Chicago: IRS and Divorce

Chicago: IRS and Divorce
Could the IRS Make You Get Divorced? In Chicago and need IRS Relief for Tax Debt?

Numerous studies have shown that the money problems are the #1 source of arguments in marriage.

Money problems caused by credit debt, loss of a job, unforeseen expenses – you name it…it’s all stressful on a marriage.

But if you toss an IRS problem into the mix, you may have a recipe for disaster. The IRS has more far-reaching power than any collection agency could ever have.

No other entity has the power to dip into your bank account, garnish your wages, seize your property, put a lien on your house…and possibly put you in jail.

So if money problems cause arguments, IRS problems can cause absolute fallout.

Of course, if divorce follows as a result, it introduces a whole host of other problems emotionally and financially.

Not to mention the damaging effects that marital problems and divorce has on your children… So the IRS can’t cause a divorce, but they sure can contribute to one.

You owe it to yourself, your spouse and your children to put and end to this madness and get on with your life.

In the Chicago area and owe taxes? You may not even know you have an IRS tax lien until it’s too late.

The IRS uses liens to get people to pay the taxes owed. It’s one of the many tools in their arsenal and for many people it’s one of the worst penalties the IRS can inflict. It does silent damage to your life and your credit before you figure it out.

Simply stated, a lien is a security held against your personal and/or investment property by the IRS. And it can make your life miserable.

If the IRS places a claim on your property as a tax lien,it shows up on your credit report and can greatly damage your credit score.

The worst part is that you may not even be aware of the lien until you go apply for a credit card, car loan, home equity loan or to refinance. By that point lenders are hesitant to loan you any money.

Plus, a tax lien may make it very difficult to sell your house. A buyer will be reluctant to buy since the lien comes with the property and becomes the buyer’s problem if you don’t take care of it.

If you’ve had a lien placed on your property already, or if you’ve been served a Notice of Federal Tax Lien – you know that trouble’s just around the corner.

Chicago: IRS Back Taxes?

Chicago: IRS Back Taxes?

Owe the IRS Back Taxes or Have a Notice of Levy? One of the most common questions we get is “What are back taxes?”

Back taxes are simply taxes that you owe that you didn’t pay when they were due.

They may have occurred because of income not being reported, or maybe because there wasn’t enough money to pay them when they became due.

Whatever the reason, the IRS will find a way to collect… eventually.

Sometimes the IRS doesn’t send notices for a while. If nothing seems to happen or they don’t get ‘caught’ some people start believing that they’ve somehow under the radar of the IRS and that they are getting away with it.

But that isn’t the case at all.

Eventually the IRS catches up with everybody.

Here’s what happens when they do:

1.You’ll get sent a Notice and Demand for Payment from the IRS.
2.You either pay or don’t pay the tax.
3.If you don’t pay, you’ll be sent a Final Notice of Intent to Levy and Notice of Your Right to a Hearing at least 30 days before the levy.

That’s when you know you’ve got big problems.

In 30 days, the IRS is going to start helping themselves to the money in your bank account. If you’ve received a Final Notice of Intent to Levy, you need to take action immediately.

IRS Tax Problem Help: Tax Options Chicago

Chicago: Is Your IRS Problem Keeping You Up at Night?

Chicago: IRS tax problems causing lost sleep?

The IRS has a lot of power. The power to put you in jail. The power to garnish your wages, and the power to raid your bank account.

But there is something about the IRS that you need to know.

(And something a lot of people won’t tell you about)….

The extreme measures, like jail time and bank seizures, are reserved for people who don’t take action. They aren’t for people like you who are looking for a solution.

When you take action in dealing with your IRS problem you can easily avoid the worst case scenarios.

In fact, the IRS has 5 distinct solutions that allow people who are looking for a solution to make their IRS debt go away.

One of them will make sense for you and your situation.

You don’t have to try to figure out “how” right now. Just take a moment and decide in your mind that you won’t lose any more sleep over an IRS problem.

Because the IRS really doesn’t want to put you in jail or sieze your assets. They want compliance with the tax law, and they want you to work with them to pay your tax bills.
