Service Overview

Understanding IRS Federal Tax Liens

A federal tax lien is the government’s legal claim against everything you own once a tax debt goes unpaid after the IRS has assessed it and demanded payment. It is not the same as a levy: a lien secures the government’s interest in your assets, while a levy actually seizes them. The lien arises automatically under Internal Revenue Code § 6321 the moment the assessment goes unpaid.

Most people first feel it through the Notice of Federal Tax Lien (NFTL), filed on IRS Form 668(Y) with your county recorder or Secretary of State. That public filing alerts lenders, title companies, and creditors that the IRS stands ahead of them — and from that point the lien attaches to real estate, vehicles, business assets, receivables, and even property you acquire afterward.

How a Federal Tax Lien Affects You

An active lien reaches further than most taxpayers expect:

  • Credit and financing. Lenders and underwriters routinely pull public records and treat an active NFTL as a serious red flag.
  • Selling or refinancing. A lien clouds title — you generally cannot close a home sale or refinance until it is addressed.
  • Business disruption. The lien can attach to accounts receivable and business property, unsettling vendors and lenders.
  • It compounds. Penalties and interest keep accruing on the underlying balance the entire time the lien stays in place.

Because we are licensed Enrolled Agents, we can represent you directly before the IRS — so you are not facing a revenue officer alone.

How Its Work

How We Work to Resolve Your Tax Lien

Every case starts by pulling your IRS account transcripts, so we know exactly what was assessed, for which years, and when the Collection Statute Expiration Date (CSED) falls. From there we evaluate the realistic options: resolving or settling the underlying liability, or requesting a lien withdrawal (Form 12277), discharge (Form 14135), or subordination (Form 14134) — depending on whether you need to clean the public record, sell, or refinance.

We set honest expectations: no one can guarantee the IRS will remove a lien. What we do is build the strongest factually supported case for the relief you actually qualify for, and handle every IRS communication from start to finish.
