The IRS has a lot of power to throw around, and one of the scariest things it can do is go after your wages. According to PR Newswire 54% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, but that doesn’t stop the IRS from taking those hard-earned dollars.

If you owe back taxes, your wages are fair game — unless you have our team on your side. Not long ago, a client of ours learned that the hard way. We’ll call her Susan. When Susan came to us, she owed $63,945 in back taxes. The IRS came down on her hard, garnishing her wages and filing a tax lien in her name. Susan was terrified about her financial future. One of her children needed medical care and she was worried she wouldn’t be able to pay the bills.

But then, she enlisted our help. Right away, we took all of that stress off Susan’s shoulders! We immediately stopped the IRS’s enforcement action and convinced its Appeal Unit to remove more than $20,000 in penalties and interest from Susan’s debt. Eventually the IRS agreed to settle Susan’s back taxes for just $8,154 — a nearly 90% reduction! With her full paychecks back, Susan can finally afford to pay her child’s medical bills and maintain the lifestyle she wants. The fresh start came just in time for New Years.

If you or someone you know is facing mounting tax debt, wage garnishment, or other IRS threats, it’s not too late to explore those same results and enjoy your 2022. You can get started with our free resources, including the report “10 Ways to Get IRS Penalties Removed,” at LandmarkTaxGroup.com/Free.
