Stop Garnishment of Wages
Wage Garnishment
(also called a "Wage Levy") is one of the most frequent
methods employed by the IRS to collect what is owed them, and it invariably puts a serious
roadblock in the financial life of a taxpayer - often without any
prior warning!
When a taxpayer has repeatedly failed to pay a tax obligation or has defaulted on a
Payment Plan, then a Notice of Intent to Levy goes out to
that taxpayer's employer, instructing them to withhold a portion of
their wages and pay those wages directly to the IRS instead. It
should be noted that the employer has no authority to refuse the
Wage Garnishment.
A Wage Levy can be particularly painful when a taxpayer is already
experiencing financial difficulties, and so sometimes just proving
hardship and Uncollectable Status is enough to have the
Garnishment released. More frequently, however, lifting a Wage Levy
requires entering into some kind of repayment agreement with the
IRS. For instance, if a taxpayer decides to file an Offer
in Compromise, then IRS Collection Action will be put on hold
while the taxpayer works out the details of the settlement.
If you have been notified of a Wage Garnishment DO NOT IGNORE IT, no matter how unpleasant dealing with
the problem may seem. When prepared properly, the IRS must answer
your request for release within ten working days.
