When you call, you won’t get a call center or salesperson. You’ll speak directly with an experienced former IRS employee and Certified Tax Resolution Specialist who understands exactly how the IRS operates and can guide you through your options

Your consultation is 100% confidential and comes with no obligation to use our services. Our goal is to help you understand your situation and explore solutions — whether you decide to move forward with us or not.

During your consultation, we’ll:

• Review any IRS notices or documents you have.
  

• Discuss your current tax situation, including overdue returns, wage garnishments, liens, or penalties.
  

• Identify immediate actions to stop collection activity and reduce stress.
  

Every case is unique, and our advice is tailored to your specific circumstances.

We will provide:

• An overview of the tax relief options available to you (e.g., Installment Agreements, Offer in Compromise, Penalty Abatement, Audit Defense).
  

• Step-by-step guidance on how to move forward.
  

• A clear explanation of the timeline, costs, and outcomes you can expect.

Even if your tax situation feels overwhelming, your consultation will help you regain control. You’ll leave the call with a clear understanding of your options, and the confidence that you have a professional on your side who knows how to protect your rights.

Not knowing where you stand with the IRS and not staying compliant with tax laws can lead to substitute tax returns, tax liens, garnishments seizures, and other enforcement actions.

ALTA Tax Relief provides appeals, audit defense, currently not collectible status, offer in compromise, garnishment release, installment agreements, penalty abatement, and tax lien resolution. Every case is unique, and we tailor solutions to your financial situation.

Our firm is led by a former IRS employee, giving us insider knowledge of IRS processes. Unlike companies that use salespeople, every consultation is handled by a Certified Tax Resolution Specialist. We’ve saved clients millions in tax debt and are dedicated to providing honest, personalized representation.

An Offer in Compromise lets you settle your tax debt for less than you owe if you can’t pay in full. We carefully evaluate eligibility, prepare documentation, and negotiate directly with the IRS on your behalf.

Yes. The IRS has the authority to garnish wages, seize bank accounts, or even levy Social Security benefits. However, our team can act quickly to file appeals, request a release, or negotiate a payment plan to stop these actions.

Currently Not Collectible (CNC) status pauses IRS collection activities if paying your debt would create financial hardship. While interest and penalties may still accrue, CNC provides breathing room until your situation improves. IRS taxes eventually expire, so you won’t owe them forever.

Yes. Through penalty abatement, we may be able to eliminate or reduce penalties if you have reasonable cause, such as illness, natural disaster, or a history of compliance. You might also qualify under First Time Penalty Abatement provisions.

An installment agreement allows you to pay your tax debt in manageable monthly payments. We negotiate terms with the IRS to lower payments and prevent further collection action.

A tax lien is the government’s claim against your property due to unpaid taxes. Tax liens attach to equity in assets. If you sell your home and a tax lien is filed on it, proceeds from the sale might have to be paid on the tax lien. A levy is garnihsment of assets (like wages or bank accounts). We help prevent or resolve both through negotiation and legal remedies.

Yes. While most of our cases involve the IRS, we also handle state tax debt relief and can negotiate directly with your state’s revenue department. We can also handle income tax owed to cities or other municipalities.

Generally, the IRS has 10 years from the date of assessment to collect. This is called the Collection Statute Expiration Date (CSED). In some cases, we can use this deadline to your advantage when negotiating relief options. Certain actions freeze the 10 year countdown like bankruptcy, offers in compromise, pending installment agreement, and Collection Due Process appeals.

Yes. The IRS requires taxpayers to be current with all filings before entering into any resolution programs. If you have missing returns, you need to establish a relationship with an accountant and get them prepared and filed.

The IRS may create a Substitute for Return (SFR) if you don’t file. These usually overstate taxes owed. You can file an original return to replace the SFR, often reducing your tax debt significantly. It is important to mail the originals to the right IRS address.

Yes. We assist self-employed individuals and business owners with sales and payroll tax issues, back taxes, and compliance strategies, including S-Corp formation to potentially reduce future tax burdens.

Bring any IRS notices or letters, recent tax returns, wage or income documents, and a list of your monthly expenses. This helps us evaluate your options accurately during the free consultation.

Every case is different. Costs depend on complexity, but we provide flat fees with no upcharges. This allows us to work on your behalf and not bill you by the hour.

Call us anytime, day or night, at (252) 203-0732 or fill out our website contact form. We offer a free 30-minute consultation with an ex-IRS employee to discuss your options and start building your tax relief strategy.
