Late taxes are two words that can have a profound impact on your finances. If you feel like you're drowning and don't know where to turn, our team is ready to dive in and work through this issue with you.
Late taxes are always bad news, whether it's late to file or late to pay. If you don't file by the tax filing deadline, you might be looking at a penalty. This penalty is usually higher than the penalty you can get from not paying your taxes on time, so even if you aren't able to pay your owed taxes by the due date, you should absolutely still file on time.
If you're concerned about filing your taxes and not being able to pay, there are multiple options to help you, including installment agreements and loans. On the other hand, you can start accruing penalties for late filing as soon as the day after the filing deadline.
Unfiled tax returns can result in wage garnishment, which will allow the IRS to take your money or property. In some cases when you fail to file your tax returns, the IRS may consider it tax evasion which could land you jail time or a very hefty fine.
You may also be issued an SFR. This is a substitute for the return, so you will be taxed with zero exemptions or deductions. Refiling after an SFR significantly increases your audit risk. In other cases you'll have to pay the failure to file penalty mentioned earlier.
Not paying your taxes on time usually results in a failure-to-pay penalty. Like the late filing penalty, the late payment penalty can also start accruing the day after your payment deadline. If you think you're going to be late in paying your taxes, act sooner rather than later.
You can request a time extension, which could drastically reduce or completely remove the penalty so long as you show a reasonable cause for why your payment will be late. At this time, you'll be given a new, extended due date that you will have to pay your taxes by.
This involves the IRS seizing funds from your bank account to pay what you owe on taxes. It does this by either freezing or placing a hold on the account, after which you have 21 days to pay the IRS before the bank does it for you.
A levy also allows the IRS to legally seize your property in order to settle your tax debt. In addition to being able to take money from the bank and potentially your property, it also allows the IRS to sell vehicles and garnish wages. Before you reach the point of an IRS levy, reach out to our tax professionals. We're ready to answer all of your questions and help you find the best solution.
If you fail to pay income taxes or other taxes, a tax lien may be imposed upon your personal or real property. It allows property, or money from the property owner, to be taken.
When things get this serious, many people go into "flight" mode, trying to ignore the problem and buy time. Ignoring the call of the IRS isn't going to make them disappear, but there are options out there to help you, and we've dedicated our careers to finding them.

If you're an employer, you know the importance of making your federal payroll tax payments, as well as filing your informational returns. You have to provide employees with 1099 or W-2 reports, detailing the amounts paid and withheld. When a business starts to struggle, payrolls being filed or paid late becomes more likely, but it's one of the worst things that can happen to a struggling business.
Due to increasing tax collection efforts towards businesses, the IRS could potentially seize assets or shut the business down entirely if they feel it's necessary. Our professionals are very experienced in dealing with payroll and corporate taxes. Before it reaches the point of catastrophe, let us help your business stay afloat!
