Checking Your Credit Score Can Alert You to IRS Problems

If the IRS places a claim on your property as a tax lien, it shows up on your credit report and can greatly damage your credit score Florida IRS Tax Attorney Mary E. King advises.
The worst part is that you may not even be aware of the tax lien until you go apply for a credit card, car loan, home equity loan or to refinance. By that point lenders are hesitant to loan you any money.
Plus, an IRS tax lien may make it very difficult to sell your house. A buyer will be reluctant to buy since the IRS lien comes with the property and becomes his problem if you don’t take care of it Attorney King adds.
If you receive a “Notice & Demand of Payment” from the IRS and you don’t pay the tax bill, you have 10 days before the IRS can begin the process of placing a lien on your property.
If you don’t respond to the “Notice & Demand of Payment”, the countdown to a lien begins. You must act quickly. Realize this - a lien is just the beginning before even nastier IRS tactics begin, like wage garnishment and property seizure.
Your IRS tax troubles may have just begun if you’ve received a “Notice & Demand of Payment.” Attorney Mary E. King states these are the types of tax problems that she helps clients with on a daily basis.
