Why should you attend?

Is your business burdened with past due IRS payroll tax debt? Or maybe your personal federal income tax has been unpaid for several years?
IRS penalties for unpaid taxes can easily reach 100% of the unpaid amount. But penalties for not filing income taxes carry stiffer monetary penalties and can be deemed tax evasion which has a maximum five year prison sentence. The largest and most aggressive debt collector is the IRS. The IRS has access to personal and business financial information for the purpose of imposing bank levies, wage garnishments, liens and involuntary property sales to satisfy uncollected income and payroll tax debt The most recent IRS statistics show that unpaid income tax between 2008 and 2010 reached approximately $458 billion annually but $52 billion was collected by the IRS after contacting those individuals. About 84 percent of this tax gap ($406 billion) comes from taxpayers underreporting income and nearly one half comes from underreporting pass-through business income, small corporation income and self-employment payroll tax. So what rights do business owners and other individuals have when faced with unpaid income and payroll tax debt? What steps should you take to cure federal income tax debt?
