How to Stop or Prevent an IRS Wage Levy
An IRS wage levy, also called a wage garnishment, allows the IRS to take a portion of your paycheck to repay unpaid taxes.
The best approach is to act before the levy begins, preventing the IRS from involving your employer and avoiding unnecessary financial stress. Having your wages garnished not only reduces your take-home pay but can also create embarrassment and strain on your household budget.
If the IRS has already started garnishing your wages, don’t panic, our tax professionals can often step in quickly to stop or remove an active wage levy and help you regain control of your income.
How an IRS Wage Levy Works
When the IRS determines you owe back taxes, they begin by sending a series of notices, starting with a Notice and Demand for Payment. If you don’t respond, you’ll eventually receive a Final Notice of Intent to Levy and a Notice of Your Right to a Hearing.
Once 30 days have passed, the IRS can begin garnishing your wages to collect what you owe.
Here’s how an IRS wage levy works:
Employer notification: The IRS sends a legal order to your employer, requiring your payroll department to withhold part of your paycheck and send that money directly to the IRS. Employers rarely refuse, since they can be held personally liable for failing to comply.
Ongoing garnishment: Unlike a one-time bank levy, a wage levy continues until your entire tax balance, including interest and penalties, is fully paid or the levy is officially released. Without action, it can remain in effect for months or even years.
Remove IRS Wage Levy
At M7, we specialize in resolving urgent IRS issues like wage levies and paycheck garnishments.
Once the levy is paused, we can use that time to negotiate a solution or dispute the IRS’s claim. To release a wage levy, we may:
Negotiate an Offer in Compromise (OIC); Set up a Streamlined Installment Agreement;
Demonstrate financial hardship to reduce or stop payments;
Request Currently Not Collectible (CNC) status;
Show that the collection statute of limitations has expired; or
Challenge the IRS for not following proper procedures.
These are just a few of the ways we can stop the IRS from taking your paycheck.
We understand how difficult it is to live on a reduced income. That’s why we work quickly, offer flexible payment options, and focus on achieving lasting tax relief. Our team maintains a 94% success rate in securing OIC approvals, with clients paying an average of just 3.6% of their original debt, and earning consistent 5-star satisfaction reviews for results and service.
