If you think that you might be having problems with the IRS, you should contact IRS tax resolution services as soon as possible. Here are a few reasons that you should take your problem with the IRS seriously before you have to worry about tax liens and wage garnishments.

The also have the authority to take out a levy upon assets in the possession of a third party such as a bank or a brokerage house.
4. Another action that the IRS can take to regain the money owed them is through the use of wage garnishments. This is when the IRS can demand of an employer to send a portion of the salary of a tax debtor to be sent directly to the IRS as a payment.
