Wage Garnishments

IRS wage garnishments are one of the numerous ways the government can collect on back taxes. The IRS can also levy checking and savings accounts, stocks, bonds and anything else you own.

Before the IRS can garnish your wages or any other source of income, the IRS must issue a final notice of intent to levy. From the date of this notice, a 30-day grace period is granted to the taxpayer to give him a chance to bring the account into good standing. What you should realize is that ignoring these notices will only make matters worse.

Once the IRS files a wage garnishment with your employer, the employer is required by law to collect a percentage of your paycheck and distribute it to the IRS. In most cases, it is difficult to stop wage garnishment once it begins, and until back taxes are paid, it remains. However, a release may be negotiated.

San Diego Tax Attorneys will analyze your situation and find you the best course of action. We will make sure that you file within 30 days of the date of the notice. San Diego Tax Attorneys specialize in negotiating with the IRS to release wage garnishments. You must understand that for any particular scenario we cannot guarantee that a release can be negotiated, but we can say that the IRS will frequently release a wage garnishment in two cases:

• If you pay back all of the money that the taxpayer owes;
• If you work out an Offer in Compromise or Install Agreement with the IRS agent.

The first way seems to be less preferred because most of the taxpayers involved in such a situation don't have the enough money to pay the debt off.
