Extended Office Hours Tax & Tax Debt & Tax Audit Call-In
Event Information
Event description
Description
Maybe a typical CPA or tax preparer doesn't have time to talk
during "tax season;" but I'm really not in the tax preparation business.
I'm a tax attorney available to help people year 'round.
Why not talk to a tax attorney familiar with the process from books to
return to penalty and criminal entanglement?
The fax line can be reached for single private uninterrupted calls on
extended office hours today, Friday, March 6, 2020, from 5 pm - 7pm.
After Hours Tax Call-In Number: (562)594-4414
Regular call line available anytime (562)594-9784
Helpful Hints:
(1) Good, detailed, complete reconstruction of records can work, but
sloppy, incomplete sketchy reconstruction of records is likely to fail.
(2) Take & exercise each and every one of the opportunities to make
yourself heard before IRS at every available procedural chance to
express your position.
(3) Underreporting income is far worse than attempting to take excessive
deductions because it more closely resembles evasion.
(4) Many citizens forget that willful failure to pay tax is a form of
evasion. It's best to make a significant effort to pay toward your tax
debt to avoid a willful avoidance form of evasion.
(5) IRS has for years operated under a "first contact rule" where IRS
will generally refrain from referring a case for criminal prosecution
where IRS is contacted first. Few consider using this principle before
its too late.
(6) Many taxpayers don't know that there is a 10-year collection statute
that can limit the government's ability to collect a tax debt. Many
taxpayers also don't know that the statute can be effectively moved out
of effective reach by tolling events.
(7) Not many are aware that government user fees (such as for
offers-in-compromise, bankruptcy, installment agreements, and more) are
waived for low-income taxpayers.
(8) If you prepare and file your own returns, that's good. It means
that you know the nature and extent of your income and deductions. It
also means that you won't either be conspiring with a tax preparer (a
crime), nor being hung out to dry based upon a disclosure intake form
you signed and gave it to a preparer.
(9) Many citizens value the "monitor & take remedial action when the
time is right" option. However few practitioners are willing to research
this option in lieu of taking an action NOW, that may not be what the
taxpayer needs or wants.
