Having problems determining who should have paid the tax liability on a joint  return? Did your spouse get all the money from wages or a investment transaction and you got stuck with the bill.? Call us and let us explain how you may be able to reduce or eliminate the liability that has been accessed to you.

Introduction

Unfortunately, in marriage and life, everything is not always "Happily Ever After". If that is the case, now what ? ? ? ?

If you filed

• a joint return

or

• a married filing separately return while living in a community property state
  and your situation is not "Happily Ever After"; then you may need to call us.

Many married taxpayers choose to file a joint tax return because of certain benefits this filing status allows. Both taxpayers are jointly and individually responsible for the tax and any interest or penalty due on the joint return even if they later divorce. This is true even if a divorce decree states that a former spouse will be responsible for any amounts due on previously filed joint returns. One spouse may be held responsible for all the tax due even if all the income was earned by the other spouse.

In some cases, a spouse will be relieved of the tax, interest, and penalties on a joint tax return. Three types of relief are available.

1. Innocent spouse relief.
2. Separation of liability.
3. Equitable relief.

You can only qualify for equitable relief if you do not qualify for innocent spouse relief or relief by separation of liability.

You are not required to figure the tax, interest, and penalties that qualify for relief. The IRS will figure these amounts after you file Form 8857, Request for Innocent Spouse Relief.

 Each type of relief has different requirements. Call us at (415) 374-3498, so that we can explain the rules for each type of relief. See if you qualify for any type of relief.

Don’t let a tax stranglehold ruin your credit, stop you from refinancing, or reduce the amount of money you receive from savings or client income, if self employed. Don’t let a levy put you out of business.

Your IRS tax debts require immediate action.

Ignoring the IRS will not make them go away.
