Back Taxes Owed, Tax and Accounting Services
You have filed your tax returns but didn’t have the money to pay what was owed. You may think, “Oh well – I will catch up next year.” Not too bad, except when it happens year after year after year. Unfortunately, this happens all too often.
Before you know it, you find yourself several years in arrears and suddenly there is a notice from the IRS, stating that you owe this un–confrontable amount. It’s truly amazing how fast tax penalties and interest add up.
Now, what do you do!??? You sign up for a Torchlight Tax Analysis!!
The Torchlight Tax Analysis
Here is how we do it at Torchlight Tax:
- We sit down with you and do a free consultation (in-person, on-line, or over the phone).
- We make a contract with you as to what we will do. This is our Engagement Letter.
- We have you sign an IRS Form 2848 IRS Power of Attorney and pay a reasonable fee.
- Then we pull all your IRS Records with our special tax program.
- If you have unfiled tax returns, we file them for you. This would be a separate fee.
- Once all required unfiled tax returns are done, we have you fill out a financial questionnaire. This comes to us, not the IRS.
- Our advanced software marries up your transcript data with your financial data. We review it and may ask you additional questions.
- Based on the software and our expert analysis, we advise you on your best IRS Settlement Option. This completes your Tax Analysis.
This allows us to accurately advise you on what to do. Here are some possible scenarios that could come from a Tax Analysis.
- Maybe the IRS Statute of Limitations on collections is almost up, and in a certain period of time all of your tax liability goes away. This is date is called the CSED (Collection Status Expiration Date) This does occur. You see the IRS has 10 years to collect after a return is filed. I had a client who had $40,000 dollar in tax debt from years ago. I told her in six months her IRS debt would disappear. The IRS had lost track of her. I also told her to contact me immediately of the IRS contacted her. They did not. Six months later the debt disappeared!

Amendments
Sometimes, there may be a situation where a tax return could be amended, but it is too late to receive any benefit. Or maybe you made an error that was missed by the IRS that would have increased your tax liability. In some cases, it is prudent to file an amended return. But if it is not necessary and will not save you any money or decrease your risk, we will tell you not to bother. It is silly to amend a return to no advantage which is too old for the IRS to audit. Some firms might file a bunch of unnecessary tax returns and charge a fee. Sometimes a taxpayer himself might increase his tax liability by filing an unnecessary amendment that increases his tax liability. We will not do this.
Amending a tax return requires more professional acumen then doing it right in the first place. At Torchlight Tax, we do file the tax return correctly the first time. And we will happily amend your tax return, but only if it actually is to your benefit. If you think you might need to amend tax returns, contact Torchlight Tax for a free consultation.
