           Tax Controversy Resolution

Image by DocuSign

It is common for taxpayers to procrastinate or even ignore dealing with their unresolved tax issues because they have neither the time nor the expertise to resolve them. However, ignoring these issues will not alleviate them – but more than likely will compound them further. In fact, by delaying your response and action, you may be sacrificing your rights as a taxpayer. Many actions are under strict time constraints, allowing only 30-90 days to respond or risk having liens and levies imposed.  Let Francis Tax help you!

OFFER IN COMPROMISE

The Offer In Compromise (OIC) program is for taxpayers who do not have, and will not have in the foreseeable future, the income, assets, or means to pay their tax liability in full. As your representative, we will file an Offer In Compromise, which, in many situations, permits you to settle an outstanding tax obligation for less than the full amount owed.

VOLUNTARY DISCLOSURES

A Voluntary Disclosure allows you, or your business, that may have an unpaid tax liability or an unfulfilled filing requirement, to disclose your liability voluntarily. Francis Tax will help implement these obligations and prevent the imposition of severe penalties in most cases.

AUDIT DEFENSE SERVICES

Many taxpayers do not realize that they have the right to be represented by professionals who specialize in handling tax audits from the inception of notification. It is not necessary for you to personally appear before taxing authorities. Our approach is grounded in extensive preparation and research throughout every stage of the audit process, enabling us to achieve the best results possible.

PENALTY ABATEMENT REQUESTS

Taxpayers believe that once a penalty is assessed it is due and payable. Often, penalties are assessed in error or calculated incorrectly. Francis Tax will determine the reason for the penalty assessment and verify calculations. If reasonable cause exists, we will pursue an action that generally results in an abatement of the penalties.

RELEASE OF LIENS AND LEVIES

Francis Tax has extensive experience in dealing with various taxing authorities. Liens and levies can be released before any loss of taxpayer funds.

6

INNOCENT SPOUSE RELIEF

Many times spouses have balances that are due to taxing authorities caused by understatements of tax that are attributable to a current or former spouse’s intentional disregard to withhold pertinent information. Francis Tax can help you resolve these balances if you did not have prior knowledge of them.
