What makes Tax Advocate Group different from other tax firms?

We follow a structured three-phase process—Investigation, Compliance, and Resolution—that ensures we fully understand your situation before recommending a path forward. Our team includes enrolled agents and tax attorneys licensed in all 50 states, and we back our work with a money-back guarantee.

How does the tax resolution process work?

We file Power of Attorney to pull your IRS transcripts and assess your full tax picture. Next, we bring all unfiled returns current. Finally, we negotiate the best available resolution: an installment agreement, Offer in Compromise, penalty abatement, or Currently Not Collectible status.

Can you stop a wage garnishment or bank levy?

Yes. Once we file Power of Attorney, we contact the IRS or state agency to request an immediate release or reduction of the levy. In many cases, we can get garnishments stopped within days by demonstrating financial hardship or proposing an alternative arrangement.

Do you handle state tax problems?

Yes. We work with all 50 state tax authorities in addition to the IRS. State agencies have their own garnishment and lien procedures, and we know how to navigate each one.

Understanding Tax Relief: Solutions to Ease Your Financial Burden

Understanding Tax Relief

Tax relief can help individuals and businesses reduce their tax burdens through deductions, credits, settlements, and negotiations with the IRS. Understanding your options and the steps involved is key to securing the best outcome for your financial situation.

Common Forms of Tax Relief

There are several forms of tax relief available, each designed to address different financial hardships:

Tax deductions: Lower your taxable income, potentially reducing the amount of tax owed.

Tax credits: Directly decrease the tax liability dollar-for-dollar.

Offer in Compromise (OIC): Allows eligible taxpayers to settle their tax debt for less than what they owe.

Installment agreements: Enable taxpayers to pay their balance over time instead of as a lump sum.

Currently Not Collectible (CNC) status: Temporarily halts IRS collection efforts for those who cannot afford to pay at all.

Installment agreements: Require proof of income and a proposed repayment plan.

Tax credits and deductions: Vary based on eligibility criteria such as income level, expenses, and specific qualifying events.
