IRS Revenue Officer or IRS Agent Contacting You?

If you’ve been contacted by an IRS Revenue Officer or Agent, you have a real problem that is going to require your immediate attention.  Revenue Officers are elite group within the ranks of the collections division, specializing in businesses, employment and payroll taxes, tax avoiders, non-filers, or anyone deemed to be a repeat offender.  If you’ve been contacted be forewarned, you’ve have been prioritized and marked by the IRS.

Agent protocol is to show up unannounced at your place of employment or home. They will not be avoided or ignored for long, as they are local field agents who live and work in your area. If they cannot contact you or believe you are being uncooperative, they carry the power of summons to bring you into their territory at the time of their choosing by force of law. If you do not respond to the summons, you will find yourself in court. You may already have experienced a wage garnishment or a levy on your bank account – but your situation will continue to escalate with the officer on your case until you negotiate a solution with this person, or hire an experienced professional to get between you and the IRS.

What can an IRS Revenue Officer Do?

Jack W. Wade, JR., a former IRS Revenue Officer and author of Confessions of an IRS Agent writes:

The IRS revenue officers are among the most powerful people in government. Ten days after demanding payment the IRS can seize a taxpayer’s house, car, land, or business for subsequent sale at public auction. They can serve a levy on a third party, such as a bank, an employer, or anyone who owes the taxpayer money. If they suspect you might skip town without paying they can seize right away. All of this can be done without a court order. And if they so desire they can file a Notice of Federal Tax Lien at the local courthouse, which freezes a taxpayer’s titles to property and puts the IRS at the head of the line of creditors.

So if you’re thinking about fixing your tax problem yourself and you’ve already been contacted by an IRS Revenue Officer or IRS Agent, ask yourself these questions:

1. Are you a tax professional with experience dealing with IRS Revenue Officers or IRS Agents?
2. Can you afford to have your tax levy or wage garnishment drag on indefinitely?
3. Do you know what questions an IRS Revenue Officer will be asking and how best to answer? 
4. Do you know how to keep a vehicle an IRS Revenue Officer might try to seize?
5. Are you aware of special provisions that might give you or your business some temporary or permanent tax relief?

 If you answered “No” to any of these questions, you owe it to yourself to get professional help on your side. Revenue Officers are the “A-Team” for the IRS.  If you have been contacted by the IRS – you have a real problem that takes a real tax professional to get you a real solution. Because what you don’t know will cost you!
