 --> 00:01:23.280
wonderful Christmas break. You know, we kind of got a

25
00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:25.879
chance to get away from the office and everything when

26
00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:29.239
we're starting to look forward to the new year. Tax

27
00:01:29.280 --> 00:01:34.400
season starting for US. Tax season gets us time of

28
00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:37.159
all kinds of filings, and it's kind of like the

29
00:01:37.959 --> 00:01:42.840
triple quadruple witching game month when it comes to taxes

30
00:01:42.879 --> 00:01:46.239
and moving into January, because you know, one we got

31
00:01:46.280 --> 00:01:49.959
to get making sure that you got your estimated tax

32
00:01:49.959 --> 00:01:54.120
payments made if you're required to make them by January fifteenth.

33
00:01:54.599 --> 00:01:58.560
You then have the filing deadlines for all kinds of

34
00:01:58.640 --> 00:02:03.480
forms for payroll tax is nine forty one's, nine forties two's,

35
00:02:03.959 --> 00:02:07.000
and then you also have the filing requirements for ten

36
00:02:07.079 --> 00:02:12.120
ninety nine miscellaneous see all coming up by the end

37
00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:13.360
of January.

38
00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:18.199
That is a lot to be done in one month.

39
00:02:18.319 --> 00:02:21.199
And when you have a company electruck or tax tools

40
00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:27.240
that does a lot of bookkeeping for owner operators and businesses,

41
00:02:27.680 --> 00:02:29.400
you know you've got to make sure that you've got

42
00:02:29.439 --> 00:02:32.280
everything right to be able to issue the ten ninety

43
00:02:32.360 --> 00:02:35.680
nine's for anybody that's driving for any of the trucking

44
00:02:35.719 --> 00:02:38.199
companies that we're bookkeeping for.

45
00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:41.680
You got to make sure that any other ten.

46
00:02:41.599 --> 00:02:44.560
Ninety nine that need to be sent out, you've got

47
00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:47.759
all the information for which we try to collect out

48
00:02:47.879 --> 00:02:52.199
the year from our clients. So you've got a lot

49
00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:53.960
of work to do, and you want to make sure

50
00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:56.520
that you've got all your eyes dotted and t's cross

51
00:02:56.639 --> 00:03:00.639
and book's done, so that you know that you've got

52
00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:04.520
all the payments you've made to your contractors in the

53
00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:07.479
system to be able to issue those ten ninety nine. Now,

54
00:03:07.560 --> 00:03:09.719
as we move into the new year, one of the

55
00:03:09.759 --> 00:03:13.520
big things that you as a taxpayer want to make

56
00:03:13.560 --> 00:03:17.319
sure is that, hey, you're getting off on the right.

57
00:03:17.800 --> 00:03:22.919
But so if you owe the IRS or state taxes,

58
00:03:23.319 --> 00:03:27.520
it is a great time to get a solution in

59
00:03:27.719 --> 00:03:32.560
place to start the new year without having to look

60
00:03:32.719 --> 00:03:36.120
over your shoulder at what the IRS is going to

61
00:03:36.159 --> 00:03:40.240
be doing to you. Yes, the IRS collections they don't

62
00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:42.319
care what time of the year it is. They don't

63
00:03:42.360 --> 00:03:44.120
care if it's the New Year, they don't care if

64
00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:47.159
it's Christmas. They don't care if it's Easter or any

65
00:03:47.199 --> 00:03:51.319
other holiday out there. They just want their money because

66
00:03:51.360 --> 00:03:55.360
any money you have they consider errors. So to deal

67
00:03:55.400 --> 00:03:58.919
with the IRS, the first thing you should do is

68
00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:03.159
make sure you have filed all your tax returns.

69
00:04:03.319 --> 00:04:03.960
So if you have.

70
00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:07.800
Any unfiled tax returns, we need to get those filed

71
00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:14.680
first and foremost. Second thing before you explore any of

72
00:04:14.719 --> 00:04:18.839
the IRS payment options or solutions, we need to do

73
00:04:19.079 --> 00:04:24.439
a complete tax analysis to check to see if not

74
00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:28.000
just in compliance, but what the tax debt the IRS

75
00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:32.000
is saying you owe. Check the Statute of limitations to

76
00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:34.120
see if any of this debt is going to fall

77
00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:39.600
off anytime soon, and then make a decision whether or

78
00:04:39.680 --> 00:04:41.920
not you're going to go to maybe a short term

79
00:04:41.920 --> 00:04:46.639
payment plan, a long term payment plan, offering compromise, temporary

80
00:04:46.680 --> 00:04:52.399
delay of collections due to financial hardship, non collectible status.

81
00:04:52.439 --> 00:04:56.560
All these things can be out there in play. So

82
00:04:57.240 --> 00:04:59.120
we're going to go through each one of these things

83
00:04:59.160 --> 00:05:02.079
and make it decision. Hey, what do we need to

84
00:05:02.120 --> 00:05:04.519
do and how do we need to do it? As

85
00:05:04.519 --> 00:05:06.720
we're going through this program. So when we talk about

86
00:05:06.800 --> 00:05:12.800
filing all the returns, the first crucial step of filing

87
00:05:13.399 --> 00:05:16.800
unfiled returns. The reason we have to do that is

88
00:05:16.839 --> 00:05:21.279
because the IRS requires you to be current on all

89
00:05:21.920 --> 00:05:26.279
filing and payment requirements for the current year to be

90
00:05:26.319 --> 00:05:31.480
eligible for most IRS payment options even if you can

91
00:05:31.560 --> 00:05:34.399
unafford the full amount code at the time of filing.

92
00:05:34.759 --> 00:05:39.360
So what they're saying is is that you need to

93
00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:43.199
make sure you filed every return. That means ten forty's

94
00:05:43.360 --> 00:05:47.000
if you have a s corp, eleven twenty s's, if

95
00:05:47.000 --> 00:05:51.519
you have a partnership, ten sixty five payroll tax forms.

96
00:05:51.639 --> 00:05:55.720
The whole works of got to be filed, and they

97
00:05:55.759 --> 00:05:59.279
prefer them filed on time, So you then need to

98
00:05:59.480 --> 00:06:03.800
start getting all those incompliance, but making sure the current

99
00:06:03.959 --> 00:06:08.560
year you're doing everything timely. Now, what does the IRS

100
00:06:08.600 --> 00:06:12.079
mean by being current on all filing and payment requirements,

101
00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:14.800
Because obviously, if you owe the IRS money and you

102
00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:16.680
can't afford to pay them, you're not going to be

103
00:06:16.759 --> 00:06:21.879
current on your payment requirements. They're only talking about payment

104
00:06:21.959 --> 00:06:26.839
requirements for the current year. That means your estimated tax payments.

105
00:06:27.040 --> 00:06:30.319
That makes your payroll tax payments. So you've got to

106
00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:32.959
be making these payments timely.

107
00:06:34.040 --> 00:06:34.560
This year.

108
00:06:35.040 --> 00:06:38.079
So if we're moving into twenty twenty six, you know,

109
00:06:38.120 --> 00:06:41.160
the real nice thing is is you have a clean slate,

110
00:06:41.560 --> 00:06:44.279
So the first estimated tax payment isn't going to be

111
00:06:44.360 --> 00:06:48.000
due for twenty six until April fifteenth, you will need

112
00:06:48.040 --> 00:06:51.360
to make your payroll tax payments if you're doing payroll

113
00:06:51.480 --> 00:06:55.639
and stuff, so you know those payments would be due

114
00:06:55.800 --> 00:06:59.480
based on what the IRS is sending you a letter

115
00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:02.639
now about that says you've got to pay you weekly

116
00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:05.879
or semi weekly or monthly or quarterly. You've got to

117
00:07:05.879 --> 00:07:09.920
be in compliance with whatever the rules are or payroll taxes,

118
00:07:10.360 --> 00:07:14.319
and then we can move forward to figure out what

119
00:07:14.879 --> 00:07:19.079
your options are. So you know, from here on now,

120
00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:22.839
you're going to be required to file on time, So

121
00:07:23.000 --> 00:07:26.560
filing your return, you know, by the deadline, or if

122
00:07:26.560 --> 00:07:28.959
you're filing ten forty and you do an extension, making

123
00:07:29.000 --> 00:07:33.360
sure you have it fully paid or something by April fifteenth,

124
00:07:33.759 --> 00:07:36.839
and then get your return filed by the extension deadline.

125
00:07:37.000 --> 00:07:38.399
So it gives you some options.

126
00:07:38.439 --> 00:07:43.279
But by filing, by filing these returns by the deadline,

127
00:07:43.399 --> 00:07:46.120
it's going to help you avoid the failure to file penalty,

128
00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:50.120
which is often much more significant than the failure to

129
00:07:50.160 --> 00:07:52.839
pay penalty. So you know, you need to be aware

130
00:07:52.839 --> 00:07:57.399
of these things so that you can look at what

131
00:07:57.680 --> 00:08:00.879
is going to be happening to you if you miss

132
00:08:01.000 --> 00:08:05.040
filing deadlines, because not only when you miss that filing deadline.

133
00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:06.959
If you were to put a payment plan in place

134
00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:09.600
or an offering compromise in place and you miss it deadline,

135
00:08:09.720 --> 00:08:12.480
well then the penalties are severe and you lose your

136
00:08:12.480 --> 00:08:15.560
payment plan, you lose your offering compromise. Those you can't

137
00:08:15.560 --> 00:08:18.920
afford to lose at that point and then have to

138
00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:22.720
put them back in place again. So it becomes very

139
00:08:22.720 --> 00:08:26.040
important that once you have a solution, and even as

140
00:08:26.040 --> 00:08:29.560
you're working on your solution, you file everything on time,

141
00:08:30.040 --> 00:08:33.960
including your payroll tax forms, including your company tax forms,

142
00:08:34.759 --> 00:08:37.759
and your personal tax forms. Now you know, one thing

143
00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:41.799
that does help you along the way and maybe even

144
00:08:41.840 --> 00:08:44.639
putting some delays in for the IRS is paying what

145
00:08:44.759 --> 00:08:47.879
you can when you can. You know, even if you're

146
00:08:47.879 --> 00:08:52.240
making some payments towards it, sometimes it delays the IRS

147
00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:56.519
is collection because it reduces what you owe but also

148
00:08:56.600 --> 00:08:59.080
reduces the amount of penalties and interests they are going

149
00:08:59.120 --> 00:09:02.799
to be accruing as well on that tax debt, and

150
00:09:02.879 --> 00:09:06.879
it gives the appearance that you're actually attempting to put

151
00:09:06.879 --> 00:09:10.799
a solution in place or working towards putting a solution

152
00:09:10.919 --> 00:09:16.120
in place. So sometimes even making that contribution towards the IRS,

153
00:09:16.200 --> 00:09:22.840
towards your debt. That payment, you know, it helps moving

154
00:09:22.879 --> 00:09:26.399
things down the road and delaying things with the IRS

155
00:09:26.480 --> 00:09:30.440
that sometimes it puts off the collection activity as well.

156
00:09:30.600 --> 00:09:35.159
Sometimes that small payment goes a long way to generating goodwill,

157
00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:38.000
especially sometimes if you're dealing with the revenue officer and

158
00:09:38.039 --> 00:09:40.320
you're saying, hey, I can't afford to make any payments,

159
00:09:40.639 --> 00:09:43.120
I can't afford this, I can't afford to pay the debt.

160
00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:46.440
Whatever it may be, that little bit of a payment

161
00:09:46.480 --> 00:09:50.559
out there makes it a little bit simpler to do it. Hey,

called Taxations Solutions dot net at eight eight eight nine

196
00:11:59.639 --> 00:12:03.120
ruining my life. IRS has taken everything out of my

bank account. IRS has garnished my wages or garnished social security.

198
00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:13.240
The IRS is reading lentless when it comes to collections,

199
00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:15.799
Why do you think they're the biggest, baddest collection agency

200
00:12:15.840 --> 00:12:20.840
in the world. You know they have intrusive calls, terrifying

201
00:12:20.919 --> 00:12:23.919
notices in the mail. I mean when you open those letters,

202
00:12:23.960 --> 00:12:27.799
you're terrified. Some of them don't even open them, threatening messages.

203
00:12:29.080 --> 00:12:35.440
You know what's really unsettling to me to taxpayers out

204
00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:40.440
there they're getting these letters, is how much power they

205
00:12:40.480 --> 00:12:45.480
can legally hold over you, your finances, your career, your life.

206
00:12:45.799 --> 00:12:50.080
And every day you fail to act, they're throwing more

207
00:12:50.200 --> 00:12:53.679
and more fees pen on these interests. And you don't

208
00:12:53.720 --> 00:12:58.159

getting the IRS to leave you alone, to get you

226
00:14:10.240 --> 00:14:14.759
the solution you qualify for, so to get penalties abated,

227
00:14:14.799 --> 00:14:18.879
to maybe get the tax reduced, maybe to get it

228
00:14:18.919 --> 00:14:22.200
eliminated all together. So you know, what are your options

229
00:14:22.440 --> 00:14:25.080
at the end of the day, that's the question, what's

230
00:14:25.080 --> 00:14:30.279
my option? What's my option for solution to my tax debt?

231
00:14:30.600 --> 00:14:33.320
When I owe the IRS? Now, it doesn't matter how

232
00:14:33.360 --> 00:14:36.879
much money, you know, whether it's one thousand, two thousand,

233
00:14:36.840 --> 00:14:41.159
and ten thousand and twenty fifty, one hundred thousand, a million,

234
00:14:41.559 --> 00:14:45.360
two million, there's a solution for you. And you could

235
00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:47.679
owe more than that, there's a solution for you. And

236
00:14:47.759 --> 00:14:54.759
the IRS Revenue Manual provides several different options depending on

237
00:14:54.919 --> 00:14:58.879
your financial situation. So the first one short term payment

238
00:14:58.879 --> 00:15:02.679
plan or ASK will actually grant you up to one

239
00:15:02.759 --> 00:15:07.759
hundred and eighty days pay the full balance. Now, any

240
00:15:07.879 --> 00:15:12.279
interest or penalties will still apply and still occur during

241
00:15:12.279 --> 00:15:15.399
that one hundred and eighty days. They won't give you

242
00:15:15.440 --> 00:15:17.639
the full hundred and eighty days. If you've already had

243
00:15:17.679 --> 00:15:20.480
holds in place for thirty or sixty days, they will

244
00:15:20.480 --> 00:15:23.519
subtract that out of that hold. Sometimes we've been able

245
00:15:23.559 --> 00:15:25.080
to get them to give us the full hundred and

246
00:15:25.120 --> 00:15:27.840
eighty days, especially if we can prove that you're going

247
00:15:27.879 --> 00:15:30.200
after a loan or a mortgage or something like that,

248
00:15:30.480 --> 00:15:33.000
then you can pay it off within that one hundred

249
00:15:33.000 --> 00:15:37.039
and eighty days. But you're still going to be accruing interest,

250
00:15:37.120 --> 00:15:39.919
you're going to be accruing the penalties on the money

251
00:15:39.919 --> 00:15:43.440
that you owe, So it'll be more money than what

252
00:15:43.840 --> 00:15:45.919
we put hold in place for the one hundred and

253
00:15:45.960 --> 00:15:48.879
eighty days. But it does offer you a solution. So

254
00:15:49.000 --> 00:15:51.960
maybe you're going after, you know, a second mortgage, or

255
00:15:52.759 --> 00:15:54.399
maybe you're borrowing money out of your four O one

256
00:15:54.480 --> 00:15:57.519
K to pay something off. This is an option and

257
00:15:57.759 --> 00:15:59.799
you can do that while you're waiting for the money.

258
00:15:59.799 --> 00:16:02.440
The holds their irs isn't going to take anything out

259
00:16:02.480 --> 00:16:05.759
of your account, so it does give you the option

260
00:16:06.360 --> 00:16:09.559
there on what you you know, to pay it off

261
00:16:09.759 --> 00:16:14.279
in full over that hundred eighty days. The other option

262
00:16:14.440 --> 00:16:16.919
that they give you is a long term payment plan,

263
00:16:17.200 --> 00:16:20.759
their installment agreement. It allows you to make monthly payments

264
00:16:21.240 --> 00:16:25.360
up to seventy two months and slatch it much longer

265
00:16:25.360 --> 00:16:28.879
than one hundred and eighty days of course, so up

266
00:16:28.879 --> 00:16:32.519
to seventy two months, and you can either go in

267
00:16:32.559 --> 00:16:36.559
and apply that online if you owe less than fifty thousand,

268
00:16:37.759 --> 00:16:39.960
but it's going to be a full pay plan. They're

269
00:16:39.960 --> 00:16:41.559
going to tell you how much they want and that's

270
00:16:41.559 --> 00:16:44.080
what you've got to pay. So if you can afford

271
00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:47.159
to pay it off over a full seventy two months,

272
00:16:47.480 --> 00:16:51.200
then you can take their offer and pay them the

273
00:16:51.240 --> 00:16:54.679
full amount over the course of seventy two months. Again,

274
00:16:55.120 --> 00:16:57.919
they're going to continue to accrue interest on this, they're

275
00:16:57.919 --> 00:17:01.600
going to continue to get you any penalties that they

276
00:17:01.600 --> 00:17:05.480
can hit you with. Still, if you fail in doing

277
00:17:05.880 --> 00:17:10.160
this long term payment plan anytime in the future, it

278
00:17:10.279 --> 00:17:12.799
kicks you out of the payment plan and then you

279
00:17:12.920 --> 00:17:17.079
have to go back in apply now. If you fail

280
00:17:17.160 --> 00:17:19.680
to make estimated tax payments then you have taxes do

281
00:17:19.839 --> 00:17:22.400
come April fifteenth, It could kick you out of this.

282
00:17:22.599 --> 00:17:23.960
Long term payment plan.

283
00:17:24.400 --> 00:17:27.920
If you fail to pay your taxes come in April fifteenth,

284
00:17:28.319 --> 00:17:32.480
Guess what They will kick you out of this payment arrangement.

285
00:17:32.759 --> 00:17:36.240
If you file an extension on your taxes and then

286
00:17:36.279 --> 00:17:39.720
you still owe money come October fifteenth when you file,

287
00:17:40.200 --> 00:17:42.839
guess what. You're right, they kick you out of that

288
00:17:42.880 --> 00:17:48.039
payment plan again. Still, if you don't file an extension

289
00:17:48.119 --> 00:17:51.200
and don't meet the deadline of April fifteenth, guess what

290
00:17:51.920 --> 00:17:55.240
they kick you out of that payment plan again. See

291
00:17:55.279 --> 00:17:59.440
every payment plan that they put in place requires full,

292
00:17:59.599 --> 00:18:04.400
complete alliance whole Compliance means filing and paying taxes and

293
00:18:04.440 --> 00:18:10.000
paying estimated taxes timely, filing your tax return timely, paying

294
00:18:10.039 --> 00:18:14.119
all the taxes that you have coming due by April fifteenth,

295
00:18:14.279 --> 00:18:18.599
not October fifteenth, Because remember that extension to file is

296
00:18:18.680 --> 00:18:22.160
only extension to file the tax return, not an extension

297
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:26.440
of time to pay. IRS does not offer an extension

298
00:18:26.480 --> 00:18:30.480
of time to pay. They only offer the extension of

299
00:18:30.599 --> 00:18:35.680
time to file. So if you're missing deadlines, whether it

300
00:18:35.759 --> 00:18:39.279
is your long term payment plan or a short term

301
00:18:39.319 --> 00:18:45.559
payment plan, compliance is still required of you. Now you

302
00:18:45.720 --> 00:18:49.359
just got done looking at this and you looked at

303
00:18:50.400 --> 00:18:53.720
how much money the IRS is requiring of you to pay,

304
00:18:54.240 --> 00:18:55.519
and you can't afford it.

305
00:18:56.000 --> 00:18:59.440
Now what to you? Well, there's still a couple of different.

306
00:18:59.200 --> 00:19:03.680
Options, possibly three different options you still have available to

307
00:19:03.880 --> 00:19:04.839
you to do.

308
00:19:05.480 --> 00:19:06.359
It could be a.

309
00:19:06.359 --> 00:19:09.599
Partial pay installment agreement, could be an offering compromis, or

310
00:19:09.599 --> 00:19:13.920
it could be non collectible status. So one of those

311
00:19:14.000 --> 00:19:18.279
three options is completely available to you, and we will

312
00:19:18.319 --> 00:19:22.000

Fallon.

347
00:21:31.640 --> 00:21:36.319
Hey, welcome back, got a message here a question fro

348
00:21:36.359 --> 00:21:41.400
him Al Al said he was dealing with the IRS

349
00:21:41.559 --> 00:21:44.759
revenue officer and they said he did not have a

350
00:21:44.880 --> 00:21:49.920
right to representation. Interesting, hey, Al, thanks, great question, because

351
00:21:49.960 --> 00:21:53.559
people dealing with the IRS sometimes the IRS says no,

352
00:21:53.680 --> 00:21:56.920
you don't need representation, and it can be interpreted that.

353
00:21:58.559 --> 00:21:59.799
You don't have a right to it.

354
00:22:00.200 --> 00:22:04.119
Well, the IRS actually has a taxpayer bill of rights

355
00:22:04.519 --> 00:22:07.640
and you have in that bill of rights it's the

356
00:22:07.839 --> 00:22:12.759
right to retain representation. Now, when you retain us to

357
00:22:12.839 --> 00:22:17.079
be a representative, your power of attorney, we actually step

358
00:22:17.200 --> 00:22:20.880
into your boots and deal with the IRS directly. You

359
00:22:21.000 --> 00:22:24.279
don't get to deal with the IRS. They don't get

360
00:22:24.319 --> 00:22:28.160
to call you unless we are failing to truly represent

361
00:22:28.279 --> 00:22:31.759
you by not answering their questions or not getting information

362
00:22:31.960 --> 00:22:34.880
or not calling them back. That doesn't happen here at Texas,

363
00:22:34.960 --> 00:22:39.279
and we are very aggressive to go after the IRS

364
00:22:39.400 --> 00:22:42.759
and find the best solution for you. We take it

365
00:22:42.839 --> 00:22:46.400
upon ourselves to move through this as quick as possible,

366
00:22:46.799 --> 00:22:50.039
but we also need your help. So if you're delaying us,

367
00:22:50.480 --> 00:22:54.240
then you and I will have that conversation. If it's

368
00:22:54.440 --> 00:22:58.000
the revenue officer not wanting to deal with us, we

369
00:22:58.079 --> 00:23:00.559
will go above their head and work to the manager,

370
00:23:00.880 --> 00:23:03.799
so we will find the solution and move this thing

371
00:23:04.200 --> 00:23:07.319
through as quick as possible. Now, you also have other

372
00:23:07.400 --> 00:23:09.759
rights in this Bill of rights, and the right to

373
00:23:09.759 --> 00:23:13.519
be informed, the right to quality service that's kind of funny,

374
00:23:14.079 --> 00:23:16.440
the right to pay no more than the correct amount

375
00:23:16.519 --> 00:23:20.279
of tax, the right to challenge the i r S's position,

376
00:23:21.039 --> 00:23:25.839
right to appeal in IRS decision, right to finality, right

377
00:23:25.880 --> 00:23:30.240
to privacy, right to confidentiality of course, the right to representation,

378
00:23:30.640 --> 00:23:31.799
and the right to affair.

379
00:23:31.920 --> 00:23:33.359
And just tax system.

380
00:23:33.440 --> 00:23:36.680
Nobody ever that I've talked to you feels like the

381
00:23:36.720 --> 00:23:41.519
system is right, is the system fair? And is the

382
00:23:41.519 --> 00:23:45.319
system just? Now anyway, we're going to dedicate a show

383
00:23:45.359 --> 00:23:47.079
to the Bill of Rights. Maybe we'll do that next

384
00:23:47.079 --> 00:23:49.759
week so that we can talk about what are your

385
00:23:49.880 --> 00:23:52.960
rights when you owe the I r S money? But

386
00:23:53.640 --> 00:23:57.119
what we're talking about today is your solution to your

387

401
00:24:48.880 --> 00:24:53.720
here are other options. Installment agreements martiall pay installment agreements.

402
00:24:53.839 --> 00:24:58.680
This is a really nice one. So partial pay means

403
00:24:58.720 --> 00:25:00.799
you're not going to pay the full mount to you're

404
00:25:00.799 --> 00:25:02.960
going to pay less than the amount of two. This

405
00:25:03.119 --> 00:25:06.559
usually comes up because you can only afford so much

406
00:25:06.599 --> 00:25:10.640
to be paid each month based on your financial situation,

407
00:25:10.839 --> 00:25:13.200
based on the four point thirty three that gets submitted

408
00:25:13.279 --> 00:25:16.759
to the revenue agent or the revenue officer that we're

409
00:25:16.759 --> 00:25:20.480
dealing with. That proves to them that you can't afford

410
00:25:20.519 --> 00:25:24.240
to pay a large amount on this tax debt and

411
00:25:24.720 --> 00:25:28.359
this payment will run over a number of months that

412
00:25:28.400 --> 00:25:32.319
are left in the statue of limitations and any statutes

413
00:25:32.440 --> 00:25:36.599
that run out over the period of time the debt

414
00:25:36.680 --> 00:25:40.119
falls off. So when we talk about statute of limitations,

415
00:25:40.200 --> 00:25:41.559
we're doing a tax analysis.

416
00:25:41.599 --> 00:25:42.400
We're looking at.

417
00:25:42.279 --> 00:25:45.640
How old the tax debt. So if you file the return. Now,

418
00:25:45.839 --> 00:25:51.160
let's say you file the return in April of twenty sixteen,

419
00:25:51.839 --> 00:25:55.519
and that tax debt has a life of ten years,

420
00:25:55.759 --> 00:26:02.400
so come April of twenty six that tax debt will

421
00:26:02.519 --> 00:26:05.960
fall off. So maybe we can delay out of there.

422
00:26:06.039 --> 00:26:07.960
But maybe we just got to put in this partial

423
00:26:07.960 --> 00:26:11.039
pay installment agreement in place, and you have other debts,

424
00:26:11.559 --> 00:26:14.160
and so we can put in a payment plan that

425
00:26:14.279 --> 00:26:18.640
you can afford and it runs for the life of

426
00:26:18.680 --> 00:26:21.519
the debts out there after seventy two months, but it

427
00:26:21.559 --> 00:26:26.000
would be where it's a smaller payment and the debt.

428
00:26:25.839 --> 00:26:26.480
Will fall off.

429
00:26:26.480 --> 00:26:28.599
So a lot of times we take somebody that owes,

430
00:26:29.759 --> 00:26:35.519
you know, maybe taxes from fifteen sixteen, seventeen eighteen, and

431
00:26:35.599 --> 00:26:39.039
then you know, twenty two, twenty four or twenty six

432
00:26:39.200 --> 00:26:41.799
or something like that, and they have debt that's falling

433
00:26:41.839 --> 00:26:45.839
off periodically over the next two or three years. Well,

434
00:26:45.880 --> 00:26:48.680
if we can arrange this payment plan, right, you may

435
00:26:48.720 --> 00:26:51.680
have two or three years of debt falling off while

436
00:26:51.759 --> 00:26:55.960
you're making these payments over the next you know, seven years.

437
00:26:56.359 --> 00:26:59.440
If you got six years and you've got current debt,

438
00:26:59.680 --> 00:27:03.279
that's how out there, but it's less than the full amount,

439
00:27:03.359 --> 00:27:06.880
so you see debt fall off. We've taken some clients

440
00:27:06.920 --> 00:27:08.880
who've owned quite a bit of money and put them

441
00:27:08.880 --> 00:27:14.119
on a partial pay installment agreement and had them see

442
00:27:14.519 --> 00:27:17.559
debt falling off, you know, quite a bit. We've also

443
00:27:17.599 --> 00:27:20.200
worked with some clients where we've actually put them into

444
00:27:20.799 --> 00:27:23.799
a non collectible status and debt has fallen off over

445
00:27:24.799 --> 00:27:29.039
a few months or years as well. Now, just because

446
00:27:29.240 --> 00:27:32.519
you know statute limitations runs ten years, does not mean

447
00:27:32.599 --> 00:27:36.559
that debt falls off after actually ten years, because there

448
00:27:36.559 --> 00:27:39.240
are delays that put in that stop the statute of

449
00:27:39.279 --> 00:27:42.079
limitations run it, such as filing an offer and compromise

450
00:27:42.799 --> 00:27:46.640
such as filing a partial pay installment agreement while they're

451
00:27:46.640 --> 00:27:51.640
processing it delays statute of limitations. So there are other

452
00:27:51.720 --> 00:27:56.519
things collective due process hearings that can delay your statute

453
00:27:56.519 --> 00:28:00.279
of limitations running out. But it is an option, so

454
00:28:00.319 --> 00:28:05.240
that partial pay installment agreement sometimes is better than what

455
00:28:05.319 --> 00:28:07.680
you hear about on the radio all the time. Offering

456
00:28:07.720 --> 00:28:12.960
compromise and like that. So we look at all available

457
00:28:13.039 --> 00:28:17.559
options to you to get you the right solution to

458
00:28:17.960 --> 00:28:22.000
your tax problem. Now, before we get into offering compromise,

459
00:28:22.599 --> 00:28:25.759
in all the requirements and everything else that you have

460
00:28:26.279 --> 00:28:29.759
to do with an offering compromise, let's talk about non

461
00:28:29.799 --> 00:28:34.319
collectible status if and remember all these things are If

462
00:28:34.680 --> 00:28:39.119
the IRS determines that you can't afford to pay, you

463
00:28:39.119 --> 00:28:42.279
get a partial pay installment agreement, or if the IRS

464
00:28:42.279 --> 00:28:44.960
determines you can afford to pay it, you get a

465
00:28:44.960 --> 00:28:49.039
full payment plan. If the IRS determines you cannot pay

466
00:28:49.599 --> 00:28:53.759
your basic living expenses and the tax debtits the same time,

467
00:28:54.279 --> 00:29:00.039
they may temporarily delay collection effort. Now, that does not

468
00:29:00.720 --> 00:29:03.799
in any way, shape or form go away, does not

469
00:29:04.119 --> 00:29:09.160
end your debt problem, but it does end your collection problem.

470
00:29:09.480 --> 00:29:14.000
Interest and penalties are going to continue to approve, but

471
00:29:14.319 --> 00:29:19.519
active collections is suspended, and still your financial condition improoves. Now,

472
00:29:19.839 --> 00:29:26.039
who determines when your financial condition improves? I know IRS

473
00:29:26.440 --> 00:29:28.759
many times we put them in nine collectible status. That

474
00:29:28.799 --> 00:29:30.799
means you're going to stay there for probably two years.

475
00:29:30.960 --> 00:29:35.079
You could stay there longer. If when you're filing your taxes,

476
00:29:35.119 --> 00:29:39.440
your financial situation hasn't changed at all, or maybe gotten worse,

477
00:29:39.519 --> 00:29:42.519
or your income hasn't gotten any better. But if the

478
00:29:42.559 --> 00:29:47.920
IRS sees an influx of income, an influx of taxable income,

479
00:29:48.440 --> 00:29:51.880
then the IRS could determine they want to relook at it,

480
00:29:52.119 --> 00:29:55.319
reopen it. Generally, we tell people, hey, this is going

481
00:29:55.359 --> 00:30:00.440
to last for at least two years, sometimes longer. Sometimes

482
00:30:00.440 --> 00:30:02.839
we can get you through a couple of years of

483
00:30:02.880 --> 00:30:05.920
statute of limitations, or maybe we can get you through

484
00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:09.519
the period of time that we need to get you

485
00:30:09.559 --> 00:30:13.960
through to reset your life out there, so you do

486
00:30:14.319 --> 00:30:17.839
have the options out there to be into a non

487
00:30:17.960 --> 00:30:22.720
collectible status. But again it's you've got to be able

488
00:30:22.720 --> 00:30:25.440
to prove. We've got to be able to prove to

489
00:30:25.720 --> 00:30:30.720
the IRS that you cannot meet your current basic living

490
00:30:30.920 --> 00:30:35.279
expenses and pay tax debt at the same time. So

491
00:30:35.359 --> 00:30:38.200
sometimes there's hurdles we've got to get over to make

492
00:30:38.519 --> 00:30:41.319
this work for you and make it simple.

493
00:30:41.799 --> 00:30:42.799
Which way is right?

494
00:30:43.359 --> 00:30:45.720
Is that offering compromise that we're going to talk about

495
00:30:45.799 --> 00:30:49.039
next the right way to go? We will determine that

496
00:30:49.559 --> 00:30:53.680
with you. Hey, again, if you're a trucker owner operator, Hey,

tax stock for you with more tax stock once again,

516
00:32:06.240 --> 00:32:11.039
here's your host, Barry G. Ballum.

517
00:32:11.279 --> 00:32:14.720
Hey, welcome back. Kind of question that came in through

518
00:32:15.759 --> 00:32:19.720
one of our Facebook pages. Here is through Jeff and

519
00:32:19.920 --> 00:32:24.599
Taxpayer Advocates Service helped me with an offer and compromise well.

520
00:32:25.000 --> 00:32:29.559
Taxpayer Advocate Service. You access them through filing a form

521
00:32:29.599 --> 00:32:33.799
called nine one one. It's an independent organization within the

522
00:32:33.839 --> 00:32:38.559
IRS that can assist you if you're experiencing financial difficulty

523
00:32:38.680 --> 00:32:42.079
or other problems that normal IRS channels can't resolve. Now,

524
00:32:42.400 --> 00:32:44.359
they're not going to do an offering compromise for you.

525
00:32:44.720 --> 00:32:48.799
If there's a problem with it, or maybe the IRS

526
00:32:48.839 --> 00:32:52.200
pulled money out of your bank account while the offerers

527
00:32:52.240 --> 00:32:56.519
out there pending, Taxpayer Advocate Service can help you with

528
00:32:56.640 --> 00:33:00.400
that and get solutions. Sometimes you have offered that have

529
00:33:00.440 --> 00:33:03.400
been pending for a long period of time and you

530
00:33:03.440 --> 00:33:06.000
need somebody to do it and nobody's answering you. They

531
00:33:06.079 --> 00:33:08.480
might be able to help you. That's what kind of

532
00:33:08.519 --> 00:33:11.880
they're there for, is to help you from that situation.

533
00:33:13.079 --> 00:33:15.279
We've used tax Payer Have a Kid service to help

534
00:33:15.319 --> 00:33:20.640
our clients when we're hitting a roadblock with some decisions

535
00:33:20.640 --> 00:33:23.519
that are being made and we need somebody else's input

536
00:33:23.920 --> 00:33:26.440
and help on that. But you can go to the

537
00:33:26.440 --> 00:33:29.680
Taxpayer Have a Kid website and see what all they

538
00:33:29.720 --> 00:33:31.880
can do for you. But no, they're not going to

539
00:33:31.880 --> 00:33:33.680
put a payment plan in place. They're not going to

540
00:33:33.680 --> 00:33:35.480
do an offering compromise. They're not going to put you

541
00:33:35.519 --> 00:33:38.880
in non collectible status. They don't do that. That is

542
00:33:39.000 --> 00:33:46.319
not a service that they offer. And see, have a question.

543
00:33:46.079 --> 00:33:48.960
That just came in. Actually no name on this.

544
00:33:48.920 --> 00:33:53.880
One, but you're out of baton rouge. Can I just

545
00:33:53.960 --> 00:33:57.640
hire any company because I've heard this tax relief company

546
00:33:57.720 --> 00:34:02.920
saying they could eliminate all my tax debt right away. Well,

547
00:34:02.960 --> 00:34:04.799
first of all, I'm gonna tell you be skeptical. Anybody

548
00:34:04.839 --> 00:34:07.880
that tells you without talking to you, without gathering financial

549
00:34:07.880 --> 00:34:11.760
information from you, without maybe even doing a tax analysis

550
00:34:11.800 --> 00:34:15.199
out there, just promoting and saying, hey, we can eliminate

551
00:34:15.239 --> 00:34:19.400
your tax debt, it's just an outlinish claim. I mean,

552
00:34:19.440 --> 00:34:23.119
they can't make that determination. One IRS is the only

553
00:34:23.159 --> 00:34:27.639
one that determines what you qualify for based on their rules.

554
00:34:28.039 --> 00:34:32.559
But we guide what the IRS is going to tell

555
00:34:32.599 --> 00:34:35.599
you you're going to qualify for, because we can prequalify

556
00:34:35.719 --> 00:34:38.800
you and know exactly what the solution is we're going

557
00:34:38.840 --> 00:34:41.320
to put in place. Now, if you're lying to us

558
00:34:41.440 --> 00:34:44.280
or not telling us everything, or hiding things from us,

559
00:34:44.840 --> 00:34:49.639
or being very vague, that help sometimes is a lot

560
00:34:49.679 --> 00:34:52.719
harder to give because we're not gathering all the information.

561
00:34:53.199 --> 00:34:55.960
And you've got to remember, no matter what solution you

562
00:34:55.960 --> 00:34:58.519
put in place, if you are committing fraud to the

563
00:34:58.559 --> 00:35:03.719
IRS and not fling everything, the IRS is the largest, biggest,

564
00:35:03.760 --> 00:35:07.239
baddest collection agency in the world. So therefore they will

565
00:35:07.280 --> 00:35:10.559
find it out. Now, let's talk about offers and compromise.

566
00:35:10.920 --> 00:35:15.679
You know, according to Radio, according to a lot of

567
00:35:15.679 --> 00:35:20.760
our competitors' websites, everybody qualifies for an offering compromise.

568
00:35:21.599 --> 00:35:22.320
Not true.

569
00:35:22.599 --> 00:35:26.880
Unfortunately, if you are determined that you can pay, you're

570
00:35:26.960 --> 00:35:31.719
going to be on a long term payment plan or

571
00:35:31.880 --> 00:35:36.559
a partial pay installment agreement. One of those be what

572
00:35:36.679 --> 00:35:38.480
you are. As a matter of fact, you could even

573
00:35:38.519 --> 00:35:41.599
go long term and do a step plan where hey,

574
00:35:41.719 --> 00:35:43.920
right now, for the first year, we're at this amount,

575
00:35:44.000 --> 00:35:47.239
and then we step up to a higher amount that

576
00:35:47.360 --> 00:35:52.320
becomes a full pay installment agreement. HIGHRS does that as well,

577
00:35:52.480 --> 00:35:57.159
because you're basically committing and giving an opportunity to readjust

578
00:35:57.239 --> 00:35:59.199
things in your life made it pay off a vehicle

579
00:35:59.280 --> 00:36:02.119
or something that allows you to pay more on the

580
00:36:02.159 --> 00:36:04.760
tax debt a year down the road, and they give

581
00:36:04.800 --> 00:36:07.639
you that opportionnity to be able to do that. Well,

582
00:36:07.760 --> 00:36:12.679
it's still a full pay, but offering compromise can allow

583
00:36:12.760 --> 00:36:16.480
you to settle tax debt for less than the full

584
00:36:16.559 --> 00:36:21.480
amount if and only if the IRS determines you are

585
00:36:21.559 --> 00:36:25.880
unable to pay the full liability or it'll create a

586
00:36:26.000 --> 00:36:29.559
huge financial hardship. Now we look at these things and

587
00:36:29.599 --> 00:36:35.519
way these out because sometimes achieving this lowering the tax

588
00:36:35.559 --> 00:36:38.000
that you're going to pay can be done in the

589
00:36:38.000 --> 00:36:40.599
same way with a partial pay installment agreement over a

590
00:36:40.599 --> 00:36:43.719
longer period of time, and you eliminate the same amount

591
00:36:43.920 --> 00:36:47.639
or more debt with it than an offering compromise. Offering

592
00:36:47.719 --> 00:36:51.280
compromise comes with a lot of rules and regulations that

593
00:36:51.320 --> 00:36:55.440
go with it. When you're looking at the offering compromise

594
00:36:55.480 --> 00:36:59.360
that everybody considers, I am in a financial hardship if

595
00:36:59.360 --> 00:37:03.079
I've got to make this payment. Well, just because it

596
00:37:03.119 --> 00:37:06.920
puts you in a financial hardship in your lifestyle, it's

597
00:37:07.119 --> 00:37:12.800
not necessarily the lifestyle the IRS allows under their national standards.

598
00:37:13.320 --> 00:37:15.199
We've had people that have home payments that have four

599
00:37:15.280 --> 00:37:17.639
or five thousand dollars a month home payments, but the

600
00:37:17.920 --> 00:37:21.760
IRS only allows maybe two thousand.

601
00:37:22.000 --> 00:37:23.159
Well, the other.

602
00:37:23.079 --> 00:37:26.039
Couple thousand that you have to pay on your home

603
00:37:26.679 --> 00:37:29.400
isn't allowed, So therefore that's money that's available to the

604
00:37:29.440 --> 00:37:32.760
IRS to pay that can kick you out or make

605
00:37:32.880 --> 00:37:35.679
your offer be much higher than you can afford to

606
00:37:35.719 --> 00:37:39.880
pay over the offer period of time, which could be

607
00:37:39.920 --> 00:37:42.800
five months or twenty four months, depending on which and

608
00:37:42.880 --> 00:37:44.280
you may not be able to do it, may not

609
00:37:44.280 --> 00:37:45.559
be able to borrow the money. You may not be

610
00:37:45.559 --> 00:37:49.400
able to make it work. IRS is going to look

611
00:37:49.599 --> 00:37:54.559
at your income, your expenses, your assets, the equity in

612
00:37:54.639 --> 00:38:00.000
those assets when they evaluate your application. Now equity and assets.

613
00:38:00.480 --> 00:38:04.039
You own a home. Your home is greatly appreciated. So

614
00:38:04.159 --> 00:38:06.599
maybe you buy your own for two hundred thousand, it's

615
00:38:06.679 --> 00:38:10.480
now worth four hundred thousand, and your mortgage is only

616
00:38:10.559 --> 00:38:13.440
one hundred and sixty thousand, leaves you a lot of

617
00:38:13.480 --> 00:38:16.880
money to be able to pay THEIRS and the debt back.

618
00:38:17.360 --> 00:38:18.480
Even if the.

619
00:38:18.320 --> 00:38:23.119
IRS allows the firesale value at eighty percent, so eighty

620
00:38:23.239 --> 00:38:27.320
percent of four hundred thousand, then you take out your mortgage,

621
00:38:27.440 --> 00:38:29.880
there's still a lot of money there. There's still a

622
00:38:29.880 --> 00:38:31.960
lot of money. Three hundred and twenty minus one hundred

623
00:38:31.960 --> 00:38:34.039
and sixty still leaves you one hundred and sixty to

624
00:38:34.079 --> 00:38:39.960
pay to the IRS. According to THERS rules.

625
00:38:40.280 --> 00:38:41.320
Maybe that rules you out.

626
00:38:41.679 --> 00:38:44.159
Maybe you don't have good enough credit to go get

627
00:38:44.199 --> 00:38:47.519
a second mortgage on your house or a lot of

628
00:38:47.519 --> 00:38:48.840
credit on your house to.

629
00:38:48.840 --> 00:38:50.000
Pay the IRS pack.

630
00:38:50.360 --> 00:38:54.880
So now that offer isn't qualified. Maybe you have other

631
00:38:54.920 --> 00:38:57.440
assets that you don't want to sell, so maybe we

632
00:38:57.480 --> 00:38:59.519
need to go after this a different way in a

633
00:38:59.559 --> 00:39:03.480
partial or long term payment plan. Things you've got to

634
00:39:03.599 --> 00:39:07.000
look at, and then you've got to stay in compliance.

635
00:39:07.400 --> 00:39:10.440
Now you can go to the IRS Offering Compromise Preach

641
00:39:25.519 --> 00:39:28.239
Let's talk about it. Let's give you that free consultation.

642
00:39:28.719 --> 00:39:33.440
Help you make the decision what program you should be

643
00:39:33.559 --> 00:39:37.239
using to solve your tax debt once and for all

644
00:39:37.360 --> 00:39:41.199
with the IRS. Nope, all right, So the offering compromises

645
00:39:41.239 --> 00:39:43.719
the route you want to go. The offering compromises that

646
00:39:43.880 --> 00:39:47.239
thing you heard pipe dream out there that puts the

647
00:39:47.280 --> 00:39:51.880
solution in place that you're going to think is oh

648
00:39:52.000 --> 00:39:54.960
the be I'll end all. Then comes the rules. The

649
00:39:55.239 --> 00:40:00.960
moment that offer is filed, you are reques fired to

650
00:40:01.039 --> 00:40:05.039
stay one hundred percent in compliance. Now what does compliance mean.

651
00:40:05.519 --> 00:40:08.440
The first thing it means is that your estimated tax

652
00:40:08.440 --> 00:40:12.800
payments for this year are all current. So you make

653
00:40:12.840 --> 00:40:15.559
your first three payments if you're offering, or your estimated

654
00:40:15.599 --> 00:40:17.840
taxes for twenty twenty five, and then you have a

655
00:40:17.880 --> 00:40:20.719
new one to do in January, and you prove your

656
00:40:20.800 --> 00:40:23.199
not required to make them. Because once they get that offer,

657
00:40:23.239 --> 00:40:25.079
that's the first couple of things that are going to

658
00:40:25.119 --> 00:40:28.599
ask for. Second thing, you have to continue to make

659
00:40:28.639 --> 00:40:31.239
sure you make your estimated tax payments if required, every

660
00:40:31.360 --> 00:40:35.159
quarter during twenty twenty six. Third thing, when you file

661
00:40:35.199 --> 00:40:39.079
your twenty twenty five return on April fifteenth or extension,

662
00:40:39.440 --> 00:40:42.519
your taxes that would be due then have to be

663
00:40:42.559 --> 00:40:46.239
one hundred percent paid by April five and your first

664
00:40:46.480 --> 00:40:50.760
estimate paid by April fof didn't get those things accomplished,

665
00:40:51.079 --> 00:40:54.000
they just kicked your offer back. You just wasted your

666
00:40:54.000 --> 00:40:57.400
time and your money. Then let's say you make it

667
00:40:57.480 --> 00:40:59.800
down this road, and your income all of a sudden

668
00:40:59.800 --> 00:41:02.599
it on up over the last eight months while this

669
