Frequently Asked Questions
What tax issues can a Watsonville tax relief attorney help with?
A tax relief attorney can help with IRS audits, tax liens, wage garnishments, bank levies, and unfiled tax returns. They also assist with offers in compromise and penalty abatement. For California state issues, they handle disputes with the Franchise Tax Board and the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration.
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 back taxes. This is known as the Collection Statute Expiration Date (CSED). California state tax debt also has a 10 year statute of limitations under California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 19255.
What is an Offer in Compromise and how does it work in California?
An Offer in Compromise allows you to settle your tax debt for less than the full amount owed. To qualify, you must show that paying the full amount would cause financial hardship. The IRS considers your income, expenses, and asset equity. California has a similar program called the Offer in Compromise for state taxes.
