Take Charge of Back Taxes Before They Take Charge of You
The IRS can seize your wages, freeze your bank accounts, and leave you trapped in debt. Let us step in, control your back taxes, and make sure the IRS doesn’t tap into your assets and property!
Ignoring Back Taxes Is Riskier Than You Think!
If you fail to file your taxes on time, expect a 5% penalty per month, adding up to 25% of your total tax bill in just a few months. Even if you file but don’t pay the full amount, you’ll face a 0.5% penalty per month on the unpaid balance, which can touch 25% of the total owed.
What’s more? The interest just keeps piling up. For unpaid taxes before July 1, 2016, interest is charged at 12% annually. For taxes due after, the interest is based on the Federal Reserve rate plus an additional 3%, and it can adjust every year. This means your debt keeps bloating until it’s resolved.

Ignoring Red Flags Could Leave You with No Funds Left!

Unfiled Tax Returns for Any Year
Review your tax filings from previous years to ensure that you filed all necessary returns and paid any taxes due.
IRS CP14 Notice (Balance Due)
A CP14 notice indicates that you are being formally notified by the IRS of back taxes. This is a clear signal that penalties and interest are already building up.
IRS Notice of Federal Tax Lien
If your property is under the threat of liens, it means the IRS has started to secure your assets to cover unpaid taxes. This can severely impact your ability to sell property or access credit.
Wage Garnishment Notice
Receiving a notification that the IRS plans to garnish your wages means they are prepared to take your income directly. This is a serious escalation in tax collection efforts.
Bank Account Levy
A bank levy simply means that the IRS has been taking away funds directly from your bank account to cover unpaid taxes. You’ll immediately lose access to your funds once this happens.
Reduced Tax Refunds
If your tax refund is smaller than expected or missing altogether, the IRS may have offset it to cover back taxes. This is a clear sign that unpaid taxes are on record.
Consistent IRS Letters Regarding Unpaid Balances
If you receive multiple letters from the IRS mentioning your outstanding balance, they are actively pursuing collection. Ignoring these will lead to more aggressive collection measures.

Our Process of Filing Back Taxes
First Meeting
The more we know you, the better we understand your situation. That’s why we sit for a one-on-one meeting to review your tax situation. During this session, we gather all the information needed to ensure the right steps are taken for your case.

Review Your Tax History
This is where we start to examine your tax records to identify which years need filing. We calculate any back taxes, penalties, or interest you owe to address your exact obligations.

Create a Filing Plan
Based on the review, we create a detailed filing plan to tackle your back taxes. We prioritize filings that can reduce penalties and focus on resolving the most urgent issues first.

Communicate with the IRS
If necessary, we’ll directly communicate with the IRS on your behalf to address any issues with your back taxes and work toward a smooth resolution.

Explore Resolution Options
We review all available resolution options, such as setting up a payment plan or negotiating an offer in compromise, to help settle your outstanding tax debt.

Monitor and Follow-Up
After filing, we monitor your case, ensuring all issues are resolved. Get advice on maintaining future tax compliance to avoid similar problems.

Out of all the consequences of unpaid taxes, losing your driving license and house is one of the most serious. Ignoring your tax issues in Georgia or absolutely anywhere else puts you at risk of suspension, affecting your daily life and mobility.


How Many Years Later Can You File Back Taxes?
If you’re behind on your taxes, you might wonder how many years later you can file back taxes. In the U.S., there is no strict deadline for filing back taxes, but it’s important to file them as soon as possible to avoid growing penalties and interest. The IRS generally expects you to file returns for the last six years if you haven’t been filing regularly.
The sooner you file, the faster you can stop penalties and interest from stacking up. Plus, the longer you wait, the harder it gets to find the paperwork you need. Why wait?
“For years, I’ve helped people tackle their back taxes with care and expertise. With expert tax advisors and former IRS agents on board, we ensure the process is precise and stress-free. You don’t have to face this alone—we’re here to guide you every step of the way toward a fresh financial start.”
