It depends on what you mean by without your knowledge. The IRS is required to send a series of demands for payment, the last of which will be titled "Final Notice of Intent to Levy and Notice of Your Right to a Hearing". If you do not make arrangments with the IRS within 30 days of the date of this letter, or file an Appeal Request within 30 days of the date of this letter, the IRS can begin levying bank accounts. The IRS is required to send this Final Notice to the last address on file. So if you moved and did not update your address with the IRS using Form 8822, they may be sending it to an old address and therefore your bank accounts would get levied without you ever knowing.

it is my understanding that the only people who can take money from your account without your permission are the IRS to pay back taxes. unless you sign somthing giving the bank permission to take money out of your checking account I don't think they can do it. make sure you read the fine print of any loan document so you know that you are not giving them the right to take money out of your checking account.
