About Us
Scared of Tax Issues?? I clarify the questions into basic information.
.
I am highly motivated to help those in tax trouble to go on with their lives.
.
As I am an Enrolled Agent. My entire Federal Licensing examinations were all Tax Based questions.
.
I hold the highest awarded credential the IRS can award.
.
Each year the IRS posts the count of Enrolled Agents in the WORLD. That current count is between 40,000 to 50,000 who earned the credential and are registered.
.
I have an extensive background ranging from teacher, computer project manager, corporate administrator, negotiator, in short, many hats to provide many skills to HELP YOU!
.
In my Masters Program, my faculty advisor was Herbert Bienstock, the former director of the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
.
My law professor was Samuel Kaynard, Esq. one of the directors of the National Labor Relations Board.
.
As a student, they both sent me to Columbia, NYU and occasionally to Cornell to research legal cases for them, thus I learned how to read and interpret Labor Related Law and Contract Law.
.
These are skills I use in representation cases to untangle Title 26, our tax laws.
.
What I am and What I am not:
.
I am an Enrolled Agent, I am not an attorney. I am not a CPA.
.
The CPA is restrained to do a full audit for business loans in most cases.
.
The E.A. is not required to do a full audit, nor can the E.A. do a Certified Audit.
.
The CPA is the only one who can do a Certified Audit.
.
I have an extremely effective working relationship with the IRS and state authorities.
.
I am happy to discuss any of these points or tax issues with you in a limited initial phone conversation, at no cost to you.

In general I am not the first to reply, yet I have worked remote for over twenty years in Arizona. The work I do, does not require a formal corporate office. I represent tax payers when they have any form of U.S. Income Tax Matters in all of the states. So no, working from home is not an issue, rather it is an assistance as the hours are mostly my setting of time with quiet evenings to get work done and do the tax research.
The biggest success was when a restaurant had four cents off in an IRS audit on the payroll.
To accommodate the issue I reviewed the two years of payroll the IRS agent noted. The pennies were insignificant, but the IRS auditor knew I was a new Enrolled Agent so I 'jumped the hoop'.

The biggest success was when a restaurant had four cents off in an IRS audit on the payroll.
To accommodate the issue I reviewed the two years of payroll the IRS agent noted. The pennies were insignificant, but the IRS auditor knew I was a new Enrolled Agent so I 'jumped the hoop'.
Once the two years of payroll were corrected the IRS agent became a resource 'as long as' I did not divulge the client for guidance on working in the IRS listing of the IRM.
I did have an IRS resource for correct compliance and assistance in helping the tax client. That IRS Revenue Officer has retired, but the guidance was an excellent assistance for use in helping taxpayers in their issues.
That training was how I preferred to assist taxpayers who have tax issues. When I see that the tax clients who had issues are no longer under pressure and have 'moved on' with their lives as a result of the tax issues resolution I am gratified to see the taxpayer move on and I then can assist another tax payer with their issues.
I specialize in representing taxpayers who have tax issues and cannot afford my colleagues to assist those tax payers.
My goal is to assist taxpayers resolve their tax issues with as little stress that can be done.
As I am an Enrolled Agent, I can assist any taxpayer in any jurisdiction of the IRS and each state issues.
I work with the various state's managers and the IRS, normally with a Revenue Officer who is assigned by the manager in the state the client lives to work on the case and have resolution for the tax payer to 'move on' with their lives.
This is a different approach - to consider the taxpayer's needs and remove as much stress as possible.

A tax lien is NOT a Tax Levy. A Tax Lien is the IRS or the involved state protecting themselves to be sure that if you sold your business the tax authority is first in line to be paid. The TAX LIEN is a wake-up call by the tax authority that you owe money and you need to get a form of...

A tax lien is NOT a Tax Levy. A Tax Lien is the IRS or the involved state protecting themselves to be sure that if you sold your business the tax authority is first in line to be paid. The TAX LIEN is a wake-up call by the tax authority that you owe money and you need to get a form of resolution going before the tax authority issues the Tax Levy. A tax Levy is when the tax authority goes to your finances and draws from your bank what amount you owe. Without all the details no one can provide a definitive answer to your question. There are time limits at which the remaining liability will expire, which, if your liability exceeds the offered resolution payments the remainder will be removed by the tax authority once the time limit is completed without you missing any agreed upon payments. Again without your financial information there is no way to provide the exact issue to you. You have had some of the financial options presented. As an Enrolled Agent, I do hold Federal Jurisdiction to represent tax payers in any state for all forms of U.S. Income Tax Matters. Depending on your issue and tax background you may qualify for the removal of the penalty and interest. Sometimes taking the installment agreement may be a savings in the long time in stead of the quick 60 month Installment agreement , as already stated, you may be paying a portion of the liability and when the statute ends you may have paid less than the total liability.
No one can give you a clear answer without knowing all the details and your tax history to know if there is an option to remove penalty and interest.
Quick answer as three days left for tax returns to be filed. The extension prevents the taxpayer from having the high rate of 4.5% penalty and interest each month if not filed by April 15th for non-businesses and March 15th for business [noting that single members LLC that are using schedule C...

The payment penalty and interest is ONE HALF OF ONE PERCENT [1/2 of 1%per month. ]
Not a perfect solution but the extension does cut the penalty down quite a bit, and depending on the circumstances they can be removed.
Yes, however the lesser of the issues is the extension if you do not have your data ready.
The penalty for failure to pay is 1/2 a percent of your liability per month late.
For failure to file the penalty is 4.5% if you do not have an extension -
The lesser of the two is to file the...

The lesser of the two is to file the extension and then work on the correct data to file the return as soon as the taxpayer can organize their issues.
There are two possibilities to remove the penalty and interest.
If for the 3 immediate prior years there were no lateness or IRS issues and the taxpayer had not had any before there is a one time abatement - or if there is one of the Reasonable Cause issues that you can prove, again the penalty and interest can be requested for removal.
I do representation for clients who have these issues and are not aware of what or how it happened.
All Enrolled Agents are licensed by the IRS to specifically represent taxpayers on these issues.
The sooner you respond the lesser of penalties. Yes the penalties can increase up to 25% for both failure to pay and 25% for failure to file, however most often the taxpayer, with reasonable issues, would be in the lower bracket by working with a representative who is experienced in these issues.
If you have one of these issues or if you are a practitioner who does not do representation contact me via text at 928-710-9074 with your name, best time to call you,and your location.
All Enrolled Agents hold the Federal License to represent before any location of the IRS or any taxation issue for any form of U.S. Income Tax Matters; specifically for clients assistance.
