Currently Not Collectible: Relief from a $23,000+ IRS Debt
When our client came to us owing over $23,000.00 to the IRS, the financial pressure was overwhelming. For many individuals, a tax bill of this size creates constant anxiety—especially when income is tight and living expenses leave no room for high monthly payment demands.
Our client needed immediate protection from potential bank levies, wage garnishments, or aggressive collection notices. More than anything, he needed time to catch his breath and stabilize his finances without the IRS demanding monthly payments he simply couldn’t afford.
If life circumstances or tight cash flow have made it impossible for you to pay your tax debt, you have options. From our offices in Denver, Colorado, we defend clients nationwide against unpayable tax demands. Schedule your strategy call now: https://dickmanntaxgroup.com/tax-help/ .
Establishing Currently Not Collectible Status
Our team conducted a thorough, line-by-line financial analysis of our client’s income and necessary living expenses, evaluating his budget against the IRS’s strict Allowable Living Standards. We clearly demonstrated that forcing him into a standard installment agreement would create an immediate financial hardship, leaving him unable to cover essential daily costs.
Instead of accepting an unpayable payment plan, we prepared a comprehensive financial disclosure package for the IRS. We expertly argued that our client met all legal criteria for hardship protection, successfully placing his account into Currently Not Collectible (CNC) status.
What Currently Not Collectible Status Means for Our Client
Securing CNC status provided our client with immediate, life-changing relief:
-
Two-Year Payment Pause: The IRS officially approved a two-year window where he is required to pay $0.00 per month toward his $23,000+ balance.
-
Protection from Active Collections: While in CNC status, the IRS legally halts active collection efforts, protecting our client from bank levies, wage garnishments, and harassing collection letters.
-
Time to Recover: This two-year reprieve gives our client the necessary breathing room to stabilize his personal finances and plan for long-term stability without constant fear of IRS enforcement.
