Struggling with Tax Issues? We Can Help!
Selby Tax and Accounting helps individuals and businesses work through IRS letters, unfiled returns and collection notices. You don’t have to face the IRS alone. Our team will go through your situation with you and explain your options.
Common Tax Problems We Help With
Federal Tax Lien
A federal tax lien is a legal claim by the government against your property when a tax debt goes unpaid. It is a public record, so lenders can find it, and it can make it harder to borrow, sell or refinance.
How we can help: We will go through your options with you, which may include a payment plan or, for some people, an Offer in Compromise.
Unfiled Returns
Not filing can mean penalties, interest and a higher tax bill. The IRS can file a return for you, and it may show more tax than your own records would.
How we can help: We help you file the missing returns, then look at ways to pay what you owe over time, such as an installment agreement.
Levies and Garnishments
A levy lets the IRS take money from your wages or bank account. That can leave you short for rent, food and bills.
How we can help: If this is happening, call us as soon as you can. There may be ways to ask the IRS to release a levy, such as setting up a payment plan or showing the levy is causing hardship.
Seizure of Assets
In serious cases, the IRS can seize property, including a home, car or business assets.
How we can help: We will explain where you stand, what the IRS can and can’t do, and which steps may help.

Solutions for Your Tax Problems
Offer in Compromise
This is a negotiation with the IRS to settle your tax debt for less than the full amount owed. It’s a great option if you can’t afford to pay the full amount or if doing so would create a financial hardship.
Audit Representation
Facing an IRS audit can be overwhelming. We’ll stand by your side, representing you during the audit process to ensure that your rights are protected and that you receive fair treatment.
Installment Agreement
If you’re unable to pay your tax bill in full, we can help you set up an installment agreement, allowing you to pay off your debt in smaller, more manageable monthly payments.
Interest and penalties keep adding up while you pay.
Innocent Spouse Relief
If your spouse or ex-spouse caused an error or unpaid tax on a joint return, you may qualify for relief from that shared liability. You must apply and meet IRS requirements.
Penalty Abatement
The IRS may reduce or remove penalties if you have a clean filing history or a good reason you couldn’t file or pay on time. It doesn’t reduce the tax itself or the interest.
Bankruptcy
Bankruptcy can affect how tax debt is treated. We don’t give legal advice, but we can work with your attorney.
Start with the letter
Tax problems rarely go away on their own. Penalties and interest keep building, and the IRS can move from letters to collection steps like levies. Opening your letters and asking for help early gives you more choices.
