  Dealing with IRS Liens? If you need a tax debt relief service or tax attorney representation to help you resolve any state or federal tax audit with the IRS.
  Tax liens are painful. They kill credit rating (out of the three credit reporting agencies, TransUnion usually reports it first), hinder ability to buy/sell assets, and put on public display for all the tax debt.
  Tax liens exist until the amount of tax is paid or abated in full. In short, until the IRS says there is a -0- balance due.
  Tax liens are filed by years . Hence, it is possible that the tax lien has several years filed and several unfiled. Payment of one year's liability may in fact release a tax lien (for that year only) if there are no other years on the tax lien. Obviously most cannot pay the tax debt- hence, the only manner to release the lien is via abatement. Abatement is via: offer in compromise (if applicable), penalty abatement request (if that is all that is owed), expiration of the collection statute of limitations, and/or filing amended returns, if warranted.
  If an Offer in Compromise is accepted and paid, the IRS reduces the balance to -0- and releases the lien(s). If this is successful in eliminating the debt (including penalties and interest) via penalty abatement or amending tax returns, then the lien(s) will be released. Furthermore, if the IRS had run through its ten-year collection statute of limitations, then the lien will self-expire on the date according to the lien.
  Absent these methods, the lien is there to stay. In any event, if it has gone this far, professional help is required as the tax issues are far more than a typical taxpayer can handle.
