IRS Errors Cause Arkansas Clients to Lose Sleep

Mr. and Mrs. Marts of Altus, AR were approved for placement on the IRS’ Currently Not Collectible (CNC) status last month. Unfortunately, the IRS had determined that the Marts were not compliant with their tax returns. However, they actually were already compliant. Fortunately our law firm was able to help get things sorted out, and was able to successfully get them placed on CNC status.

“Mr and Mrs. Marts retained the law firm to negotiate CNC,” notes attorney Ryan Carrere. “Our law firm collected the taxpayer’s financial information and attempted to negotiate CNC. However, at the initial attempt a compliance issue arose. The IRS indicated the taxpayers had missing tax returns that must be filed. After communicating with the client, it was determined that the IRS was incorrect. The taxpayer’s had no filing requirement for the years the IRS was requesting tax returns. Our law firm contacted the IRS against and informed them that the taxpayer had no filing requirement for the years in question and was therefore compliant. Upon further review, the IRS agreed the taxpayer was compliant. With the compliance issue resolved, our law firm proceeded to provide a financial statement and requested CNC for the taxpayers. Shortly thereafter the IRS granted the request for CNC due to a financial hardship alleviating our clients from the stress and worry of enforced collections.”

“Only the freedom of a debt hanging over your head,” claimed Mrs. Marts. “It is such a relief to bed at night and sleep instead of laying awake all night and worrying about the IRS.”

We are happy to get you and your family the relief you deserved.
