Tax Problems We Help With
IRS tax debt
Owe the IRS and need a real plan before collection gets worse? We review your balance, transcripts, income, expenses, and deadlines to identify the right resolution.
IRS payment plans
If you cannot pay in full, an IRS payment plan may help you resolve the balance over time while avoiding more aggressive collection.
Currently Not Collectible
If your income only covers necessary living expenses, CNC status may pause active IRS collection.
IRS audits
If the IRS is questioning your return, deductions, income, or records, representation can help protect your position.
Unfiled tax returns
Missing tax returns can block payment plans, settlements, and appeals. We help determine which years need to be filed and how to get back into compliance.
Offer in Compromise
If your income only covers necessary living expenses, CNC status may pause active IRS collection.
CP2000 notices
A CP2000 notice means the IRS believes income or tax information does not match your return. A response should be reviewed before agreeing.
CA FTB tax problems
California tax problems have their own rules for payment plans, liens, levies, penalties, and settlement options.

What is an IRS Tax Power of Attorney Representative?
IRS Form 2848: Power of Attorney & Declaration of Representative
Form 2848 is the IRS’s official Power of Attorney for tax matters. When you sign it and list the tax forms and years, you are authorizing your representative to stand in your place with the IRS for those items. We can talk to IRS agents, review your confidential records, receive copies of notices, and negotiate on your behalf to move your case forward.
Who Can Be Your IRS Tax Power of Attorney Representative?
On IRS Form 2848 you may authorize one of the following types of Representative:
Attorney
Certified Public Accountant ( CPA)
Any of the 3 types of Representatives you authorize can represent you before the IRS. This authorization is valid for IRS matters only. It does not apply to state agencies, banks, courts, or any non-IRS purpose.

Why Choose Semper Tax Relief?
When you are dealing with the IRS or a state tax agency, you need more than a call center or a salesperson. You need a tax professional who can review the facts, explain your options, and represent you with a clear strategy.
At Semper Tax Relief, we focus on IRS and state tax resolution. That means we review your filing compliance, transcripts, notices, deadlines, income, expenses, and collection risk before recommending a path forward.
Many taxpayers first try to fix the problem themselves or ask their regular tax preparer for help. That is understandable. But tax preparation and tax resolution are not the same thing. When the issue involves IRS collections, appeals, levies, liens, unfiled returns, or settlement options, the strategy matters.
Our goal is simple: identify the right tax relief option, protect your rights, and move your case toward resolution.
-
It is wise for someone to take the initiative to fix their own tax problems. It is highly recommended that you first make contact with the IRS, and fix your tax problems. However, the IRS is in a current state of crisis, facing historic backlogs which are affecting the overall response rate. In addition, they have new hires that are inexperienced and poorly trained, which affects the information being relayed to taxpayers.
Semper Tax Relief’s tax professionals have the technical know-how knowledge & experience with procedures to navigate complicated legal matters with the IRS.
Another step someone has taken is contacting their own tax professional who has been handling all prior tax filings. This step has also been taken by most of Semper Tax Relief’s clients. However, it is common that their tax professional lacks knowledge of tax relief laws and is not familiar with the legal procedures of the IRS, that is when hiring Semper Tax Relief would make sense.

Frequently Asked Questions About IRS Tax Relief
-
Tax relief means finding the right legal option to resolve an IRS or state tax problem. That may include a payment plan, penalty relief, Currently Not Collectible status, Offer in Compromise, or another resolution based on your facts. You can review our main Tax Relief Solutions page to see the common programs available.
-
Yes, some taxpayers may qualify to settle IRS tax debt for less through an IRS Offer in Compromise. The IRS looks at your income, expenses, assets, equity, and ability to pay. Not everyone qualifies, but if your financial picture supports it, an Offer in Compromise can be one of the strongest tax debt settlement options.
-
If you cannot pay the IRS in full, you may still have options. Depending on your income and expenses, the IRS may allow an IRS Payment Plan, a Partial Pay Installment Agreement, or Currently Not Collectible status.
The right option depends on what you can afford without creating financial hardship.
-
Currently Not Collectible, also called CNC, is a hardship status where the IRS temporarily pauses active collection because you cannot afford to pay after necessary living expenses.
CNC does not erase the tax debt right away, but it may stop levies, garnishments, and forced collection while your financial hardship exists. Learn more about IRS Currently Not Collectible status.
-
In some cases, yes. The IRS may remove or reduce penalties through penalty abatement if you qualify under first-time abatement or reasonable cause.
Penalty relief depends on your filing history, payment history, facts, documents, and the type of penalty assessed. Visit our IRS Penalty Forgiveness page to understand how penalty abatement works.
-
If you have missing tax returns, the first step is to find out which years actually need to be filed. Filing every old year without strategy can create unnecessary problems.
We help taxpayers use IRS transcripts and filing compliance rules to get caught up properly. Start with our Unfiled Tax Returns page.
-
Yes, if IRS collection notices are ignored, the IRS may move toward enforcement, including wage garnishment, bank levies, and federal tax liens. The key is to act before the deadline passes and before the IRS escalates collection. If you received a serious collection notice, review our guide on IRS Collection Letters.
-
A CP2000 notice usually means the IRS found income reported by a third party that did not match your tax return. It is not the same as a full audit, but it still needs a careful response.
You may agree, partially agree, or disagree with the proposed changes. Learn more about IRS CP2000 Notice help.
-
In many cases, yes. If you received a final levy notice or lien notice, you may have appeal rights through a Collection Due Process hearing or other IRS appeal option. Deadlines matter, so the notice date is important. Read more about an IRS CDP Hearing and how it may protect your rights.
-
Yes. California FTB tax problems can involve state tax balances, payment plans, levies, liens, penalty issues, and settlement options. IRS and FTB rules are not always the same, so the strategy should be reviewed separately. Learn more about CA FTB Tax Relief.
-
