What it costs
What this costs, and why
A single unfiled year is not the same job as ten years with a lien on your house. One is a cleanup. The other is a rebuild. The fee reflects the work. Anyone who gives you a number before seeing your case is guessing.
What drives the fee
- How many years, and how many returns.
- How much is owed.
- Whether collections are active. Liens. Levies. Wage garnishments.
- Whether an audit is involved.
- Business or individual.
The fee is for our work. It is separate from what you owe the IRS. We handle the representation and set up the arrangement. The payment to the IRS is yours to make.
How it works, and where the price comes from
The first conversation is free. No charge, no obligation. We talk about what’s going on with a licensed and qualified professional.
Before we quote anything, we pull your IRS transcripts and read your account in full. This is the step that tells us the truth. People remember things wrong. Transcripts don’t. Once we see them, we know exactly what the job is. If untangling your situation takes real work, unfiled years, old balances, no clear picture of what the IRS has on file, that review is $250. When the picture is already clear and the transcripts just confirm it, we usually skip the fee.
Then you get a written quote, based on what the transcripts actually show, before you commit to anything. Then you decide. Accept and we start. Once accepted, billing can break into monthly installments. Basic engagements begin at a few hundred dollars a month and scale with complexity.
What we never do
- We never charge a percentage of what you owe, or what you save.
- No hidden fees.
- If the $250 review fee applies, it is the only charge before a quote. It pays for the work of the review, not toward any outcome.
- Past that, nothing is charged until you’ve approved the written quote.
- Payment plans, so the fee fits your situation.
