Frequently Asked Questions
What does a tax relief attorney in Stockton do?
A tax relief attorney helps you negotiate with the IRS and California Franchise Tax Board to reduce tax debt or set up payment plans. They can represent you in audits, appeals, and collection actions. This includes filing an Offer in Compromise or requesting penalty abatement under California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 19132.
How long does the IRS have to collect back taxes in California?
The IRS generally has 10 years from the date of assessment to collect taxes under Internal Revenue Code Section 6502. In California, the Franchise Tax Board also has a 10 year statute of limitations for collection. An attorney can help stop the clock by filing certain requests.
Can a tax relief attorney stop wage garnishment in Stockton?
Yes, a tax relief attorney can file a Collection Due Process hearing request to stop IRS wage garnishment. For California state tax levies, the attorney can request a hearing with the Franchise Tax Board. This action pauses collection while the case is reviewed.
