Wage Garnishments & Bank Levies

 

Did you just receive your paycheck and find out that your payday just went up in smoke? Did the IRS leave you enough money to pay the mortgage or for gas to get back to work? Call us now to put a stop to wage garnishments and bank levies.

Levy

A wage garnishment is a levy that is a legal seizure of your property to satisfy a tax debt. Levies are different from liens. A lien is a claim used as security for the tax debt, while a levy actually takes the property to satisfy the tax debt.

If you do not pay your taxes (or make arrangements to settle your debt), the IRS may garnish your wages, seize and sell any type of real or personal property that you own.  For instance,

.

The IRS could seize and sell property

that you hold (such as your car, boat,

or house), or they could levy property

that is yours but is held by someone else

(such as your wages, retirement

accounts, dividends, bank accounts,

licenses, rental income, accounts

receivables, the cash loan value of your

life insurance, or commissions).

 

The IRS will usually levy only after these

three requirements are met:

1.They have assessed the tax and sent

you a Notice and Demand for Payment;

2.You neglected or refused to pay the

tax; and 3. They  sent you a Final

Notice of Intent to Levy and Notice of

Your Right to A Hearing (levy notice)

at least 30 days before the levy. They

can give you this notice in person, leave

it at your home or your usual place of

business, or send it to your last known

address by certified or registered mail,

return receipt requested. Please note:

if the IRS levies your state tax refund,

you may receive a Notice of Levy on

Your State Tax Refund, Your Right to

Hearing after the levy.

You may ask an IRS manager to review

your case, or you may request a

Collection Due Process hearing with the

Office of Appeals by filing a request for a

Collection Due Process hearing with the

IRS office listed on your notice. You

must file your request within 30 days of

the date on your notice.

 

Some of the issues you may

discuss include:

 

*You paid all you owed before we sent

the levy notice,

*The IRS assessed the tax and sent the

levy notice when you were in bankruptcy,

and subject to the automatic stay during

bankruptcy,

*The IRS made a procedural error in an

assessment,

*The time to collect the tax

(called the statute of limitations) expired

before the IRS sent the levy notice,

*You did not have an opportunity to

dispute the assessed liability,

*You wish to discuss the collection

options,

*or you wish to make a spousal defense.

 

At the conclusion of your hearing, the

Office of Appeals will issue a

determination.You will have 30 days

after the determination date to bring a

suit to contest the determination. If your

property is levied or seized, contact the

IRS employee who took the action. You

also may ask the manager to review your

case. If the matter is still unresolved,the

manager can explain your rights to

appeal to the Officeof Appeals.

 

If the IRS files a levy on your bank

account, your bank must hold funds

you have on deposit, up to the amount

you owe, for 21 days. This holding period

allows for time to resolve any issues

that may result in a release of levy.

After 21 days, the bank must send the

money plus interest, if it applies,

to the IRS. To discuss your options, call

today.
