What can the IRS do when you have a tax problem?
The IRS can have both a lien and a levy against a taxpayer with outstanding taxes owed.
We’re covering everything you need to know about liens and levies, including what they are and what the difference is between the two. We’re going over bank levies, wage garnishments, accounts receivable levies, and other accounts and property that the IRS can seize. We’re also sharing how to prevent collection activity and what to do if the IRS does initiate collection activity.
