IRS is not part of the government.It is not a registered agency.In the chapter thirty one it is a private collection agency for the private federal reserve
Income tax is 💯 % illegal. This is sick. On ss and can barely get by. They tax my ss to the tune of 3 grand a year. How am i suppose to save that much on ss. Tell me HOW
I don't disagree. The IRS STEALS money from the American people. However, the 16th Amendment to the Constitution grants Congress the authority to issue an income tax without having to determine it based on population. It reads: "The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration." What a mess.
It’s says it in the Constitution. I can’t remember what amendment but I believe it was first passed in 1913 instituting in a Federal Income Tax. It’s bullshit but it’s there.
I had a CPA do my taxes for the first time in 2018 and he apparently forgot to check an box on the form according to an H&R block rep I saw in 2018 and I am now $17 thousand in debt to the IRS! I live alone and pay check to pay check! I appreciate your video and will be looking into the OIC and financial hardship options! Thank you so much!
When you liquidate a part of portfolio to pay the taxes (generated by “sells”), you generate more tax burden because you owe now on those “sells” until there is no more. Then they take your house anyway. Such a great system.
I've been on an installment plan, problem is I'm only able to pay about a Year's worth of back taxes in one year but I owe about 3 years back taxes, so every year I continue to owe about 3 years of back taxes, add all the interest and penalties sure isn't helping. One thing I do need to do is to have more taxes held out of my check an order to stop the bleeding.
I haven’t had to file since 2016. They’ve turned over my $10 offer on my 2011 tax debt ($now $10k) to an investigator in that dept. My SS is nowhere near their allowances. I can’t afford to live in the US anymore. Moved to Ecuador in 2016. 4 1/2 mos to tell me I’ll be contacted in 6 wks.
You know how devastating it feels to be homeless while working. Lose what you work for have life stolen and owe taxes that i cant pay. Its a depressing hole that almost renders my brain useless to solve the stress. Thank you so much for the information
Offer in Compromise success rate-have equity in my home and yes have 401k through employer-married with child I have more debt than I make? As far as first time abatement:I believe I did file an extension 2020/2019 is that still considered filing on time-thanks for the information most well explained video on the subject
Omg I'm praying there's hope for my boyfriends situation. He owes 90k and has been so stressed out with no hope of ever paying it back. This video is the first glimmer of hope we've had. He owns nothing and makes less than 40k a year. There's no way he can pay this back and I'm very concerned about his health and well being. Thanks for posting this..I will show it to him!
Most people that qualify for IOC are insolvent. In other words, they don't have any assets to pay off the liability. Also, if you receive an IRS notice, don't pay it right away. Give it to a tax professional for a thorough review. Approximately, 30% of IRS notices are inaccurate.
I found out the first week of March 2020 that my husband and I owed back taxes.. that I didn't know about. We got a levy notice. Almost 3 years in abd and I still can't it resolved!! We were under 10,000 so no one will help and we make to much to get free help. Covid messed everything up but We are paying penalties and interest eveyday! I would have resolved this in 2020!
You have to be current with your estimated tax (for future taxes owed) and compliant with your tax filing obligations (all of your returns filed). So you may have back taxes owed, but you have "stopped the bleed" so that you don't owe anymore going forward.
Really good informative video I loved the Gems. Very appreciative of the value exhibited here !! If I were in to paying people to do a job for me I swear I’d call you up and recommend you everyone I know ! Least I could do is inform everyone reading PLEASE WATCH VIDEO ALL THE WAY THROUGH YOU WILL LEARN SOMETHING NEW THAT MAY BE CRUCIAL TO YOUR CASE ‼️❕❗️ please keep the same energy in your videos much love God Bless
If I don’t pay my back taxes I owe to the IRS, would they withhold my SS retirement benefits someday when I turn 62 for early retirement? I’m 43 right now. Appreciate you and your much educational helpful blog on this tax matters.
No, but you need to pay otherwise, your wages will be garnished. Your car and house can be taken from you. Pay your taxes as we all do, they need the money to build schools and roads. The government gives money to all states and it is from taxes collected. Please pay, everyone does pay their debts.
@@johnsonajayi7846 Yo, please shush if you don't know, enough ignorance going around Roads are paid for by The Gas Tax and local registration fees Schools are paid for by local Property Taxes and the State Lottery, as well as Bond Measures. Sales tax goes to the state, that's every sale, from cows, to land, to cars, to planes and etc , etc. Income Tax goes to the Banksters that print the $ fiat Reserve Notes, It goes to "Ukraine" politician's pockets, the Rockefellers, Warburgs, Morgans, Chases, etc. Debt currency is a scam. Read the "Creature from Jekyll Island" by G. Edward Griffin.. The Federal Reserve was signed into existence By Woodrow Wilson Dec 23rd 1913 at 12:30 Midnight, along with "The Income Tax Act." So we get a Private Banking Cartel and Pay Interest now on our Labor, day before Christmas at midnight? The Plan was hatched in a Private meeting of Bankers 1910, November 20-30th, on Jekyll Island off the Coast of Georgia Just because you are ignorant and a slave don't tell others to pay into something there is NO LAW requiring a Man, (who isn't a Corporation). See they made us all Corporations with the creation of Birth Certificates in 1933. (The President at the time said, "Soon all Americans will be required to register their Biological Property"...is how the speech went. All CAPS STRAWMAN. They trade your value on the stock exchange, why do you think they keep track of you lifetime earnings? Why do you think they have the game rigged so you pay into SS all your life with your HOURLY SLAVE WAGE and can't retire until you're 70 (for me) so you'll only pull your measly payment for 5-10 years (That you have to pay Taxes on too as you struggle to live on pocket change. "They" don't pay taxes they don't "earn wages". They aren't stupid, we are. They avoid estate taxes, they avoid capital gains, they buy real estate or a business to launder the $$, they have offshore accounts. We pay for their lifestyle with our labor. We pay all the income tax, the workers pay it, the poor pay it, NOT the Owners. "Certificates" hold Value " Notes" are Debt/ Promises to pay. Look at a dollar bill, does it say Certificate? Wake up. I hope you learned something. Find the US Code or Law that says I have to pay tax on my labor and I'll give you $1,000.
@@johnsonajayi7846 I forgot, Read the 1984 "Grace Commission Report", demanded by Ronald Reagan asking to account for every cent the American people sent to the Government for Income Tax. Read the last paragraph, something like, " Not one Nickel of Income Tax Revenue was spent to run the Government or provide any services what so ever. All funds from the Income Tax Collection went to Service the DEBT, the Interest on the National Debt." sooooo, to the Federal Reserve, W.E.F., and World Bank, etc So we owe Interest on the Debt we created when we spent the Notes that the Fed created. If they Print a dollar and charge us Interest to do so, where does the $ to pay the Interest come from? Oh, they Print it to, and then we owe Interest on that too. Great Scam.
So in 2015, I had to cash my defined benefit pension, in order to pay half the equity I owed to my spouse’s bankruptcy receiver (Under our agreement I owed him .25 of the equity $47,000, when son turned 18) to be able to keep my house where both myself and both of my kids, who were college students at the time, lived. My former company happened to be having a cash out option at the time. I paid the rest with savings in an IRA. I need to amend this return to get my pension cash out excused from any taxes. Apparently the law was changed in 2019, but do I have any hope because this happened to me in 2015? My AGI that year was $105,000, but my earned income was only about $60,000.
They cancelled the installment agreement i had becsuse i paid too early never bothered to send me a letter they cancelled it now put me into collections ARGUED with me and said i better pay 160 from now on plus a fee of 240 even though im under 51k a year. She yelled at me and said i have 30 days and i had a severe asthma attack on the phone she kept yelling and didnt care
I’m 21 and the IRS hit me with a $3,000 bill from when I was 19 and didn’t know what I was doing. I’m still in school and not sure what I’m supposed to do lol
Address it quickly. I owed $500. When I was 17. Ended up paying them 5,700.00 by the time all was said and done. Their interest rates are life crushing.
Personally all I can say is that I had enought of this country,came here legally when I was 12 now I'm 32 and every year is the same shit I have to pay or something else happens when filling my taxes, I cant wait into I go back to my country no more paying to sam, personally I'm very disapointed of this country👎
And where do those taxes go? Military industrial complex, bloated "education" system, social programs for people who will *NEVER* contribute to society...and every year it gets worse.
Really great info sir! You said for an installment agreement plan, you take the amount owed and divide by 72. I'm baffled why my former tax guy (who I've now stopped using) said for the 20k I owe (at that time) the best he could do working with IRS Tax Advocate, was $400 a month. Which seemed high to me... But he said it was correct. I now owe less than that, since the IRS has been dinging my paycheck about $800 per month. I really want to get the IRS off my back. My frustration right now is the IRS Tax Advocate my former tax guy was working with does not respond to my phone calls. I leave phone messages, and hear nothing in return. Should I call a different number than the IRS Tax Advocate we had been working with?
My husband has a deficiency 90 letter. We or low income he's working paycheck to paycheck only enough for his bills and i get SSI only enough for my bills not able to pay any money back we live in housing trying to get ahead. What can we do about the deficiency 90 day letter?
Unfortunately, the IRS will take refunds when there is a balance due . . . if you do an Offer in Compromise, this will stop the tax year after the Offer is accepted.
@@TaxLawGuy They took over $1,000 dollars this year of mine and only left enough left to pay tax preparer. I'm sooo mad they didn't even try to work with me. That's not fair...It's paid in full now but why did they have to be Soo dirty when people need money exspecially in this day and time?
The IRS says I owe back tax from 2019 from income at a place I never worked! Either identity theft or an irs glitch but they ignore all my faxed replies. I have statements from the company saying they don’t know me and never submitted a 1099 for me. I cannot get a human on the phone. How can they decide I owe it without checking the accuracy of their info?
Same happened to me ... I didn't got 2019 return money and they sent me a letter stating I didn't fully filled tax return, then I find out someone used my identity on some other place ,now I owed over 2k and haven't received last year's nor this year's tax return... should I get a attorney cause they owe me over 40k from 2019,2020 and 2021
How difficult is it to renegotiate the installment agreement at the next tax cycle? In my case, it's not that I lack sufficient funds to pay -- and I am unconcerned about paying an 8% yearly interest rate, even if it formulates to 150% of taxes owed in the end -- I am more concerned with retaining use of the owed amount as investment principal for as long as feasible. Unless Uncle Sam really needs that 50% "penalty" sooner than the 72 months agreed upon, we should both be coming out ahead in this arrangement.
Hello Sir Good day. I owe $36K back taxes to IRS and I live with my sister now and currently receiving only $500 respite care check monthly due to her autistic son (my nephew) since July last year and I do Uber gig on the side as part time income. Would something like from my situation qualify me as financial hardship option to IRS?
Thank you for this informative video. I learned about OIC a few years ago. I was in the last option# 3 up until recently. Do you offer a free consultation to see if a person qualifies for OIC?
Like others have commented on here, I was intimidated and procrastinating while looking for new career opportunities. I didn't handle filing and paying correctly. I have had bank accts garnished, my paychecks garnished in past My wife is being garnished even today by the State. But now I am also being even more aggressively pursued by the State of Alabama. I believe I have been told they don't do settlements. Any advice on how to handle the State of Alabama? I'm unemployed and wife makes around $30k, with 2 kids in the home.
This was extremely helpful!!!! Thank you so much. I did not know the IRS would do any of this and was going to pay a tax relief company $2k to help me. Thank God for you! I have fresh hope. I have a question, I lost 2 sons within 3 years. Will the State be as forgiving as the IRS?
Move to a no income tax state and you will pay those taxes indirectly to something in that state such as higher property taxes or higher car insurance and other things
It really depends. It is a complex process, but if you may be able to work directly with the IRS. Please keep in mind that their interest is not aligned with your interest. My recommendation is to always talk to an attorney first to get an understanding of how complex your case may be.
My father and my mother both passed away in 2019 and 2020 my father left behind some taxes that weren't paid and some income tax years that he never Filed he left behind no assets and the estate account was pretty bare at $2000 which it still remains today 3 years later the IRS just recently sent me a mail coming to me For his backtaxes not sure what to do or if I should get a lawyer
Excellent video! I submitted my OIC, and received the IRS notice that they received it. The problem is that the IRS is asking me for $10k in estimated taxes for FY 2022 by mid-January [ I am self-employed]. They are basing this on my FY 2021 income, and FY 2022 income will be lower. How can I negotiate that downward, due to the lower income?
Typically, no. Estimated tax is based on the prior year and that is non-negotiable with the IRS. In this kind of case, we would recommend getting your 22 return filed in February and resubmitting the Offer with the new estimated tax requirement.
They say taxes are one of those certainties in life. Well here's one that's even more serious -- Someday each one of us will stand before God. Romans 14:12 says "So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God." When your day comes, where will your eternal home be? Jesus said “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."-- John 14:6 * "If you confess that Jesus is Lord and believe that God raised Him from death, you will be saved." -- Romans 10:9 *Romans 10:13 “Whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Even more IMPORTANT: Revelation 14:12 KJV - Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. Devils KNOW 'Jesus' and Tremble.... The faithful KEEP THE COMMADMENTS!
I don't recommend reaching out to the IRS, but what I do recommend is pulling your transcripts to see what your balance is and then getting the last 6 years filed. Administratively, the IRS only requires the last 6 years of tax returns.
A lot, if they start garnish your pay check and leave ya with 100 a week you will not even put gas on your vehicle. Settle payment or if your debt is more than 10k ask for fresh start, I just did today but can't say it works until I am out of it. I hope I wasn't scam I wouldn't be able to take that I still have my debt and on top 4000 in legal fees. Pray for me.

Hi there, love this video. Very informative. My husband and my self owe back taxes and would like to file an offer in compromise. When I fill out the pre qualifier on the irs website one of the questions is. Have you made all required estimated tax payments? If I answer no. It says I don’t quality. What is this question? If I made all estimated tax payment I wouldn’t need the offer in compromise. Thanks for your help
I filed exempt for the past 3 years was meaning to get off of it but as inflation rose I needed the money to support my family I recently switched it back to have my taxes withheld but I know I’m going to owe atleast 30k in back taxes can I get a IA or a OIC still? Or is it too late ?
@@TaxLawGuy my s-corp was audited for payroll taxes for years 2019,2020 and 2021 resulting in a situation where the salary paid to me as an officer/owner was lower than they said it should be. My s-corp was assessed 3 years of payroll taxes to be paid. Can my s-corp use an OIC or is that strictly for personal back tax?
@@luxuryrealty A S-Corp can do an OIC. The form, in addition to the 656, would be the 433-B (OIC). Keep in mind, in situations like this, we typically recommend a joint personal/business Offer in Compromise as compromised business payroll taxes (the trust fund portion) of the S Corp will become personal liabilities of the owner (Trust Fund Recovery Penalty).
I have liens against me because of my ex. (He owned a business and never paid his estimated taxes). The state absolved me of a all responsibility, the the IRS will not acknowledge the state order. I have no idea what to do. I really want to buy a house, but the lien is stopping me. I did try to file for Innocent Spouse, but they denied that too, even though my ex was abusive. Can you please help me?

Hi Lawyer, I am preparing form 433-F, and I have a couple questions for you as follows: 1) For section F related to Employment information or gross wage, does the IRS count voluntary contribution to retirement account such as 401K and add it into my net income? 2) For expenses. does the IRS take into account of my 401K loan and personal loan as my expenses? 3) For first time abbaitment, do I need to either pay my tax in full or have an installment payment agreement setup first? Thanks. Tammy

I have pension and 401K but I cant get to it until I leave the company. When I leave my company which will be soon, will they not consider the Offer In Compromise when I cash it out since it will show on my bank account statements? What if I withdrawal the money before I submit a OIC? I want to take that money for a down payment on a house but i need to get my back taxes paid first. Thank you for your help.
That would be considered a dissipated asset for purposes of the OIC. However, if it is required for a down payment on a house, an argument could be made that it was a necessary expense for the health and welfare of the household. Albeit, it would add equity to the house, which is an asset (but it may be negligible due to the quick-sale valuation rule). Basically - depending on what you owe - representation would be a good idea!
Hello, great information! Can you please tell me how long you would have to have the ‘money owed’ to IRS before you can submit OIC? 2021 taxes came back and I owe 10k
Hi again. So happy I found your videos. We have a federal tax lien if we file a offer in compromise and it is Approved What happens with the lien. Does it go away ?
My girlfriend didnt mark "0" on w4 so she was considered exempt from federal tax most of the year before being fixed. Now she has been informed she owes around $2500. I know taxes usually have to be filed by 04/15 but do you know when they would start auto withdrawing from paychecks?
Can you ask for Abate if you owe for making to much and have to pay back? I owe for last year and this year coming up. More then likely I’m owe them again after filling this year.
Generally, penalty abatements are not contingent on income - particularly the First Time Abatement. Your compliance and balance history are the most important factors.
I injured myself, I was driving semi, I owe back taxes I was making payments on and I didn't file for a couple years. I don't have money to pay for them to be done, is there anything I can do? Thank you very much
Dispite its claims, the IRS is a private/ commercial collection organization basically for the International Monetary Fund and World Bank. They technically only have limited taxing jurisdiction/ authority within the 10 square mile land area known as the District of Columbia.. On thier letters to you it says "Department of the Treasury." Why don't they say "United States Treasury Department or Office?" Because they are not part of any Federal Government agency. So it begs the question.... Department of WHO'S TREASURY.... Where's this treasury located?.... certainly not in some P.O. BOX. Wake up people we are being screwed out of our money to our detriment and PAYING FOR OUR OWN DEMISE!!!!
Some people in the comments here seem to say it is. My grandmother, on ss, isn't required to file. It shouldn't be, and is completely criminal if it is, in my opinion, as ss is money held by the government for retirement, as we work. It already got taxed, when it was gross income. If it is considered taxable..again..what a nightmare. Imma Google countries that are on their own gold standard😂
I owe back taxes for 2018, subsequently I have refund for 2019 and 2020 withheld by IRS. Does the 3-year statute of limitation apply? I mean will I not get my 2019 refund refunded to me because it will be 4 or 5 years old by the time the 2018 tax is straightened out? I think the IRS made a mistake in figuring out my tax due them. Thanks.
IRS tax debt has a 10-year statute of limitations. Refund have a 3-year statute of limitations, but it is from the date of your claim, not when they actually send the refund out.
