Taxpayers with IRS problems are being cold-called or are receiving letters from companies urgently seeking contact and promising that your tax problems can be easily resolved. Some companies are being creative, sending out letters to taxpayers that contain personal information which often mimic official IRS letters. Companies gain access to personal information due to a tax lien being filed by the IRS.
Can I really settle my taxes for less than I owe?
The simple answer to this question is maybe. The more accurate answer, it depends on your current financial situation because not all taxpayers qualify. Even if you are qualified by IRS criteria, the resolution process can be lengthy and expensive.
