IRS Debt Experience

Marcus T.

Phoenix, AZ

Offer in Compromise

"I owed the IRS over $80,000 and had been ignoring it for years because I didn't know what to do. TaxWave walked me through the whole process, explained exactly how the settlement calculation worked, and submitted my offer. It was accepted at $14,200. I'm still a little in shock. The specialist was honest from day one about what to expect — no promises, just the math. That honesty actually made me trust them more."

Donna R.

Dallas, TX

Wage Garnishment Stop + Installment Agreement

"I got a garnishment notice on a Friday. Called TaxWave that same afternoon. By Monday morning the garnishment was stopped. I couldn't believe it. They filed the Power of Attorney and got an emergency hold on the levy. We set up an installment agreement the following week. It's been 8 months and I've had zero contact from the IRS directly. Everything goes through TaxWave now."

Robert and Carol H.

San Jose, CA

Penalty Abatement

"We owed $38,000 in back taxes but a lot of it was penalties we thought we were stuck with. TaxWave applied for First-Time Abatement and removed $11,200 in penalties in about 6 weeks. We had no idea that was even possible. We paid the remaining balance in full after that. The fee paid for itself just in what they got removed."

Jennifer W.

Orlando, FL

Innocent Spouse Relief

"My ex-husband had been lying about business income on our joint returns for years without my knowledge. When we divorced, I found out I was on the hook for $34,000. TaxWave filed innocent spouse relief and handled all of the documentation. The IRS granted the relief and removed my liability entirely. I cried when I got the letter. Thank you."

Tony M.

Chicago, IL

Business Tax Resolution + TFRP Defense

"My restaurant had payroll tax debt and the IRS was coming after me personally through the Trust Fund Recovery Penalty. TaxWave challenged the assessment and fought it through the appeal process. They got it significantly reduced. The business is still open. I don't know what I would have done without them."

Brenda K.

Atlanta, GA

Currently Not Collectible

"I'm on a fixed income and owed $40,000 in IRS debt from my self-employment years. TaxWave put me in CNC status based on my financial hardship. I've made zero payments and it's been over 3 years. They told me from the beginning that this would be my best strategy and explained the statute expiration concept. They were right. Exactly what they said would happen is happening."

Kevin and Michelle P.

Seattle, WA

Tax Lien Withdrawal for Mortgage

"We had a federal tax lien that was blocking our mortgage. Our lender said we couldn't close until it was dealt with. TaxWave got us into a Direct Debit installment agreement and then withdrew the lien in about 6 weeks. We closed on the house. The whole thing was smooth — they clearly knew exactly what they were doing with the lien withdrawal process."

Alex F.

Denver, CO

Unfiled Returns + Tax Resolution

"I had 5 years of unfiled returns and was terrified. TaxWave filed all of them and negotiated the resulting balance — it turned out the IRS's Substitute for Returns had overstated what I owed. By filing the actual returns, my balance was cut almost in half before we even started negotiating. Then they got me into a payment plan at an amount I could actually afford. Professional, patient, and worth every penny."

Sandra G.

Las Vegas, NV

State + Federal Resolution

"I had debt with both the IRS and Nevada unemployment tax (not an income tax state but I had employer obligations). TaxWave handled both simultaneously. What I appreciated most was their communication — I always knew what was happening, what had been filed, and what to expect next. No black box. No mystery. Just clear, consistent updates."

Honest, realistic expectations

Relief of not dealing with the IRS directly

The value of having an expert handle all IRS contact — never having to speak to a Revenue Officer or answer a collections call.
