Any attorneys out there? Tax lien situation whereby IRS has garnished wages to the point of poverty; remedies?


This info is for a freind whom has consulted w/ an atty. and stated that the only option is a settlement. This party does not have the money for a settlement nor enough assets to sell off to erase the tax liability. All wages garnished and personal asset(s) i.e. car has lien attached. Bankruptcy won't work due to this is non-dischargeable debt. This person understands the need to pay and has a good job-salary, but the IRS has left her/him with $333 to live on ea. month. Bascially poverty-stricken. No doubt the gov't has legal basis to due this, but, but, I believe it's unfair/ unjust to propel a person into dire straits with collection efforts. If the garnishment was not at the present level e.g. leaving this person with say $1000 to live on monthly, it would be affordable. I don't think the IRS... tax system, was setup to render a preson homeless or otherwise. Thank you for any assistance.

Obviously, I don't know all the details, but the IRS will usually levy wages only after they have been ignored for a long time. Your friend needs to come up with a payment plan, either a proposed installment payment plan (form 433D, I think) or a partial pay offer in compromise (form 656), along with a financial statement on form 433A. The forms are on the IRS web site http://www.irs.gov. Good luck.
What you are looking for is an offer in compromise. The IRS cannot muscle you around to the point of poverty and essentially you have the right to compromise with the IRS.

An offer in compromise is an agreement between a taxpayer and the IRS that resolves the taxpayer's tax debt. The IRS has the authority to settle, or 'compromise,' federal tax liabilities by accepting less than full payment under certain circumstances.
