I have been looking at a lot of TikTok, Instagram, and other social media posts. There is a lot of information on these sites (apps). Some good, Some not so much. Never take what you see on social media sites at face value, always verify.
One of the themes is the “Fresh Start” program. This is not a new program for the IRS. In fact the solutions that are touted have been around since the 1990’s. Payment plans (installment agreements), not collectible, offer in compromise, etc. are nothing new.
The rules by which a particular solution to an issue keeps evolving. IRS tries to make interaction with them easier. They fail in big ways, but they try. The point is that if you have an issue with the IRS contact a professional to help you.
If you need assistance with a tax issue contact me or another associate.
