When you file a tax return and owe taxes, the IRS automatically assesses a failure to pay penalty and interest the taxes owed ⁽¹⁾.  Interest is applied to any tax owed from the due date of the return (April 15^th for individuals) until your debt is paid completely off. And the interest builds up daily! On top of that, penalties are assessed monthly, including partial months, for as long as the tax remains unpaid.

If you haven’t filed and it’s determined that you owe taxes, there's also a failure to file penalty that is can equal to five percent what you owe every month, and/or partial month that the return is late, up to a maximum of 25%. If is past due more than 60 days, the minimum penalty assessed is whichever amount is less, $205 or 100 percent of the tax owed.

That is why you need to take the bull by the horns and initiate a dialog with the IRS about your situation.  However, a lot of people find the IRS intimidating to work with or just feel like they have no options for moving forward or perhaps you dispute the amount of taxes the IRS believes you to owe.

Why You Can’t Ignore Those Notices….

As a taxing authority, the IRS has several means by which it can recover taxes owed to them and if steps aren’t taken to negotiate a resolution to the issue of unpaid taxes in a suitable manner, the IRS will proceed to attempt to recover taxes owed. If it gets to that point, and the IRS proceeds with a wage garnishment or a bank levy, they will be reluctant to reverse the process until they have collected what they claim you owe.

Wage Garnishment

A wage garnishment is a process by which your employer withholds a portion of your pay check until a debt is satisfied. A court order is not required for the IRS to put a wage garnishment in place, they merely have to notify your employer needs to withhold a predetermined amount (up to 70%) of your check to be sent directly to the IRS.

Bank Levies

Another method the IRS uses to ensure payment, is by freezing your financial accounts. Much like wage garnishments, a bank levy prevents you from accessing your money. Once notified of the levy, the bank holds the money for 15 days before sending it to the IRS so you can see the need to act immediately if you should get a notice of intent to levy.

Tax Liens and Seizures  

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       A tax lien places a hold on your property – a car, a house, a boat, or even something as personal as jewelry to ensure the taxing authority will get their money. When a lien is placed on your property, the lien holder collects their money first in the event the property is sold. Bet you are thinking if you don’t sell your property no harm, no foul right? Not so, a lien can immediately hurt your credit such that if you own a business, your suppliers might no longer allow extend you credit for the supplies you need to run your business because you have been identified as a risk. If a tax lien has been placed against you because of individual taxes, you might be prevented from renting an apartment, purchasing a car, refinancing your home or make selling your property difficult.
