Many taxpayers do not actually need professional representation. They need clarity, direction and a process they can follow.

Thanksgiving is a moment that invites both pause and perspective. In the middle of year-end deadlines, holiday plans and the general rush of business life, this season reminds us to look up for a moment and acknowledge the people and progress that carried us through the year.

When a business fails to pay payroll taxes, the IRS can take serious action not just against the business, but against individuals personally responsible for collecting and paying those taxes.

At Golden Lion Tax Solutions we have spent years helping taxpayers and tax professionals navigate some of the most stressful moments in their financial lives. One truth always rises to the surface. Clarity brings confidence.

As the year winds down, most people are focused on wrapping presents, not wrapping up IRS issues. But if you’re facing tax debt, or helping clients who are, this is actually one of the best times to take action.

Running a business means taking responsibility for a lot from managing operations and employees to keeping up with complex tax obligations.

Starting a new business is exciting but it also comes with big financial decisions that can affect your future success.

As of October 9, 2025, the government shutdown has entered its second week, and the IRS has begun scaling back operations.

The government is officially shut down. Phone lines are busy. People are confused. Here is the reality you need to know. Your tax debt has not gone anywhere.

At Golden Lion Tax Solutions, the heart of our work is simple: we stand by people in overwhelming financial situations until the truth is heard and justice is served. Every case is more than numbers on paper it’s someone’s future, peace of mind, and ability to move forward with confidence.

Closing a business is rarely easy, and when outstanding tax liabilities are involved, the process becomes even more complex. At Golden Lion Tax Solutions, we help business owners navigate closures with care and precision so they can move forward without unnecessary personal or financial risk.

At Golden Lion Tax Solutions, we pause each year on September 11th to remember the lives lost, the families impacted, and the countless acts of courage that arose on that day in 2001. It is a time to honor the resilience of our nation and the strength of communities who came together in the face of unimaginable tragedy.

When you’re dealing with the IRS, it can feel like they hold all the cards. But the truth is… you have rights, and they’re not just guidelines. The IRS has a formal Taxpayer Bill of Rights that lays out the protections you’re entitled to under the law.

When you choose Golden Lion Tax Solutions to help you find the right tax debt solution to meet your needs, we will become your advocate. We promise to find the best solution; it may not be the easiest solution, but it will be the right one for your situation.

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. While paying the tax debt in full is the most direct solution, it’s not realistic for most taxpayers. 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.

The key is knowing that penalties can often be challenged and, in many cases, reduced or removed.

If you have seriously delinquent tax debt, the law allows the IRS to certify that debt to the U.S. State Department for action.

Once the State Department receives this certification, they can refuse to issue you a passport, deny your renewal application, or even revoke your current passport.
