IRS NOTICE DECODER

Got a letter from the IRS? Here's what it means.

IRS notices arrive in a set order, and each one moves closer to collection. Find your notice to see exactly where you stand.

CP14

IRS Notice CP14 is the first balance due notice sent by the IRS when you owe unpaid federal taxes. It outlines the total amount owed, including any penalties and accrued interest, explains why the balance is due, and provides payment options along with the deadline to avoid additional charges. Taxpayers should review the notice carefully, verify the information, and either pay the balance in full or contact the IRS to discuss available payment arrangements if they cannot pay immediately.

“I had an excellent experience working with this accounting firm. I started using their services this year, and I’m confident they’ll be handling my taxes for years to come. As a self-employed handyman, I had a lot of questions about my taxes. Their team guided me through the entire process, prepared all the necessary documents quickly and accurately, and made everything easy to understand. They are professional, knowledgeable, and responsive. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable accounting and tax services.”

PROGRAMS PREVIEW

The programs that resolve IRS balance

Offer in Compromise

Settle your tax liability for a fraction of what you owe. If you qualify, the IRS may accept a lump-sum payment that is significantly less than your total balance. We’ve helped clients settle hundreds of thousands of dollars in tax debt for pennies on the dollar.

IRS Fresh Start Program

The IRS Fresh Start Initiative makes it easier for taxpayers to pay back taxes and avoid tax liens. Our team will determine if you qualify and guide you through every step of the process.

Installment Agreements

Owe the IRS for past years? Whether it’s a few thousand or a few hundred thousand, we’ll explore every option to resolve your back tax liability - including programs that could reduce what you owe.

Penalty Abatement

IRS penalties can add thousands of dollars to your tax bill. If you have reasonable cause, we can petition the IRS to remove or reduce penalties, potentially saving you a significant amount.

Currently Not Collectible (CNC)

Dealing with tax liability caused by a spouse or former spouse? You shouldn’t be held responsible for their mistakes. We help qualifying individuals get relief from joint tax liabilities they didn’t cause.

Levy & Lien Release

Resolve tax liens and levies with professional guidance and support. We help individuals address outstanding tax issues, protect their assets, and pursue relief while working toward a more manageable financial future.
