Transcripts first, always. Before we talk about what resolution someone might qualify for, we need to see what the IRS actually has on file. The balance on a notice is not always the real balance once you account for what’s been assessed, what’s been credited, and what penalties might be removable.
Then compliance. Every unfiled year gets filed before we submit anything to the IRS. You can’t resolve what hasn’t been assessed, and the IRS won’t agree to anything formal while returns are still missing.
Then the financial statement. Real income, real expenses, real assets. That’s what determines which resolution option fits and what the IRS will actually accept.
Comment READY below and I’ll send you a full breakdown of the process from first call to final resolution so you know exactly what to expect.
