The process of resolving a tax issue with the IRS takes, on average, 6-12 months from the time you turn in all necessary tax documentation. The exact timeline is dependent upon the amount of tax liability you are working to resolve, the IRS program that you’re applying for, potential appeals hearings, etc. Once you are a Fiore Tax Resolution client, your Case Administrator will be able to provide a narrower timeline for resolving your IRS debt.

We treat each client and case as an individual and customize our work to their needs. This means that no case has the same time frame, as it truly depends on each individual’s tax scenario.

The process to qualify for a tax debt settlement is dependent on your personal financial situation. To find out if you qualify, schedule a complimentary consultation with one of our tax consultants, and be prepared to answer questions regarding your monthly income and expenses, additional assets to your name, and your total tax liability.

The Fresh Start program, also known as the Offer in Compromise, allows a taxpayer to settle their tax debt for a portion of the full amount owed when proven that the taxpayer is experiencing a financial hardship. If accepted, the Offer eliminates all outstanding balances with the IRS and releases any potential liens placed against the taxpayer.

While both are collection tools used by the IRS, a tax lien and a tax levy are not interchangeable terms. A lien is a claim to a taxpayer’s property due to a tax debt, while a levy is the actual action of seizing a taxpayer’s property.

Without protection in place, the IRS is legally allowed to seize your property or wages due to an unpaid tax liability.

As soon as you become a client of Fiore Tax Resolution, we immediately take over as your accountant on record and will pair you with one of our expert legal representatives and provide immediate protection from IRS collection activities, including working to release any potential liens or levies placed against you.

When trying to qualify for an Offer in Compromise, the IRS considers your tax liability in respect to your monthly income and expenses. Qualification for the OIC program is never based on tax liability or monthly income alone. Our team of tax experts will ask you the necessary questions to consider all financial factors and increase your likelihood of being eligible for the Offer in Compromise program.
