subject: How Do You Spell Tax Relief? [print this page] Many people these days through no fault of their own have fallen behind on their IRS taxes. Let me just say here that we want to pay our fair share, but we dont want to give the IRS tax collectors one-single penny more than we have to. Lets say your business slowed down when the economy tanked. Then when it came to tax preparation time you were a little short on funds and had to choose between making payroll or paying your taxes. Of course, you took care of your people first. Maybe you didnt even have any tax help because you couldnt afford a good tax preparer. And then you were left holding the tax bill. Thousands of small business owners are in this same boat as you right now.
It can be a little creepy dealing with the IRS. For one thing the IRS tax collection machine can muster virtually unlimited resources against you. They will act all friendly but their real job is to use intimidation tactics to squeeze every cent out of you that they can. Let me be clear: the IRS tax approach is not to give you a fair and lawful tax bill. The IRS tax approach is to use your lack of understanding your rights against you to take unfair advantage of you. Its their game and their turf and they expect you to be a nice docile little sheep for the shearing.
So if you tangle with them they will do an audit and come in with some horrendous tax bill that is totally outrageous. Its a shock and awe type of approach. Some people will just pay the bill or go on a payment plan for the full amount that is also inflated with excessive penalties and interest. They are hoping that you believe that ignorance is bliss and just pay it or sign up for some oppressive payment plan that keeps you forever in debt to big brother.
What the IRS doesnt want you to know is that you dont have to just bend over, grab your ankles and take the bill that they give you in the assets. They wont tell you that you can challenge the bill. In fact, you should challenge the bill because they initially inflate it with all kinds of bogus assessments. If you dont challenge it they just laugh at you behind the scenes. You are expected to get that bill down, and if you dont they just chalk you up as another clueless chump.
The good news is that there is tax help. Tax attorneys and tax relief firms know your rights and defend them for you. If you work closely with one of these tax resolution services they can usually get your bill down to pennies on the dollar. They know all the secret tricks that the IRS uses and their tax attorneys can fight effectively for your rights. Dont walk through the valley of the shadow of tax death alone. Take a tax resolution advocate with you. You can find more good tax resolution information at sites like www.bluetax.com
