3 Steps to Take the Moment the IRS Comes After You

Hoping the IRS will forget about your tax debt is a natural feeling, but it’s not a strategy—and waiting could cost you your business, your assets, and your peace of mind. 💡⚠️

So many business owners freeze when they get an IRS notice, hoping it’ll disappear if ignored. But the truth is, the IRS doesn’t forget—they escalate. Penalties stack, interest compounds, and enforcement actions like levies or liens can happen faster than you think.

In this episode of the IRS Problem Solver Podcast, I break down the critical first steps to take when the IRS comes knocking:
1️⃣ Don’t ignore it – Open the letter. Delay shrinks your options and grows your debt.
2️⃣ Get the facts – Pull your IRS transcripts to see exactly what you owe, why, and when their collection clock expires.
3️⃣ Build a strategy – Use data to negotiate installment agreements, penalty abatements, or hardship pauses.

One client waited until their bank account was levied. 👉 We still helped, but it cost them 10x more time and money than if they’d acted early.

Hope isn’t a strategy—action is. Listen now to learn how to turn IRS fear into a actionable plan.
