The client reached out to Dickmann Tax Group for help with their tax liability. They were looking for fair repayment terms and help with the extensive penalties assessed on their debt. The client had been in an unaffordable payment plan with the IRS for more than five years and was seeing no way out nor were they seeing any progress in repaying the liability. The penalties and interest just kept accruing on their debt, which was causing a great deal of stress.
The client had a processing issue with the 2019 return, which had been mailed multiple times to the IRS and was either lost, misplaced, or ignored. The IRS assessed late filing penalties on the 2019 tax year because according to them the return had not been filed. We ensured the IRS received and processed the return by getting it to the correct department via mail and fax. We then disputed the late filing of the return on the basis of the return being filed and the IRS making the mistake of not processing it. As a result we were able to abate the late filing penalties saving the client $11,586.37.
