When individuals or businesses fail to pay their taxes owed to the IRS, the government may place a legal claim, known as a tax lien, on their property and assets. This lien serves as a way for the IRS to secure the unpaid tax debt and ensures that the government has the right to collect the owed taxes from the sale of the property or assets.
At Tax Alliance, we specialize in helping individuals and businesses navigate the complexities of IRS tax liens. With our years of experience and in-depth knowledge of tax laws and regulations, we have successfully assisted numerous clients in resolving their tax lien issues and achieving favorable outcomes.

An IRS tax lien is a legal claim imposed by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) against a taxpayer's property or assets as collateral for unpaid tax debts. It serves as a way for the government to secure the owed taxes and ensures that the IRS has a priority claim over other creditors if the taxpayer's property is sold.
1. Notice of Federal Tax Lien (NFTL): When a taxpayer owes back taxes and fails to pay them after receiving notices and demands for payment, the IRS may file a Notice of Federal Tax Lien (NFTL). This document informs creditors and the public that the IRS has a legal claim against the taxpayer's property.
2. Recording of the Tax Lien: The NFTL is typically recorded with the county or state where the taxpayer resides or where the property is located. Once recorded, the tax lien becomes public record, affecting the taxpayer's credit score and ability to obtain loans or credit.
3. Effect on Property and Assets: An IRS tax lien attaches to all of the taxpayer's property and assets, including real estate, personal property, and financial assets. It can also affect future property acquired by the taxpayer while the lien is in place.
- Credit Score: IRS tax liens negatively impact the taxpayer's credit score, making it difficult to obtain loans, credit cards, or financing for major purchases.
- Property Ownership: Taxpayers with IRS tax liens may face restrictions on selling or refinancing their property until the lien is resolved.
- Business Operations: For businesses, IRS tax liens can hinder day-to-day operations, limit access to credit, and damage relationships with suppliers or vendors.
1. Review the Notice: Carefully review the NFTL to understand the amount owed, the deadline for responding, and any options available to you.
2. Assess Your Finances: Evaluate your financial situation to determine how you can address the tax debt. Gather relevant financial documents to understand your assets, income, and expenses.
3. Contact the IRS: Reach out to the IRS to discuss your options for resolving the tax lien. You may be able to negotiate a payment plan, request an offer in compromise, or explore other relief options.
1. Payment Plan: Negotiate a payment plan with the IRS to repay the tax debt over time in manageable installments.
2. Offer in Compromise: Explore the possibility of settling the tax debt for less than the full amount owed through an offer in compromise.
3. Release or Withdrawal: Request a release or withdrawal of the tax lien by paying the debt in full, demonstrating financial hardship, or presenting other valid reasons.
4. Dispute the Lien: If you believe the tax lien is incorrect or unjust, you may have grounds to dispute it through various means, such as innocent spouse relief or proving financial hardship.
- Expert Guidance: A tax professional can provide expert guidance and advice on the best course of action for resolving IRS tax liens based on your individual circumstances.
- Negotiation and Representation: A tax professional can negotiate with the IRS on your behalf and represent you in discussions regarding payment plans, offers in compromise, or challenges to the tax lien.
- Protection of Rights: A tax professional can ensure that your rights are protected throughout the process and help you navigate the complexities of IRS procedures and regulations.
1. Evaluation of the Client's Situation and IRS Notices:
We begin by conducting a comprehensive evaluation of the client's situation, including reviewing any IRS notices related to the tax lien. We carefully assess the amount owed, the assets and income of the taxpayer, and any available options for resolving the tax debt.
2. Communication with the IRS on Behalf of Clients:
Once we have a clear understanding of the client's situation, we initiate communication with the IRS on behalf of our clients. We respond to IRS notices, provide requested documentation, and engage in discussions with IRS representatives to explore options for resolving the tax lien.
3. Negotiation for Release or Withdrawal of Tax Liens:
Our ultimate goal is to secure the release or withdrawal of the tax lien to minimize the impact on our clients' finances. We negotiate with the IRS to explore alternative arrangements, such as payment plans, offers in compromise, or other relief options. We advocate for our clients' interests and work tirelessly to achieve the most favorable outcome possible.
