If you owe the IRS, a tax levy may be used to satisfy your debt. A tax levy involves the seizure of your real or personal property. The value of the property seized is then used to satisfy your debt. If you have an interest in any real or personal property, then the IRS has the right to seize and sell that property if you do not pay, or make arrangements to pay your taxes.
What Kind of Property is Subject to a Tax Levy
Examples of different types of property that the IRS may seize include your house, vehicle or boat. The IRS may put a tax levy on any property that you own, even if you do not have possession of that property. Some examples of this type of property include employment wages, bank accounts, income from rental property, and even your retirement accounts.
Steps in the Tax Levy Process
The first step that the IRS takes in the tax levy process is to assess the amount of tax that you owe and then send you a Notice and Demand for Payment. At this point, if you still fail to pay the taxes that you owe, the IRS will send a Final Notice of Intent to Levy. Along with this notice, the IRS will send you a Notice of Your Right to A Hearing. This notice will be sent to you at least 30 days in advance of implementing the tax levy.
Avoiding a Tax Levy
If you owe taxes to the IRS that you have not paid, the best option is to take steps to ensure that you do not become subject to a tax levy. Obviously, paying your taxes before the levy is implemented is the best option. If this is not possible, you may be able to avoid a tax levy by filing for bankruptcy. One important thing to consider here is that you must have filed bankruptcy before the IRS sends you the Notice and Demand for Payment.
