The Qualification And Role Of Enrolled Agents In Tax Representation

By Mary Burns


Levy representation isn't only necessary if the IRS is trying to knock down your door. There are many instances when an attorney can greatly benefit you and help you through a difficult or complex situation. From audits to international business to complex deductions, finding quality levy agent can help save you money and in some cases, even keep you out of jail. Below are some instances when you need to have a tax representation by an enrolled agent.

What role is played by IRS in taxation? The Internal Revenue Service, (IRS) has the authority to impound your monthly paycheck and bank account if you fail to arrange for levy payment. It can also file a statement of a levy lien on your property to acquire payment of levies. This can land you a damaged credit history along with other problems. It is essential that you seek professional levy representation services when you owe money to the government. Dealing with the predicament yourself can be problematic if you are inexperienced with the law and levy department.

Many levy matters can be handled outside of court, though. While a levy attorney's legal advice is always helpful, they rarely prepare levy returns or specialize in financial documents. These skills are often needed to fully resolve the issue. Since levy attorneys typically bill by the hour and for all internal administrative expenses, levy resolution cases that run into IRS delays can become expensive.

Deductions; if this is your first complex levy return, or you have greatly increased the amount of deductions you have, levy agency may be the best route to go to ensure you get your full entitlement. Many people have fairly straightforward levy returns with few deductions, exemptions, and other complexities.

A good firm provides customized services to meet the needs of its client since different clients have different problems. It attentively analyses your levy issues and designs a strategy that is most suitable to work out your levy problems.

Enrolled agents are enrolled to practice before the IRS to represent people and businesses. To become an enrolled agent, one must have worked at an enforcement position within the IRS for at least five years or have passed a series of IRS formed exams. As an IRS employee, one must have held a position interpreting and enforcing the U. S. Levy code as per Circular 230. In either case, the result is someone skilled at levy returns and levy resolution in a direct sense.

Do you have fraud issues or are under Investigation? Okay, nobody is perfect, and sometimes people get caught for cheating on their levies. Even worse than an audit, if you are under investigation or accused of levy fraud you will need a tax attorney to help you through the process. Choose someone with many years of experience and who understands your position. Remember that even if you admit guilt, an attorney can help you reduce sentencing and fines. Investigations are serious business and shouldn't be taken lightly.

Only enrolled agents are granted the right to practice by the U. S. Government; attorneys and CPAs are licensed by states. While all levy representatives fall under the same Circular 230 IRS code of ethics, rules for CPAs vary by the state from which the license comes.
