IRS PROCEDURES

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?

First you will deal with the Service Center. They will be difficult to reach by phone and when they answer, they have no answers. Second, you will deal with the Automated Collection System which has poorly trained individuals operating under constant changes who will keep saying "Pay up" courteously. As time goes on, you will be dealing with a Revenue Officer. This person will be in charge of making you pay your taxes in the shortest period of time regardless of how much it hurts. The more experienced the Revenue Officer, the tougher for you to straighten out your taxes.

WILL THEY MAKE A DEAL TO PAY IT BACK?

Probably, but they will take advantage of the fact that you are unfamiliar with the systems and methods. The deal that you make might cause you to cry. You have no idea how the system works. You will not save money by representing yourself!!!!

NEW PROCEDURES

The IRS Restructuring and Reform Act of 1998 (H Rep 105-599) has made many changes in normal IRS procedures. Please click on the page that interests you or fits your situation.
