Tax Resolution
Help With IRS and State Tax Issues Starts Here
Receiving a tax notice or learning you owe the IRS or a state taxing authority can feel overwhelming. Ignoring the issue usually makes the situation worse.
Tax Resolution from Allison Accounting is designed to help individuals and business owners understand the type of tax issue they are facing and determine the appropriate next step.
Whether you received an IRS notice, have a balance due, need to respond to a state agency, have unfiled returns, or are unsure what to do next, our team can help you move forward through a clear, organized process.
Who This Service Is For
Tax Resolution may be the right fit if you:
Received an IRS or state tax notice
Have a tax balance due or payment issue
Need help responding to collection letters or penalty notices
Are concerned about a levy, lien,
or wage garnishment
Have unfiled prior-year tax returns connected to an IRS or state issue
Received a notice requesting additional information or reporting changes
Have business, payroll, or sales tax issues
requiring professional assistance
Need help understanding what type of tax issue you are dealing with and what the next step should be
Not every tax problem requires full Tax Resolution representation. Some situations may be better addressed through notice response support, prior-year tax preparation, business tax preparation, or another service.
What Tax Resolution Can Include
Depending on your situation, Tax Resolution may include:
Reviewing the type of IRS or state issue involved
Identifying important deadlines and response requirements
Determining whether professional representation may be needed
Identifying whether prior-year tax returns or other services should be completed first
Helping develop the appropriate response or resolution path
Communicating with the IRS or state agency if representation is included in the engagement
Submitting a notice or inquiry does not create a client relationship and does not authorize Allison Accounting to contact a tax agency on your behalf.
Notice analysis, agency contact, representation, or resolution work begins only after an engagement is accepted.
Information That Helps Us Evaluate Your Issue
If available, please provide:
A copy of the IRS or state notice
The notice date
The response deadline
The tax year involved
The agency that sent the notice
Any balance due shown on the notice
Whether you have already responded
Whether there are unfiled tax returns
Whether the issue involves an individual, business, payroll, or sales tax matter
If you have a notice, please provide the full notice, including every page and the back side of pages if applicable.
Screenshots, summaries, or partial pages may not provide enough information to evaluate the issue.
Do not worry if you do not have every document yet. Start with the information you have, and we will let you know what else may be needed.
Investment
Tax Resolution fees vary depending on the complexity of the issue and the services required.
Factors that may affect pricing include:
The type of IRS or state issue involved
The number of tax years affected
Whether prior-year returns need to be prepared
The complexity of agency correspondence
Whether representation before the IRS or a state agency is required
The amount of analysis, documentation, and communication needed
Whether the issue involves individual, business, payroll, or sales tax matters
After learning more about your situation, we will explain the recommended engagement, associated fees, and next steps before any work begins.
How the Process Works
Complete a Notice or Tax Problem Inquiry
Complete our short inquiry form and tell us about the notice, tax issue, agency involved, and any important deadlines.
We Review Your Information
Our team will review your information and determine the appropriate next step.
Depending on the issue, we may request the full notice, ask for additional documents, recommend a paid consultation or engagement, route the matter to prior-year tax preparation, or determine that another service path is more appropriate.
Engagement and Document Request
If your matter is accepted, we will explain the scope of the engagement, required documents, fees, and next steps before work begins.
For notice or representation matters, we may need additional documents, transcripts, authorization forms, or prior-year tax information before we can begin.
Resolution Work Begins
Once the engagement is accepted and the necessary information has been received, we will begin the agreed-upon services.
Depending on the engagement, this may include notice response work, agency communication, prior-year return preparation, payment arrangement support, penalty abatement review, or another resolution path.
Good-Fit Expectations
Tax Resolution is designed for individuals and business owners who:
Want professional guidance
with an IRS or state tax issue
Are willing to provide complete
and accurate information
Understand that every tax issue
requires an individual review
Appreciate a structured,
organized process
Understand that agency contact and
representation require an accepted engagement
Value professional representation
when appropriate
This service may not be the best fit if you are looking for immediate tax advice without a review, expect representation before an engagement is accepted, or are unwilling to provide the information needed to evaluate your situation.
Our goal is to help clients address tax issues through a thoughtful, professional process focused on the appropriate solution for their specific circumstances.
