Frequently Asked Questions
What does a tax relief attorney in Cotuit do?
A tax relief attorney represents clients in IRS and Massachusetts DOR matters. They can negotiate tax debt settlements, handle audits, and stop wage garnishments or bank levies. They also help with innocent spouse relief and penalty abatement requests.
How long does Massachusetts have to collect back taxes?
Under Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 62C Section 31, the DOR generally has six years from the date of assessment to collect taxes. This time limit can be extended if you sign a waiver or if the statute is tolled. An attorney can help determine if the statute of limitations has expired on your tax debt.
Can a tax relief attorney stop a Massachusetts tax levy?
Yes a tax relief attorney can request a collection due process hearing to stop a levy. They can also negotiate a payment plan or an offer in compromise. Acting quickly is important because the DOR can levy bank accounts and wages without a court order.
