When looking
for tax resolution representation, be suspicious of these types of companies.
Companies that promise that you can settle for pennies on the dollar or what is
also known as offer in compromise. In most cases, the taxpayer should have
never filed the offer in the first place. The IRS in 2010 accepted fewer than
14,000 offers in compromise total. Evan Wolf founder of Wolf Tax Consultants
explained, "We love nothing more than to get a successful offer in
compromise accepted, however knowing when to file one is based upon thoroughly
evaluating their financial situation." Also, be aware of companies that
are charging you a lot of money for services that are not very complicated.
Reputable companies should have a standard price for specific work and not base
it upon how much they think you can pay. These types of companies also like to
charge a very high retainer. Be careful paying for work that is not completed
yet. These companies like to take your money and not do the work. Make sure to
follow-up and keep in touch with these companies to make sure they are actually
doing work on your file. Last situation to be leery of is the letters that you
receive in the mail that you think are from the IRS, but in fact they are from
a company trying to lure you in. Make sure who you call is a real company and
they are not sending you to another company that you do not know or trust.
We know that
you work hard for your money; therefore there is no reason to throw it away.
However, by hiring the right company you can save a lot of money. The bottom
line, no one can tell you what IRS settlement program you qualify for until
they thoroughly review your financial situation. Make sure the company you call
is not selling you false hope. No matter what situation you are currently in,
if you have a company representing you or not, Wolf Tax will treat you fairly,
give you an honest evaluation of your situation, propose a strategy and
successfully execute that strategy.
