19
00:00:58.960 --> 00:01:05.680
Barry G. Thoul Hey, welcome, great Monday morning. I hope

20
00:01:05.680 --> 00:01:09.400
everybody had a good weekend. Get something done around the

21
00:01:09.439 --> 00:01:12.439
house or the ranch or the farm, or whatever you

22
00:01:12.599 --> 00:01:18.120
do with your weekends. Family time boating whatever it may be.

23
00:01:18.519 --> 00:01:23.840
We got so much rain between Thursday, Friday, Saturday or

24
00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:28.560
at the ranch that we might as well have been voating.

25
00:01:29.640 --> 00:01:33.239
Pond was new pond we had. We've been waiting for

26
00:01:33.560 --> 00:01:36.159
a lot of water while we got excess for water.

27
00:01:36.359 --> 00:01:39.840
It was overflowing, so we almost needed the canoe to

28
00:01:39.879 --> 00:01:43.599
get through the pastures and everything out there. But in

29
00:01:43.719 --> 00:01:47.120
the chickens we had, as I was telling our producer here,

30
00:01:47.200 --> 00:01:50.599
they became fish over the weekend having to swim through

31
00:01:51.319 --> 00:01:56.959
ponding water. So I spent most of Sunday morning filling

32
00:01:57.040 --> 00:02:02.040
in the holes and replenishing the chicken runs and get

33
00:02:02.040 --> 00:02:04.480
the chickens out of the water before they actually had

34
00:02:04.519 --> 00:02:09.280
to start learning to swim. So busy weekend, but you

35
00:02:09.319 --> 00:02:10.759
know we get to come back here and we get

36
00:02:10.800 --> 00:02:15.280
to talk about taxes, and you know today's episode. You know, hey,

37
00:02:15.319 --> 00:02:20.439
we're talking about irs installment agreements. You know, you can

38
00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:23.479
pay your tax debt, and if you can afford to

39
00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:28.080
pay your tax debt in full today, man, I recommend

40
00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:30.199
you just pay it. Get rid of those penalties and

41
00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:34.360
interest that maybe a crew in on. You get it done.

42
00:02:34.439 --> 00:02:38.080
Don't go into an installment agreement, just pay the threaded

43
00:02:38.240 --> 00:02:40.840
irs off. I mean, when you own money, they're going

44
00:02:40.919 --> 00:02:43.719
to put liens on your property, liens on any equipment

45
00:02:43.800 --> 00:02:46.400
you may have. If you're owing money for your business,

46
00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:51.680
you know they're going to protect their interest in everything

47
00:02:51.719 --> 00:02:55.520
that you own. And when that becomes the case, it's

48
00:02:55.599 --> 00:02:57.680
kind of like putting handcuffs on you. I mean, you

49
00:02:57.719 --> 00:02:59.759
can't sell your house, you can't sell your business, you

50
00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:05.719
can any assets because what they have that lean on you.

51
00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:09.479
And if it becomes really really bad, just like last

52
00:03:09.479 --> 00:03:11.960
week's episode we were talking about levies and what they

53
00:03:11.960 --> 00:03:15.280
can take with the i r S feels the need

54
00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:19.280
to protect, and that need to protect is putting those

55
00:03:19.319 --> 00:03:22.400
lians on or putting those levees on. So you know,

56
00:03:22.719 --> 00:03:25.039
if you do get it into an installment agreement and

57
00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:28.400
all of a sudden you fail and you have money available,

58
00:03:28.800 --> 00:03:33.240
they're coming. You know, the meanest vicious election agency in

59
00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:38.199
the world is who you're dealing with. You know, So

60
00:03:38.800 --> 00:03:41.840
payment plans are are way out now. You know, there

61
00:03:41.840 --> 00:03:44.680
are different types of payment plans and different things that

62
00:03:44.800 --> 00:03:48.240
the i r S allows you to do when you

63
00:03:48.400 --> 00:03:52.520
establish a payment plan, but you know the first requirement

64
00:03:52.719 --> 00:03:55.400
they have is for you to be in compliance, and

65
00:03:55.680 --> 00:03:58.120
compliance to you and me and compliance to the i

66
00:03:58.319 --> 00:04:04.080
R S are two probably totally different things. So what

67
00:04:04.240 --> 00:04:07.919
does compliance mean? We got to start from their compliance

68
00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:13.120
first means all tax returns are filed. So if you're

69
00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:17.879
missing one from let's say twenty four or twenty twenty

70
00:04:18.279 --> 00:04:21.480
or twenty nineteen, you know they're going to say, hey,

71
00:04:22.040 --> 00:04:26.120
you need to file these tax returns before we'll offer

72
00:04:26.240 --> 00:04:28.839
you a payment plan. Now, if you haven't filed, and

73
00:04:28.920 --> 00:04:32.480
maybe the IRS did a SFR substitute for a return,

74
00:04:32.920 --> 00:04:35.279
so if you haven't accepted it, they consider it to

75
00:04:35.319 --> 00:04:37.839
be not filed, but yet they're trying to collect tax

76
00:04:37.879 --> 00:04:40.120
on it. So you need to get that return filed,

77
00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:45.160
and filing that return may correct excess tax the IRS

78
00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:48.839
is trying to collect. So that's why you know, at

79
00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:53.279
Taxation Solutions we go through and do a complete tax

80
00:04:53.319 --> 00:04:57.079
analysis to determine why the IRS is saying you owe

81
00:04:57.079 --> 00:05:01.000
this money, you know, and why the or maybe returns

82
00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:03.839
that are not filed. Maybe you've mailed it in and

83
00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:07.360
you've you've filed it, but they haven't processed it yet.

84
00:05:07.639 --> 00:05:09.519
We've got to get it processed. We got to get

85
00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:12.839
that complete, so you know, people have to mail in

86
00:05:12.879 --> 00:05:16.079
returns if a return is older than three years. So

87
00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:19.639
right now we can electronically file twenty fives, twenty fours,

88
00:05:19.639 --> 00:05:22.560
and twenty threes, but anything before that has to be

89
00:05:22.639 --> 00:05:26.920
mailed in and then it takes the IRS lots of

90
00:05:27.079 --> 00:05:31.399
time the process that manual return. I know, the question

91
00:05:31.519 --> 00:05:35.439
goes and says all the time, why can't the IRS

92
00:05:35.560 --> 00:05:39.000
take these older returns electronically? They were accepting the way

93
00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:43.279
back then for whatever reason, their system only takes the

94
00:05:43.439 --> 00:05:46.720
three years to accident. Then we just kind of grant

95
00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:49.879
and buried and then wait for them to process. Now,

96
00:05:49.920 --> 00:05:52.560
what else does compliance mean? Well, the other part of

97
00:05:52.639 --> 00:05:56.879
compliance is that you've made your estimated tax payment. So

98
00:05:57.680 --> 00:06:01.639
if you have to pay or required to pay estimated

99
00:06:01.720 --> 00:06:04.480
tax payments in then you've got to be up to

100
00:06:04.600 --> 00:06:09.120
date for your estimated tax payments. Now the logical question

101
00:06:09.319 --> 00:06:12.680
is is how do you determine estimated tax payments? Well,

102
00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:15.480
the best way in the way the IRS is going

103
00:06:15.560 --> 00:06:19.240
to look at it first and foremost is based on

104
00:06:19.279 --> 00:06:22.839
your twenty twenty five tax return. How much money did

105
00:06:23.319 --> 00:06:28.800
you have in tax for twenty twenty five unless your

106
00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:32.480
normal withholding, so if you have w two pay you

107
00:06:32.480 --> 00:06:37.600
would subtract it from your normal withholding from your taxes

108
00:06:37.680 --> 00:06:42.199
that are due. They would also subtract any ongoing credits

109
00:06:42.240 --> 00:06:44.720
you may have for child tax credits or something like

110
00:06:44.759 --> 00:06:48.079
that that you may have out there, and so you

111
00:06:48.120 --> 00:06:50.639
can come down and say, hey, this is how much

112
00:06:50.800 --> 00:06:54.480
money that I would typically owe for the year, divided

113
00:06:54.560 --> 00:06:58.120
by four, and then that would be your quarterly estimated

114
00:06:58.160 --> 00:07:02.240
tax payments now are made April fifteenth. If you miss

115
00:07:02.279 --> 00:07:04.839
that one, you got to make it up June fifteenth.

116
00:07:04.879 --> 00:07:07.199
So we're coming up seven days away from when the

117
00:07:07.240 --> 00:07:09.920
next estimated tax payment is due. So you got to

118
00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:14.519
make that estimated tax payment. Then you're considered current on

119
00:07:14.639 --> 00:07:18.319
your estimated tax payment. Now, I know you're curious when's

120
00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:21.680
the next two quarterly payments due, because the IRS had

121
00:07:21.720 --> 00:07:26.759
those weird quarter. Its only been two months since the

122
00:07:26.800 --> 00:07:30.399
first one was due. You know, the next one is

123
00:07:30.399 --> 00:07:33.040
going to be due September fifteenth, and then the last

124
00:07:33.079 --> 00:07:36.040
one's due January fifth, So you do get to three

125
00:07:36.040 --> 00:07:40.360
to three after that, but it goes you know, April fifteenth,

126
00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:43.680
two months later. June fifteenth is the next one, so

127
00:07:43.800 --> 00:07:47.680
you're coming up on that. Now, let's say you didn't

128
00:07:47.720 --> 00:07:51.319
file your twenty twenty five tax return yet, and you

129
00:07:51.439 --> 00:07:55.519
didn't file on extension, you're not in compliance, all right,

130
00:07:56.160 --> 00:07:59.120
So you got to get that twenty twenty five tax return. Wow.

131
00:08:00.279 --> 00:08:04.439
And if you're going to did file the extension and

132
00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:07.160
you're going to file in October and you have a

133
00:08:07.399 --> 00:08:10.319
going to have a balance due, you better be ready

134
00:08:10.319 --> 00:08:13.040
to pay that balance come October fifteenth, because if you're

135
00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:17.279
not an instonement agreement you do today will be kicked

136
00:08:17.319 --> 00:08:21.959
out on October fifteenth. You don't want that to happen either.

137
00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:25.920
So you know, we talk about you know, hey, being

138
00:08:26.000 --> 00:08:29.759
in compliance with the IRS. Under the IRS's rules. Now,

139
00:08:29.800 --> 00:08:33.279
if you had a downturn in business, the IRS will

140
00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:39.840
accept proof that your business is less this year versus prior.

141
00:08:40.480 --> 00:08:45.840
Or if your businesses goes in cycles and maybe the

142
00:08:45.960 --> 00:08:50.000
first quarter or two you're really low, but yet you're

143
00:08:50.159 --> 00:08:54.080
really big in the final quarter or the final half

144
00:08:54.120 --> 00:08:57.200
of the year, and that's the way your business usually goes.

145
00:08:57.759 --> 00:09:01.480
We can do estimates based on actuals, but we've got

146
00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:04.879
to have financial statements to prove where your business is

147
00:09:04.919 --> 00:09:08.200
at today and how it's performed to be able to

148
00:09:09.000 --> 00:09:15.840
get the estimated tax payments that are due. Hey, Becky,

149
00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:20.759
great question. What are these quarterly taxes for? What are

150
00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:23.960
we paying? Is this business or personal? This is all personal.

151
00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:28.840
This is estimated tax payments for twenty twenty six, so

152
00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:32.200
that when you file your twenty twenty six return in

153
00:09:32.240 --> 00:09:37.440
April of next year, you have already prepaid all the taxes. Now,

154
00:09:38.080 --> 00:09:42.240
this is mainly for people that are operating businesses, or

155
00:09:42.600 --> 00:09:46.879
maybe you have a lot of investment income and you've

156
00:09:46.919 --> 00:09:51.799
got to pay estimated taxes because you're usually earning additional

157
00:09:51.879 --> 00:09:55.960
money or your withholding is never enough to cover the

158
00:09:56.000 --> 00:09:59.519
taxes that are due and you need to make some

159
00:09:59.679 --> 00:10:03.799
estimate tax payments every quarter from there. But a lot

160
00:10:03.840 --> 00:10:05.840
of this comes down as people that are running small

161
00:10:05.879 --> 00:10:10.440
businesses or running businesses, whether it's on Schedule C or

162
00:10:10.480 --> 00:10:13.440
whether it's a K one coming over. This is all

163
00:10:13.519 --> 00:10:16.480
on the personal side. The only time you would pay

164
00:10:16.759 --> 00:10:19.879
estimated taxes for the business is if you are running

165
00:10:19.919 --> 00:10:23.159
a C corp and you file eleven twenty and then

166
00:10:23.360 --> 00:10:26.720
the business would owe tax and it would have requirement

167
00:10:26.799 --> 00:10:30.639
for some estimated tax payments as well. Hey, great question,

168
00:10:31.200 --> 00:10:33.679
and we love the questions that are coming in. Hey,

169
00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:37.279

170
00:10:37.399 --> 00:10:39.799

171
00:10:39.840 --> 00:10:42.360
as compliance goes. We're going to take a short break

172
00:10:42.399 --> 00:10:44.279
and when we come back, we're going to start talking

173
00:10:44.279 --> 00:10:47.240

189
00:11:57.080 --> 00:12:03.080
Feler. Welcome back. You know we're talking about installment agreements

190
00:12:03.200 --> 00:12:06.639
being in compliance and one of the things that we've

191
00:12:06.679 --> 00:12:08.840
been talking about in the first segment was being in

192
00:12:08.879 --> 00:12:13.080
compliance with estimated tax payments if you're required to make them.

193
00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:15.840
And again, you know, estimated tax payments are mostly for

194
00:12:15.919 --> 00:12:19.639
people that are running businesses or have a lot of

195
00:12:19.679 --> 00:12:25.200
investment income that they're not having withholding that would cover

196
00:12:25.320 --> 00:12:29.200
their taxes due. When we were talking about this, you know,

197
00:12:29.279 --> 00:12:31.879
one of the questions we had from Becky was, are these,

198
00:12:32.200 --> 00:12:35.320
you know, for business or personal? And you know, when

199
00:12:35.320 --> 00:12:38.840
we're looking at estimated tax payments, these are all mostly

200
00:12:38.879 --> 00:12:41.919
on the personal side, unless you're running that se court. Now,

201
00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:47.120
if you are a W two employee, typically you're not

202
00:12:47.240 --> 00:12:49.840
going to be required to have estimated tax payments, unless

203
00:12:49.879 --> 00:12:53.480
maybe you have an outside business that you're running, maybe

204
00:12:53.480 --> 00:12:55.720
you just running a little side business and you have

205
00:12:55.960 --> 00:12:58.799
income that you're going to pay taxes on, you may

206
00:12:58.879 --> 00:13:04.600
have requirement. Typically you're withholding on your W two paycheck

207
00:13:05.159 --> 00:13:08.679
should typically be enough to cover the taxes that you're

208
00:13:08.720 --> 00:13:12.679
going to pay, if not, sometimes a little bit excess. However,

209
00:13:12.759 --> 00:13:15.279
it depends on how you filled out your W four

210
00:13:15.879 --> 00:13:18.960
and if you're married, how they filled out their W four.

211
00:13:20.440 --> 00:13:23.679
Sometimes we've seen where there's not enough withholding on your

212
00:13:23.759 --> 00:13:26.360
W two paycheck. Because of the way those W fours

213
00:13:26.360 --> 00:13:30.159
are filled out, they can get somewhat complicated when you're

214
00:13:30.200 --> 00:13:33.440
filling out the form. And when they do get complicated

215
00:13:33.639 --> 00:13:39.399
like that, then typically you see mistakes where you don't

216
00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:43.639
have enough withholdings to cover and you should be making

217
00:13:43.799 --> 00:13:47.279
estimated tax payments or what you typically do. When you

218
00:13:47.320 --> 00:13:50.039
see that this isn't enough, you go back to your

219
00:13:50.080 --> 00:13:54.879
employer adjust your W two the W four withholdings to

220
00:13:55.000 --> 00:13:57.200
have them withhold a little bit more money so that

221
00:13:57.240 --> 00:14:01.799
you don't have taxes do come in April fifteenth. But

222
00:14:02.200 --> 00:14:04.879
the one thing I always recommend is that you know,

223
00:14:05.159 --> 00:14:06.960
get a good tax for prayer who's going to go

224
00:14:07.000 --> 00:14:10.440
through some of this stuff with you, and you know,

225
00:14:10.600 --> 00:14:15.879
make sure that you've got your basis covered and you're

226
00:14:15.879 --> 00:14:20.000
not having more withholding than the taxes that will probably do.

227
00:14:20.679 --> 00:14:23.000
Last thing anybody really wants to do is pay the

228
00:14:23.039 --> 00:14:26.840
government in more money than they're going to owe. You

229
00:14:26.879 --> 00:14:30.240
should be keeping that money and earning the interest income

230
00:14:30.399 --> 00:14:33.399
off of that. Although interest is relatively low, but if

231
00:14:33.440 --> 00:14:35.840
you put in a nice investment account and even do

232
00:14:35.919 --> 00:14:38.120
a money market you can earn you know, three percent

233
00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:41.559
or three point five percent one of those investment accounts

234
00:14:41.559 --> 00:14:45.000
and money market accounts, and that's better than not earning

235
00:14:45.039 --> 00:14:48.559
anything at all with its sitting at the irs, So

236
00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:52.159
you might want to do that. Oh, another question came

237
00:14:52.200 --> 00:14:56.799
in from Jansen. Hey appreciate the questions. When do people

238
00:14:57.000 --> 00:15:00.720
running a business have to start with the taxes quarters?

239
00:15:00.879 --> 00:15:03.279
And does this cover side hustle? So yes, you would

240
00:15:03.320 --> 00:15:06.559
cover your side hustle with this as well. So when

241
00:15:06.559 --> 00:15:09.879
you're doing your taxes, then you're going to see you

242
00:15:09.919 --> 00:15:12.639
know what your tax taxes are and how much your

243
00:15:12.639 --> 00:15:17.200
withholdings are and doesn't cover enough of your side hustle income.

244
00:15:17.720 --> 00:15:20.399
You can adjust your W two to cover your side

245
00:15:20.440 --> 00:15:23.320
hustle as well and not have to make orly estimated

246
00:15:23.360 --> 00:15:26.879
tax payments. But if you're running a business and you're

247
00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:29.240
going to have in that income, then you've got to

248
00:15:29.399 --> 00:15:33.039
really sit down and consider making estimated tax payment. Now,

249
00:15:33.279 --> 00:15:36.440
remember it's only going to be the required amount, so

250
00:15:36.879 --> 00:15:39.360
you know there's no penalties for not making estimated tax

251
00:15:39.360 --> 00:15:43.639
payments if there were none required. Now that requirement comes

252
00:15:43.679 --> 00:15:47.000
in based off of your twenty twenty five tax returns

253
00:15:47.000 --> 00:15:50.799
for twenty twenty six so whatever the tax is for

254
00:15:50.960 --> 00:15:54.679
that for twenty twenty five is what they're going to

255
00:15:54.759 --> 00:15:58.600
be using to determine whether you have estimated tax payments.

256
00:15:58.679 --> 00:16:03.200
So maybe if you were a W two employee in

257
00:16:03.279 --> 00:16:06.919
twenty five, but you became self employed in twenty twenty six,

258
00:16:07.559 --> 00:16:11.120
and you know, maybe you're doing and consulting and there's

259
00:16:11.159 --> 00:16:13.879
not a lot of expenses you're deducting and you're making

260
00:16:13.919 --> 00:16:17.120
good money, you would have to look at making your

261
00:16:17.240 --> 00:16:20.960
estimates off of the total amount of tax less any

262
00:16:20.960 --> 00:16:25.559
withholdings you may have, and that would be required estimates

263
00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:30.720
during twenty twenty six. Yeah, it being that you're starting

264
00:16:31.039 --> 00:16:35.600
out in business, so kind of be prepared, you know,

265
00:16:35.679 --> 00:16:38.799
for that when you're dealing with estimated tax pay stuff.

266
00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:44.639
Chelsea asked, do your businesses have those things like IRA's

267
00:16:44.720 --> 00:16:48.200
and four oh one ks. You can set up if

268
00:16:48.360 --> 00:16:51.559
for your business a solo four oh one K or

269
00:16:51.679 --> 00:16:55.480
an sep PAN plan as a simplified employee pension plan.

270
00:16:56.679 --> 00:16:59.360
If you have employees, everybody's got to be covered. So

271
00:16:59.399 --> 00:17:01.720
when you get those going and set up. We've got

272
00:17:01.720 --> 00:17:04.799
some great investment people that we can for you to

273
00:17:06.000 --> 00:17:08.599
set those things up for you and go through the

274
00:17:08.680 --> 00:17:11.920
rules of what you've got to do for your business

275
00:17:12.000 --> 00:17:15.599
and how you've got to offer that to any employees. Well,

276
00:17:16.079 --> 00:17:19.240
all right, payment plans with the i r S. When

277
00:17:19.319 --> 00:17:21.880
you owe the i r S. Again, like I said,

278
00:17:22.359 --> 00:17:24.680
you can afford to pay them off, pay them off,

279
00:17:25.200 --> 00:17:29.119
save the penalty, save the entrant, don't let that accrue

280
00:17:29.200 --> 00:17:33.119
any more than it has to. But if you can't afford,

281
00:17:33.720 --> 00:17:40.000
the IRS does payment plans. So you know, for you

282
00:17:40.279 --> 00:17:45.039
as an individual having a payment plan, it can be

283
00:17:45.160 --> 00:17:48.839
really simple. And you know if you you know how

284
00:17:48.880 --> 00:17:51.920
much depending on how much you owe, can depend on

285
00:17:51.960 --> 00:17:54.759
the difficulty of getting a payment plan. But no matter

286
00:17:54.799 --> 00:17:57.240
what you owe, if it's under one hundred thousand dollars,

287
00:17:58.279 --> 00:18:00.599
you can get into a short term payment plan. So

288
00:18:01.200 --> 00:18:02.960
short term payment plan is going to give you one

289
00:18:03.000 --> 00:18:05.359
hundred and eighty days to pay the full balance. There's

290
00:18:05.400 --> 00:18:10.119
no set of fee by the IRS, there is no

291
00:18:10.240 --> 00:18:13.799
financials needed, it's just your word. You're going to pay

292
00:18:13.799 --> 00:18:17.839
off the full balance in six months. And you know

293
00:18:17.880 --> 00:18:20.920
they're not going to stop penalties, they're not going to

294
00:18:20.960 --> 00:18:27.079
stop interest. Those things are still going to accrue regardless

295
00:18:27.440 --> 00:18:29.599
that you're in a payment plan now, they're not going

296
00:18:29.680 --> 00:18:32.839
to issue a lean against you or anything else. Because

297
00:18:32.880 --> 00:18:34.960
you're saying, hey, you're going to full pay now. They

298
00:18:35.000 --> 00:18:37.880
may have already done it and you it took a

299
00:18:37.960 --> 00:18:40.319
long time to request this one hundred and eighty day

300
00:18:40.400 --> 00:18:45.119
payment plan. But that being said, you know they're going

301
00:18:45.240 --> 00:18:47.960
to go ahead and give you that offer to be

302
00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:52.039
able to do it, and then you pay it off

303
00:18:52.160 --> 00:18:55.720
in that six months plus interest in penalty. But again,

304
00:18:55.759 --> 00:18:58.240
if you got the money, pay it today. If you

305
00:18:58.319 --> 00:19:00.799
need the time, take the time to do it. Maybe

306
00:19:00.839 --> 00:19:03.720
you've got money sitting in investment accounts or someplace else,

307
00:19:04.160 --> 00:19:06.279
or you're trying to sell some property, you're trying to

308
00:19:06.279 --> 00:19:09.759
get a second mortgage on your home, or maybe your

309
00:19:09.839 --> 00:19:11.720
home had no mortgage on it and you're trying to

310
00:19:11.720 --> 00:19:14.079
get a first mortgage. To get this paid off, you know,

311
00:19:14.240 --> 00:19:16.519
use one hundred and eighty days to do it, and

312
00:19:16.599 --> 00:19:20.759
then as soon as you get that mortgage money and

313
00:19:20.880 --> 00:19:23.720
pay it to the irs and be done with them.

314
00:19:24.039 --> 00:19:26.079
You know, it gets them off your back. It takes

315
00:19:26.119 --> 00:19:28.640
the stress out of your life, and it's a good

316
00:19:28.680 --> 00:19:35.200
way of simplifying life to make sure that you don't

317
00:19:35.240 --> 00:19:37.559
have to deal with the irs and you're not looking

318
00:19:37.599 --> 00:19:40.000
over your shoulder, going, oh my god, when's the IRS

319
00:19:40.119 --> 00:19:43.799
coming and taking everything I have out of my bank account.

320
00:19:44.400 --> 00:19:47.000
It's a great way to do it and be done

321
00:19:47.079 --> 00:19:50.480
with it, and you can go from there. We've helped

322
00:19:50.599 --> 00:19:55.759
many clients work through this and get them down the

323
00:19:55.839 --> 00:19:58.319
road to where they can pay this off in one

324
00:19:58.400 --> 00:20:01.759
hundred and eighty days. But a lot of times you

325
00:20:01.839 --> 00:20:04.079
commit to that and that one hundred and eighty days

326
00:20:04.200 --> 00:20:07.279
comes and goes, and now you're stuck with Hey, now

327
00:20:07.279 --> 00:20:09.599
we got to go to a payment plan that you

328
00:20:09.680 --> 00:20:12.880
usually know more extensions once you use up that whole

329
00:20:13.000 --> 00:20:16.759
hundred and eighty days every now and then we can

330
00:20:16.839 --> 00:20:21.960
get thirty days forty five day extensions out there, depending

331
00:20:22.000 --> 00:20:25.480
on the situation. But the IRS kind of frowns upon

332
00:20:25.640 --> 00:20:27.599
the fact that you've already used one hundred and eighty

333
00:20:27.640 --> 00:20:30.680
days and now you know, we're at a versa of

334
00:20:30.720 --> 00:20:34.200
them to get a payment plan a place, so kind

335
00:20:34.200 --> 00:20:37.039
of got away the pros and cons in this. If

336
00:20:37.079 --> 00:20:38.759
you know it's going to take you more than one

337
00:20:38.799 --> 00:20:40.559
hundred and eighty days to come up with the money

338
00:20:40.599 --> 00:20:44.240
to pay them off, then we start looking at variable,

339
00:20:44.880 --> 00:20:48.319
various payment plans that are out there, you know, and

340
00:20:48.680 --> 00:20:50.559
you know, most of them are going to be the

341
00:20:50.680 --> 00:20:54.880
long term payment plans that the IRS will offer, so

342
00:20:55.720 --> 00:20:59.599
you know, we want to make sure that you're diting

343
00:20:59.640 --> 00:21:03.359
your eyes, you're crossing your t's, and we're getting everything

344
00:21:03.960 --> 00:21:08.400
in place. Now. One thing to note accruing costs when

345
00:21:08.440 --> 00:21:12.880
you set up a payment plan, it does not does

346
00:21:13.160 --> 00:21:19.079
not stop penalties or interest. I'm growing on that unpaid

347
00:21:19.319 --> 00:21:22.680
balance now. Typically if you put it into one of

348
00:21:22.720 --> 00:21:26.000
these long term payment plans, it's going to reduce your

349
00:21:26.039 --> 00:21:30.279
monthly failure to pay penalty and it's going to reduce

350
00:21:30.359 --> 00:21:33.680
that in half. So it does come with some benefits

351
00:21:33.720 --> 00:21:38.359
out there, but we've got to deal with those things

352
00:21:38.720 --> 00:21:41.599
as they come up. Even when you get into a

353
00:21:41.640 --> 00:21:46.200
payment plan, they are going to apply any future tax

354
00:21:46.319 --> 00:21:51.720
refunds to your unpaid tax debt, So they are going

355
00:21:51.799 --> 00:21:55.359
to take any refunds you have coming from money through

356
00:21:55.480 --> 00:22:00.160
the IRS and apply it to your outstanding balance, which

357
00:22:00.160 --> 00:22:01.640
is kind of a good thing. You're not going to

358
00:22:01.640 --> 00:22:04.119
miss the money anyway, because you've already paid it in,

359
00:22:04.680 --> 00:22:06.799
so they're not going to give it back. They're going

360
00:22:06.880 --> 00:22:09.440
to keep it and apply it towards your accident, and

361
00:22:10.160 --> 00:22:13.960
you do run a risk of default. So if you

362
00:22:14.079 --> 00:22:20.039
miss two consecutive payments, it can generally does terminate your agreement,

363
00:22:20.400 --> 00:22:26.440
which then can lead to very severe collection actions such

364
00:22:26.519 --> 00:22:30.839
as wage garnishments, levies on your bank account. The whole works,

365
00:22:30.920 --> 00:22:34.599
so you know, hey, you've got to be aware of

366
00:22:34.880 --> 00:22:41.839
those things. So you know, IRS does offer other payment plans,

367
00:22:42.200 --> 00:22:45.160
and you know, we can look at the different types

368
00:22:45.200 --> 00:22:48.920
of payment plans that the IRS going to offer. And

369
00:22:49.039 --> 00:22:52.680
we had a couple of questions come in from Walter.

370
00:22:52.880 --> 00:22:56.680
We're going to address that after this next break, but

371
00:22:56.720 --> 00:22:59.759
then we'll talk about also the other types of payment

372
00:22:59.799 --> 00:23:01.799
plan as it's the IRS is. We're going to talk

373
00:23:01.839 --> 00:23:03.680
about that right after this quick breaking.

390
00:24:10.759 --> 00:24:14.240
Hey, welcome back. You know we're talking about I R

391
00:24:14.359 --> 00:24:18.559
S installment agreements today and how you can get into

392
00:24:18.599 --> 00:24:21.720
an installment agreement and that types of installment agreements that

393
00:24:21.960 --> 00:24:25.960
the i r S offers to you when you owe

394
00:24:26.000 --> 00:24:29.200
the I r S. Definitely, not when the i r

395
00:24:29.279 --> 00:24:30.759
S O is you, they're just going to cut you

396
00:24:30.799 --> 00:24:32.759
a check whether they have the money or not. You

397
00:24:32.759 --> 00:24:35.799
know that just adds to the national debt. If they

398
00:24:35.839 --> 00:24:37.200
owe you the money and they got to pay you

399
00:24:37.240 --> 00:24:40.000
the money, there's no one. We're not talking about installment

400
00:24:40.039 --> 00:24:44.200
agreements where the i R S is paying you. But definitely,

401
00:24:44.200 --> 00:24:46.480
when you owe the I R S money, you know

402
00:24:46.559 --> 00:24:50.279
you got choices, hey pay it off, put it in

403
00:24:50.359 --> 00:24:54.880

00:27:11.559 --> 00:27:15.759
Now we're talking about irs UH installment agreements, and we've

441
00:27:15.759 --> 00:27:21.519
all heard a IRS says I can get a fresh start.

442
00:27:21.920 --> 00:27:24.839
We heard in the radio programs. Hey, the I R

443
00:27:25.000 --> 00:27:28.720
S has a new program called fresh Start. It's fresh money.

444
00:27:29.160 --> 00:27:32.640
That's the way I look at it. You're freshly getting

445
00:27:32.799 --> 00:27:36.440
money from you. Call them up and the first thing

446
00:27:36.480 --> 00:27:38.839
they want to do is put you into the streamline

447
00:27:39.519 --> 00:27:43.119
Installment Agreement, which is available to you if you owe

448
00:27:43.200 --> 00:27:48.759
fifty thousand or less uh an S combining your tax,

449
00:27:49.079 --> 00:27:52.559
interest and penalties, and allows you to set up a

450
00:27:52.559 --> 00:27:57.000
payment plan for up to seven seventy two months without

451
00:27:57.680 --> 00:28:01.759
detail and financial and mation. So No. Four to thirty

452
00:28:01.759 --> 00:28:05.079
three A, No. Four to thirty three B. As a

453
00:28:05.079 --> 00:28:06.480
matter of fact, you don't even have to fill out

454
00:28:06.480 --> 00:28:09.680
the four thirty three D. You can call them up

455
00:28:09.920 --> 00:28:12.880
and they're going to give you the max payment plan

456
00:28:13.279 --> 00:28:16.039
right there on the phone. Three or four hours on

457
00:28:16.079 --> 00:28:18.599
the phone. But you'll be able to get that now.

458
00:28:19.079 --> 00:28:21.079
You know, THEK does get the irs off your back,

459
00:28:21.160 --> 00:28:23.359
but it's a full pay plan. Now they're going to

460
00:28:23.400 --> 00:28:26.039
look at statute of limitations as well, because if your

461
00:28:26.039 --> 00:28:30.400
statue of limitations is maybe only forty eight months, that's

462
00:28:30.400 --> 00:28:32.359
all they're going to give you to pay off this debt.

463
00:28:32.519 --> 00:28:34.160
Can you afford to do it? Do they care? No,

464
00:28:34.519 --> 00:28:39.160
they don't care. It's streamlined. It's like put it into

465
00:28:39.160 --> 00:28:42.279
the computer. Here's what it says, shoot it out. You're

466
00:28:42.400 --> 00:28:44.400
now paying one thousand dollars a month. Then you go,

467
00:28:44.480 --> 00:28:46.839
but but but I can't afford to do it? Yes,

468
00:28:46.920 --> 00:28:49.640
you can't ear the irs? You can't, or we got

469
00:28:49.640 --> 00:28:52.480
to go through all this detailed information and it's going

470
00:28:52.559 --> 00:28:55.839
to be very intrusive investigation. So you can agree to

471
00:28:55.880 --> 00:28:58.920
this right and you say yes, then you default them,

472
00:28:59.240 --> 00:29:01.720
you're back at square. Matter of fact, you've made things

473
00:29:01.759 --> 00:29:04.880
probably worse because a you may have given him information

474
00:29:05.000 --> 00:29:07.640
that they didn't need to have you answer questions wrong

475
00:29:08.160 --> 00:29:11.319
or be you agreed to this knowing full well you

476
00:29:11.319 --> 00:29:13.599
weren't going to be able to be in compliance. We

477
00:29:13.680 --> 00:29:17.559
just got them dealing with a client who has really

478
00:29:17.599 --> 00:29:21.920
got a revenue officer really mad because they have not

479
00:29:22.279 --> 00:29:26.920
managed to stay or be in compliance whatsoever, nor have

480
00:29:27.200 --> 00:29:30.920
they agreed. They agreed many a times with what the

481
00:29:30.960 --> 00:29:37.599
revenue officer wanted, but provided a zero not information or payments.

482
00:29:38.079 --> 00:29:42.480
And now the revenue officers in very very bad state

483
00:29:43.119 --> 00:29:45.960
and it's going to take a lot to get him

484
00:29:46.319 --> 00:29:50.480
or her out of trouble. So just got to remember

485
00:29:50.519 --> 00:29:55.079
when you're dealing with these people, they only objective is

486
00:29:55.160 --> 00:29:58.359
to get as much money out of you as possible.

487
00:29:58.839 --> 00:30:02.480
Say they're your friend, they say, I'm from the government

488
00:30:02.480 --> 00:30:04.480
and I'm here to help. And Ronald Reagan said it

489
00:30:04.480 --> 00:30:09.559
best turn around and run fast. So hey, when they're

490
00:30:09.599 --> 00:30:11.920
out there, they're not working for you. They work for

491
00:30:12.000 --> 00:30:15.799
the Department of Revenue. They don't work for you or

492
00:30:15.880 --> 00:30:19.880
I as a taxpayer. They have no allegiance to us

493
00:30:20.000 --> 00:30:24.319
as a taxpayer, only to their boss at the Department

494
00:30:24.440 --> 00:30:29.160
of Revenue. That's it. That is it. So you're sitting

495
00:30:29.160 --> 00:30:32.160
there looking at it, and you're saying, mister Fowler, there

496
00:30:32.240 --> 00:30:36.240
is no way I can afford to do this. I

497
00:30:36.319 --> 00:30:42.720
can't afford to be into this kind of installment agreement. Well,

498
00:30:42.759 --> 00:30:45.759
you do have options, and they're not necessarily going to

499
00:30:45.839 --> 00:30:48.720
disclose these to you. So you have an option to

500
00:30:48.799 --> 00:30:52.440
do a step to payment plan to where, hey, I

501
00:30:52.519 --> 00:30:56.400
know my life situation right now just doesn't work. So

502
00:30:57.400 --> 00:31:01.480
let's start out paying instead of that thousand dollars a month,

503
00:31:02.440 --> 00:31:05.480
let's start out paying at three hundred dollars, and then

504
00:31:05.519 --> 00:31:07.559
the second year, let's go to five hundred a month,

505
00:31:08.039 --> 00:31:10.599
and then the third year we can go up to

506
00:31:11.119 --> 00:31:13.799
you know, whatever is required to pay off the tax debt,

507
00:31:13.839 --> 00:31:16.559
which maybe twelve hundred. Now you know full well that

508
00:31:16.799 --> 00:31:19.200
probably isn't going to work in your life either, but

509
00:31:19.279 --> 00:31:21.599
at least you get started doing this, and then we

510
00:31:21.640 --> 00:31:25.200
can come back to the table and change up the

511
00:31:25.240 --> 00:31:29.720
payment plan, or maybe we can change things in your life.

512
00:31:29.720 --> 00:31:34.119
If we have to that, maybe you qualify for something different,

513
00:31:34.440 --> 00:31:37.160
maybe a partial pay installment. Now what does it take

514
00:31:37.200 --> 00:31:39.559
to get any It doesn't matter whether you owe fifty

515
00:31:39.599 --> 00:31:43.200
thousand or one hundred thousand or a million dollars. If

516
00:31:43.279 --> 00:31:47.599
you need to do a monified type installment agreement plan

517
00:31:48.319 --> 00:31:50.960
or you are still going to do a full pay

518
00:31:51.000 --> 00:31:53.839
installment agreement, but you owe a large amount of money

519
00:31:53.839 --> 00:31:56.720
to the irs, you're going to have to do a

520
00:31:56.759 --> 00:32:00.200
four to thirty three and it could be a B.

521
00:32:00.839 --> 00:32:03.480
A is if you're not running a business. Four thirty

522
00:32:03.559 --> 00:32:06.079
three B is for a business. So if you are

523
00:32:06.279 --> 00:32:11.839
a person who is running a corporation in es corporate

524
00:32:12.000 --> 00:32:17.839
or LLC or single member LLC reporting on a schedule, see,

525
00:32:18.519 --> 00:32:21.160
you're going to be possibly required to file that four

526
00:32:21.319 --> 00:32:24.799
thirty three B or business. You're gonna have to disclose

527
00:32:24.839 --> 00:32:27.720
everything that you're making from your business. And then you'll

528
00:32:28.400 --> 00:32:30.799
also have to do for thirty three A, which is

529
00:32:30.839 --> 00:32:35.319
a detailed financial statement of everything. You've got, everything you own,

530
00:32:35.599 --> 00:32:39.640
all your assets, and you've got to report everything honestly,

531
00:32:39.799 --> 00:32:44.720
true and correct, so there's no hiding property or avoiding

532
00:32:45.160 --> 00:32:49.880
something that you don't want to disclose today and the IRS.

533
00:32:49.960 --> 00:32:52.279
So if you're dealing with a revenue officer can come

534
00:32:52.319 --> 00:32:56.000
in and require you to liquidate your investment accounts, or

535
00:32:56.079 --> 00:33:01.519
liquidate a retirement account, or even possible we sell property,

536
00:33:01.559 --> 00:33:05.599
even rental property and stuff like that. You've got to

537
00:33:05.680 --> 00:33:07.720
have some give and take and you've got to figure

538
00:33:07.759 --> 00:33:09.559
out what's going to be the best thing for you.

539
00:33:09.599 --> 00:33:12.720
If you don't want to sell property, then you've got

540
00:33:12.720 --> 00:33:15.319
to come up with different solutions to it. But if

541
00:33:15.359 --> 00:33:18.200
the IRS sees the equity there and it's not your

542
00:33:18.200 --> 00:33:21.799
primary home, they could come back and say, no, we

543
00:33:21.880 --> 00:33:25.200
need and require you to sell this property, or we're

544
00:33:25.240 --> 00:33:28.079
going to take this property so that we will sell

545
00:33:28.119 --> 00:33:31.680
it and apply what's left to your tax debt. So

546
00:33:32.200 --> 00:33:34.680
you've got to be aware of that. So you've got

547
00:33:34.680 --> 00:33:37.559
to sit down and be able to do this analysis

548
00:33:37.599 --> 00:33:41.000
and then prove what you can afford to pay today

549
00:33:41.240 --> 00:33:44.839
to the IRS and in monthly payments, and once you

550
00:33:44.960 --> 00:33:48.839
do that, then the IRS can say yay or nay

551
00:33:49.400 --> 00:33:53.319
and approve installment agreement. You're dealing with the revenue officer,

552
00:33:53.440 --> 00:33:56.839
then dollar amounts large enough that revenue officer would have

553
00:33:56.880 --> 00:34:00.200
to go to their manager. So you've got to be

554
00:34:00.279 --> 00:34:05.119
aware of the different options and tools. We're going to

555
00:34:05.160 --> 00:34:07.160
take a quick break and when we come back, we're

556
00:34:07.160 --> 00:34:09.920
going to talk more about that partial pay installment agreement

557
00:34:09.960 --> 00:34:13.920
and how that could possibly benefit you over the long term,

558
00:34:14.000 --> 00:34:14.800
whether that Frida.

559
00:34:16.559 --> 00:34:20.239
We have only scratched the surface of today's show. Please

tax Stock for you with more tax stock once again.

567
00:34:52.599 --> 00:34:58.559
Here's your host, Barry G. Fowler. Hey, welcome back, and

568
00:34:58.639 --> 00:35:02.920
you're talking IRS plans, you know, and again first thing

569
00:35:02.960 --> 00:35:06.239
you got news be in compliance. All tax returns filed,

570
00:35:06.719 --> 00:35:10.559
estimated tax payments for twenty twenty six paid. That means

571
00:35:10.599 --> 00:35:13.280
you have first one is do April fifteenth, Your next

572
00:35:13.280 --> 00:35:17.760
one is due June fifteenth, and then October and then January.

573
00:35:17.880 --> 00:35:22.400
So make sure you're going to be in compliance. Once

574
00:35:22.440 --> 00:35:26.480
you're in compliance, then you can file for an installment agreement.

575
00:35:27.079 --> 00:35:28.400
If you want to go with the full amount, you

576
00:35:28.440 --> 00:35:30.880
can even go to the IRS dot gov and go

577
00:35:30.960 --> 00:35:33.239
into their payment tools and set up your own payment

578
00:35:33.320 --> 00:35:35.960
arrangement there and you can get a VD to approve.

579
00:35:36.559 --> 00:35:38.559
I've tried that for a few of our clients and

580
00:35:39.119 --> 00:35:44.079
we continue to get rejects because whatever, sometimes the system

581
00:35:44.280 --> 00:35:47.079
just doesn't work it's supposed to, So you know, you

582
00:35:47.119 --> 00:35:49.280
need to be aware of that as you're going through.

583
00:35:49.719 --> 00:35:53.920
So you can also call the IRS eight hundred and

584
00:35:53.920 --> 00:35:56.960
eighty two nine ten forty and you sit on hold

585
00:35:56.960 --> 00:35:59.159
for three hours, speak to a representative, and they'll get

586
00:35:59.159 --> 00:36:03.840
you into a full pay installment agreement as quick as possible.

587
00:36:04.679 --> 00:36:08.800
But if you can't afford to pay the IRS, there

588
00:36:08.880 --> 00:36:12.320
is an option out there called the partial pay installment agreement.

589
00:36:12.519 --> 00:36:16.559
Now what we do is we use this especially when

590
00:36:16.599 --> 00:36:19.400
statute of limitations are coming up and we need to

591
00:36:19.440 --> 00:36:23.199
stop the IRS from coming after everything you own. And

592
00:36:23.280 --> 00:36:25.360
we can prove to the IRS with the four to

593
00:36:25.440 --> 00:36:28.519
thirty three A and four thirty three B, or maybe

594
00:36:28.519 --> 00:36:31.039
we just use the four to thirty three F. Usually

595
00:36:31.119 --> 00:36:35.079
they want the detailed one we can prove to the IRS.

596
00:36:35.119 --> 00:36:37.719
You can only afford to pay so much a month.

597
00:36:38.079 --> 00:36:40.599
Maybe you can only afford to pay one hundred dollars

598
00:36:40.639 --> 00:36:43.719
a month on debt that they want one thousand dollars

599
00:36:43.920 --> 00:36:47.679
because they need that thousand to pay off certain debt

600
00:36:47.800 --> 00:36:50.960
before the statute of limitations right now, but you can

601
00:36:51.000 --> 00:36:53.800
only afford to pay the hundred, and we could prove

602
00:36:53.840 --> 00:36:56.079
it to them. Well, then you can be set up

603
00:36:56.119 --> 00:36:59.519
on that payment plan four one hundred dollars a month. Now,

604
00:37:00.119 --> 00:37:02.599
that one hundred dollars a month will be for the

605
00:37:02.719 --> 00:37:06.079
term of the life of the debt, so it may

606
00:37:06.199 --> 00:37:09.400
pay off some of the newer debt over span of

607
00:37:09.519 --> 00:37:13.400
five years or set or seventy two months, six years,

608
00:37:13.840 --> 00:37:18.079
but the other debt falls off along the way, which

609
00:37:18.159 --> 00:37:20.719
makes the one hundred dollars a month payment plan work

610
00:37:20.800 --> 00:37:23.400
over the seventy two months. So you as long as

611
00:37:23.440 --> 00:37:26.400
you make that one hundred dollars payment every month, certain

612
00:37:26.440 --> 00:37:29.840
tax debts will fall off as you go because Statute

613
00:37:29.880 --> 00:37:33.920
Limitations only runs for ten years. So if right now

614
00:37:34.519 --> 00:37:38.960
you had tax debt from twenty fifteen or even fourteen

615
00:37:39.079 --> 00:37:42.519
or thirteen, or you know somewhere around there that had

616
00:37:42.639 --> 00:37:45.400
extensions on the Statue of limitations, you may be seeing

617
00:37:45.519 --> 00:37:48.440
tax debt that's going to fall off here just in

618
00:37:48.480 --> 00:37:51.239
the coming months or over the next year or two.

619
00:37:51.960 --> 00:37:55.239
It may save you a ton of money of debt

620
00:37:55.440 --> 00:37:58.920
to the irs by being in a partial pay installmaagreement. Yes,

621
00:37:59.400 --> 00:38:02.360
over to years, you'd pay twenty four hundred dollars, but

622
00:38:02.480 --> 00:38:05.800
that would pay in comparison to one of the clients

623
00:38:05.840 --> 00:38:08.440
we just did this for, and they had twenty thousand

624
00:38:08.519 --> 00:38:10.639
debt thousand dollars worth of debt fall off in the

625
00:38:10.679 --> 00:38:13.880
first year, another twenty five thousand falling off in the

626
00:38:13.960 --> 00:38:17.960
second year, and then another fifteen thousand falling off in

627
00:38:18.039 --> 00:38:19.920
the third year. But by the end of the third

628
00:38:19.960 --> 00:38:23.239
year they've only paid thirty six hundred and they saved

629
00:38:23.440 --> 00:38:28.239
almost sixty thousand dollars by having in partial pay installment agreement.

630
00:38:28.280 --> 00:38:31.840
So sometimes those partial pay installment agreements were now, what's

631
00:38:31.880 --> 00:38:35.199
the benefit versus Oh my gosh. The holy grail of

632
00:38:35.760 --> 00:38:42.039
resolution that you hear online of offering compromise is a

633
00:38:42.280 --> 00:38:45.840
over seven years, seventy two months, you pay seventy two

634
00:38:45.920 --> 00:38:49.920
hundred dollars and you're done. As long as you're able

635
00:38:49.960 --> 00:38:52.760
to make those payments, all the total debt falls away

636
00:38:52.800 --> 00:38:54.880
except for the seventy two hundred you paid over the

637
00:38:55.000 --> 00:38:59.519
seventy two months, and you probably save money because one,

638
00:39:00.199 --> 00:39:02.719
you paid less to get this partial pay installment agreement.

639
00:39:03.000 --> 00:39:07.960
Two you don't have to worry about compliance as much

640
00:39:08.440 --> 00:39:12.920
because once debt falls off over the year, two years,

641
00:39:12.920 --> 00:39:16.719
three years, four years, whatever the time period is. If

642
00:39:16.760 --> 00:39:21.119
you then default, then guess what. All that debt has

643
00:39:21.239 --> 00:39:24.480
not come flooding back. It has been settled by statue

644
00:39:24.480 --> 00:39:30.159
of limitations. It's gone. So there was your benefit of

645
00:39:30.199 --> 00:39:33.840
being in a partial pay installment agreement, whereas if you're

646
00:39:33.920 --> 00:39:38.079
not offering compromise in four years in you default because

647
00:39:38.079 --> 00:39:40.039
you don't file a tax return or you owe money

648
00:39:40.079 --> 00:39:42.360
on a tax return where you didn't make a proper

649
00:39:42.480 --> 00:39:44.519
estimated tax payments, and now you owe and you can't

650
00:39:44.559 --> 00:39:50.119
afford to pay all that tax debt came flooding back

651
00:39:50.239 --> 00:39:54.119
to you, and how you all owe everything that was

652
00:39:54.199 --> 00:39:58.760
settled because statute of limitations and an offering compromise ceased

653
00:39:58.800 --> 00:40:02.320
to run while you're paying them and offering compromise, and

654
00:40:02.440 --> 00:40:07.800
you have one hundred percent compliance requirement. So what's the

655
00:40:07.840 --> 00:40:11.639
best It depends on your situation. Sometimes offering compromise sometimes

656
00:40:11.760 --> 00:40:15.760
noncollectible status sometimes partial pay installment agreement. If you really

657
00:40:15.840 --> 00:40:18.000

by law or your situation. All right, we got some

662
00:40:32.519 --> 00:40:36.719
follow up questions. Jansen is asking do you need different

663
00:40:36.719 --> 00:40:41.239
bank accounts for each side Hustle. So here's the thing, Jansen,

664
00:40:41.400 --> 00:40:44.119
really just depends on how you're set up. If you

665
00:40:44.159 --> 00:40:47.280
set up different core companies, different analyses, yes you do.

666
00:40:47.440 --> 00:40:50.880
If it's just one company with DBAs, no, you don't

667
00:40:50.920 --> 00:40:55.639
need necessarily separate bank accounts, but you know you could

668
00:40:55.800 --> 00:40:58.360
use them because it could help divide up and split

669
00:40:58.480 --> 00:41:00.559
and say, hey, this is how each segment of the

670
00:41:00.559 --> 00:41:03.559
business is doing a little bit easier. But sometimes for

671
00:41:03.639 --> 00:41:07.320
most people that would get confusing. If you're running different LLCs,

672
00:41:07.760 --> 00:41:11.719
then yes, or different corporations, then yes, you need separate

673
00:41:11.760 --> 00:41:15.159
bank accounts for each one, separate employer identification number for

674
00:41:15.199 --> 00:41:19.239
each one, and then you go from there. Also, Jansen,

675
00:41:19.280 --> 00:41:23.199
you're asking, do you need bookkeeping for each side Hustle? No,

676
00:41:23.360 --> 00:41:27.920
not necessarily you might want to have different classes in

677
00:41:28.039 --> 00:41:31.519
what we use is zero software and you'd be able

678
00:41:31.559 --> 00:41:34.320
to distinguish one business from the other to see how

679
00:41:35.440 --> 00:41:38.519
you're making money. And his last question was do you

680
00:41:38.519 --> 00:41:41.440
need to file different taxes for each side hustle. If

681
00:41:41.480 --> 00:41:45.280
there are separate companies, separate LLCs may be recognized as

682
00:41:45.440 --> 00:41:50.719
escorps or different incorporated businesses as es corps. Each corporation

683
00:41:50.800 --> 00:41:54.440
will file a separate return. If you're filing under your

684
00:41:54.440 --> 00:41:58.719
personal schedule C then though you would not, it would

685
00:41:58.760 --> 00:42:02.239
all roll up into one. Now, if you're running two

686
00:42:02.280 --> 00:42:07.280
different entities, yes, then you would want to separate schedule sees.

687
00:42:07.400 --> 00:42:11.639
But it all gets wild with us. Jansen, you got

688
00:42:11.679 --> 00:42:15.800
some great questions. The next question out here we're going

689
00:42:15.880 --> 00:42:18.079
to have to address next week. We'll talking about small

690
00:42:18.119 --> 00:42:21.480
businesses and what you need to do for your side hustles.

691
00:42:21.760 --> 00:42:25.519
When to make your side hustle a business, when to incorporate,

692
00:42:25.920 --> 00:42:28.639
when to make an LLC and all that. We can

693
00:42:28.679 --> 00:42:31.320
discuss that next week because we're running a limited time

694
00:42:31.360 --> 00:42:36.920
here for this show. This week. Great questions, you now

695
00:42:37.000 --> 00:42:39.400
