Voluntary Disclosure Programs offer protections similar to a State Amnesty Program, but their primary focus is on reporting previously undisclosed income, accounts, and assets, including those held offshore.

Many states offer Amnesty Programs to help taxpayers get back into compliance. These programs are designed to encourage voluntary disclosure of past tax liabilities by offering relief from penalties, interest and, in some cases,even a portion of the debt itself.

If the IRS has attached a Federal Tax Lien to your property, you may still retain ownership… but selling or refinancing will be nearly impossible until the lien is addressed.

Fortunately, there are other ways forward — including petitioning the IRS for a Certificate of Lien Discharge or Lien Subordination.

If the IRS or state tax authority has assessed a penalty against you or your business, you’re not alone millions of taxpayers face the same situation each year.

A Lien Withdrawal removes the public notice of a Federal Tax Lien and ensures the IRS is no longer competing with other creditors for your property.
