Automated Collection System
Automated Collection System is a computerized system which is linked to numerous CRT telephone stations. You can identify an account in the ACS system by the IRS phone number listed (800-829-7650). Many taxpayers which have a back tax liability are monitored through ACS. ACS’ primary function is to collect on a back tax liability through full payment of the tax or through monthly installment agreement payments. ACS will also place an account into a Currently Not Collectible status when a taxpayer can demonstrate they are in a financial hardship. ACS issues levies and garnishments in order to collect on the back tax liabilities. By contacting ACS, our attorneys can resolve an open case with any IRS agent. The resolution of a particular case may be a release of garnishment, the implementation of an installment agreement, or having the taxpayer’s account being placed into a Currently Not Collectable status.
