The Levy can not be removed. Now, you can contact the IRS directly and request to file an "Offer In Compromise". This form is to help resolve your back taxes and might help save your business, by offering to pay a portion of what is due and if accepted by the IRS, they will write off the remaining balance. You must keep your agreement with them; do not set amount higher than what you can pay them. When accepted, you must pay any current years taxes when due. Should you default, they will start the levy process over and you stand to lose more.  Bear in mind, that you will have to report any and all money obtained in your hands. They will verify everything. You are asking for them to relieve your debt thus, they will examine your entire financial. OFFER IN COMPROMISE is the solution.  If you need further info, contact me at my email address.  Good Luck - THIS IS THE ROUTE TO TAKE!!

It is possible to negotiate with the government to get your tax debt reduced.  I suspect this will only happen if it is realistic to expect that the debt won't be paid at all otherwise.  A personal accountant could probably help for under $1K.

Yes.  Charging off is just an accounting term, and most companies do this after a certain period of no payment.  This does not make the debt disappear.  You still owe the debt, so they can sue until the statute of limitations runs out in your state.

I send in checks.  If the amount that I owe is a lot, I usually send in some of it and a note along with the check stating when I will be able to pay the balance.  IRS does work with you.\n\nAlso, I get any refunds direct deposited into my account.

Honestly there is no way online. If you do find something then you will have to pay out money at the beginning plus have to pay your own taxes out of your checks. ( No money taken from your checks meaning you set money back for the end of the year)

What is the question?\n\nYou should speak to an accountant so that you won't get penalized by the IRS.

Yes, I'm pretty sure that they can do that. I've known people who have had this happen to them, and there is really nothing you can do, except ask the company if you can pay it back gradually over time.

Yes you can file it. If they owe you money the time has ran out to get it back. They only go back 3 yrs. If you owe them money you might have to pay penalties. I know it is better for you to file it late if you owe than to have them open it up.

I researched this a little bit.  \n\nIf the creditor decides to write off your debt, he can report it on his taxes as a "bad debt".  They are also required to fill out a 1099C. Normally a copy goes to bot the IRS and the consumer.  But many times the collector "neglects" to send you a copy.\n\nNow what?  You file your taxes, the government sends you a bill for the unpaid tax and/or any penalties.\n\nWorse...it could trigger an audit.\n\nDo the credit card companies send in 1099's regularly?  Don't know, still searching for data on it.

You have to call the IRS office.

What other information do you need?\n\n1) Negotiate an offer to pay the debt. \n\n2) Demand that they agree IN WRITING to delete any negative information from your credit reports.\n\n3) Demand that if you are only paying a portion of the debt, they agree to consider this debt "paid in full" and give you a letter saying that!  Otherwise they could sell the remaining portion of this debt to another collection agency.\n\n4) DO NOT pay them a dime until you get these agreements.  Get the entire agreement IN WRITING explaining how much you will be paying each month.\n\nA sample letter is below.

Contact them as soon as possible to set up a payment plan.  Most government agencies are willing to work with you on that.  I've seen people pay as little as $20/month on debts owed to the government.  Depending on your situation, they may even take off any interest or late fees.  Just make sure you contact them before they start garnishing your wages.  You do NOT want that to happen...depending on the debt, they can take as much as 25% of your disposable income.  Good luck!

No.  This is a no-brainer.  But don't take my word for it - call the IRS directly, they will actually tell you what the law allows.
