Defining Tax Resolution & Uncovering the Mysteries of the Industry

So, what exactly is tax resolution? Simply put, tax resolution is the process of assisting individuals who owe taxes in navigating the intricate landscape of settling their tax debt. This can be with various government entities, be it the state, the IRS, or even private collection agencies. We’ll dive deeper into that shortly.

Now, if you’re a straight shooter, who’s always on top of your tax obligations, you might wonder, “Well, that’s not fair, why do some people get a break? Shouldn’t everyone pay their taxes on time?” It’s a valid question. But here’s the thing: not everyone has the knowledge or resources at hand. Take, for instance, a person who starts a business. There’s no school teaching the ins and outs of the countless legal documents they now have to manage. Such oversights can lead to massive tax complications, causing significant hardships for them and their families.

But let’s not make it public discourse either. The bottom line is, that it’s more complex than it may seem. Now on the other hand, if you’re requiring help with your business integration, or dissolution or if you’re feeling the pressure of the government knocking at your door for unpaid taxes, this document is for you.

TAX RESOLUTION … IN THE TRADITIONAL SENSE

Chances are that you’ve heard of what tax resolution is—and it’s just as likely that you’re a bit weary of it, or it’s possible that you straight out don’t trust the practice—and you might have a valid point. Yes, allow me to explain. Tax Resolution companies, along with Law Firms that handle civil work, are not designed for the efficiency of solving cases. They’re designed to bill you for hours and for new opportunities. That’s right, they are in the sales industry business. Yes, just like the auto dealership, and the realtors that you so much dislike.

So how does this work? The process is straightforward. When you owe taxes the government authorities typically file a Federal Tax Lien for federal matters or a Tax Warrant for state-related issues. You might be familiar with this if you’ve ever received a Form 668(Y), known as the “Notice of Federal Tax Lien,” in your mailbox. Such notices are a matter of public record. The government issues them strategically to protect its interest in your assets, ensuring that other creditors are discouraged from extending further loans to you or preventing you from selling assets without settling the tax debt first.

Enter tax resolution firms. They sift through public federal tax liens and reach out to taxpayers—folks like you—one by one. Now, here’s the catch: the person on the other end of that call might not have the expertise you expect. Sure, they’re federally licensed, but many haven’t actually handled or resolved a single tax case. What they excel at is being amazing sales sharks, the kind who could sell ice to an Eskimo. I know because I’ve been there. Trust me, it’s impressive and even fun to watch; except for the part when they overinflate their promise for your money, of course.  So far, it doesn’t seem too bad, right? But then, why do cases drag on even after you’ve paid up?

WHY CASES STALL: THE WAY THE COOKIE CRUMBLES IN TAX RESOLUTION

Does this imply that the entire industry is fraudulent, and my case will never be managed by an expert? Not in the slightest. In reality, those who take on your case—based on my experience—are well-versed in tax law and adept at resolving such matters. The issue doesn’t lie with them, but with the system they operate within. As the old adage goes, hate the game, not the player. Let’s delve into it.

Remember that ace salesperson? After they’ve promised you the moon and the stars and told you you’ll only pay pennies on the dollar, your file is handed over to a seasoned associate to tackle your case. But here’s where things get tricky: even if this associate is federally licensed, has years under their belt, holds a degree, or is even an attorney in some situations, they earn a minimum wage. Thus, being efficient at solving cases is actually frowned upon. I know right!

I’ve had the inside scoop from folks in both law and resolution firms, and it’s a bit shocking: often, the least favored or least effective (by the firm’s standards) professionals are the ones who wrap up cases quickly. As we touched on earlier, even with their extensive training and know-how, these pros earn just the base salary. In law firms, there’s a nudge to find ways to bill clients for more hours. In tax resolution firms, the push is to bill for additional cases. This creates a system where there’s zero incentive for a skilled professional to close your case swiftly and efficiently.

To worsen the problem, firms keep adding to their caseloads. Some sincere, hard-grinding associates, hustling to earn their keep, find themselves drowning in a sea of cases—we’re talking hundreds here—that have been left in limbo for months or even years. So in a system that’s so inconvenient, what options do you have?
