Finding the right IRS Representation in Atlanta Georgia

Find the Best Atlanta
IRS Representative at GBC

Taxes can be complicated, frustrating, and leave you a wreck for days, but just imagine you find out you are going to get a visit from the tax man or that something was wrong with what you sent in. Now the real panic sets in!

In order to hire the right person, you need to know what a tax rep can do for you. Things to look for when searching for experience Internal Revenue Service Representation.

It's time for you to find the right IRS tax representation for your Georgia taxes.

First of all, if you owe outstanding taxes, your representation should be able to help you reach a reasonable compromise. What questions will they consider to help find a middle ground between you and the IRS?

• Is the amount of tax being required the correct amount?
• Could you ever conceivably pay the tax owed?
• If the answer to both is affirmative – would paying back the outstanding debt place you under extreme financial burden. 
• Visit the IRS website. 

Since the government rejects the great majority of attempts at compromise, be certain to find representation that will pre-qualify the request. That way you are not wasting your time and even more money getting together the needed information to present your case. Which income tax documents and forms are needed?

• Form 433-A Collection Information Statement for Wage Earners or Self-Employed Individuals
• Form 433-B Collection Information Statement for Businesses
• Form 656 Offer in Compromise 
• Visit the IRS website. 

Of course depending on whether you are self employed or are running a small business that will determine which of the first two forms you will use.

Another sticky Internal Revenue Service situation arises when you can't pay your taxes on time in full. Does the government offer payment plans? While it isn't generally advertised, a representative can help you to set up a reasonable monthly plan. Look for someone who can:

• Help with Form 9465 which is a request for a payment plan
• Help you avoid interest and late fees by encouraging you to scrounge up as much as you can for the initial payment
• Contact you immediately when they hear back from the IRS regarding whether your request was accepted or denied, or if you need to provide additional information 
• Visit the IRS website. 

Your tax representation also needs to have a good grasp on penalties. Do they know the penalties for:

• Failure to pay
• Inaccurate filing
• Understatement of the amount due
• Late filing
• Fraud
• A frivolous return (not enough information to verify tax amount due)

Tips for How Businesses can Handle Payroll Tax Troubles With The Internal Revenue Service

Steer Clear of Misfiling
Payroll Taxes

It is not a mistake that the majority of small businesses in Atlanta Georgia with payroll tax troubles are seeking IRS representation. 

Why? Because the Internal Revenue Service can be a real bull dog when it comes to collecting this tax. In many ways, it is the most serious tax of all.

As a business owner, it makes sense for you to become more knowledgeable on how to deal with your own payroll tax issues. Once you understand what to do and why to do it, that is when you can steer clear of heft damages caused by misfiling your payroll taxes with the IRS. 

Also, it means less money you may need to spend on Atlanta IRS representation! (Or hiring a firm for audit help).

The easiest way to stay out of trouble is by using a bonded payroll tax service to both file and make all payroll tax deposits. This helps cover you in case there is an issue. Also if you can only make partial payments, it is very important to write on the check that your contribution should go to  the trust fund portion of the tax. Along with writing it on the check, enclose a letter stating you have designated the funds to the trust fund portion of the IRS payroll taxes.

The trust fund portion of Atlanta IRS payroll taxes consist of:

• Employee's income
• FICA contributions

The smaller part is the employer's share of the FICA contribution, which is not subject to the actual Trust Fund Recovery Penalty. While this reduces what the Internal Revenue Service can assess against your business by only an 8%, it is important to stack the odds in your favor and every little bit helps.

Don't let your small Atlanta based business be overcome by problems with the IRS.  Call GBC IRS Income Tax Representatives today (678-366-9232) for all your income tax needs and representation.

Do you need to meet with your tax representation prior to being audited by the IRS?

Having excellent experienced tax 
representation is extremely
 important and invaluable
during an audit by the IRS.

People who acquire tax representation for their tax audits, often wonder whether or not they need to meet with their actual tax representative.

The good news is that if your time is extremely valuable and you hire tax representation to represent you to the IRS, you usually do not need to meet up with them at all. 

Through the Power of Attorney (form 2848), your tax representative can handle all the dealings with the IRS on their own. This includes even being able to sign final agreements with them after the tax audit of your business is complete.

Download Form 2848

One thing to note is that tax representation can be extremely useful for people who are incredibly busy, however there is a caveat that needs to be talked about. The IRS can still force you to appear by using what is called an “administrative summons”. This administrative summons is most often used if your IRS representative is not cooperating with the IRS and sharing all the details they are looking for. Often this happens too if they are expecting or have suspicions of some sort of fraudulent behavior with your filing.

In this case, having very good tax representation is extremely important and invaluable. They can help you save yourself from possible pending criminal charges which the IRS take extremely serious. If you do know you filed wrongly, or inaccurately, you should hire help right away to help you correct the mistake.

Often people in this situation succumb to:

• Fabricating receipts
• Fabricating records to support invalid deductions
• Lie to the examiner about income or other items

High quality tax representation whether you are in Atlanta, Georgia or anywhere else is money well spent and is often worth its weight in gold (solid gold).

Typically, it is very difficult for the IRS to prove underlying tax evasion. Doing any of the above three things though is what on average leads to the taxpayers ultimate downfall. Honesty truly is the best policy. Regardless, having a good tax representative who is well versed in criminal cases or potentially criminal cases could end up saving you from the wrath of the IRS.

Lies About Tax Breaks

Warning Signs of the Bad Atlanta Georgia Income Tax Preparer:

WARNING SIGN 4

The Big Lie About the Ethnic Tax Breaks...

Anyone that tells you that you get a tax break based off your race or religion, is an idiot or a scammer. Since even idiots know we are all taxed more or less the same, you can bet that this person is a scammer and you need to stay away from this person.

For example in the last 10 years or so, there has been a scam running targeting African Americans stating they get tax breaks due to slave era reparations. This is just absolutely false, and if you get sold some of this snake oil, you know it is time to run away before you get hurt and lose some serious money.

GBC Income Tax Services is honest and upfront about your income tax.
