Remove Bank Levy

An IRS bank levy follows several attempts by the IRS to contact the taxpayer regarding their existing tax debt. This typically includes the initial notice, several computer-generated reminder notices, and a final notice of intent to levy. During this time, the taxpayer may have been contacted by an IRS Revenue Officer (RO). If all previous attempts to settle a bank levy have gone unanswered and the tax debt remains unresolved, the IRS will issue a levy notice.

IRS levy notice: The first levy notice, of three, will warn you again of your debt. The second states that the levy will be placed within 30 days and begins the levy process, moving it from notice to enforcement. At this time, third-parties and creditors will also be informed of the IRS intent to levy and demand that all payments be forwarded to their offices.

Following this, the government will begin levying taxpayers bank accounts, property, insurance benefits, IRAs, SSI, pension plans, alimony and paid child support.

Bank levy: An IRS bank levy allows the IRS to become the highest-priority creditor in order to begin collecting on a taxpayers assets. As opposed to a wage garnishment where only wages may be taken, a taxpayer is also vulnerable to bank account garnishment, investment account garnishment, seizure of property, equipment garnishment, and accounts payable garnishment. Once a taxpayer receives a levy notice, he or she will not longer be able to submit an Offer in Compromise but there are still alternatives available to be discussed with TaxAttorneyNow.com.
