Has the IRS Issued a Tax Levy Against You?
What Is a Tax Levy?
A Tax Levy is the harshest collection action the IRS can take. It is a legal seizure of your property to satisfy a tax debt. Unlike a tax lien, which makes a legal claim against your assets, a levy actually takes them from you.
Typically, the IRS will only issue a levy after they have sent you multiple warnings, ending with a “Final Notice of Intent to Levy.” If you have received this notice, you have a limited window (usually 30 days) to act before they begin seizing your assets.
What Assets Can the IRS Seize?
Bank Accounts (Bank Levy)
The IRS freezes your account. You have 21 days to resolve the issue before the bank is legally forced to send your money to the IRS.
Wages (Wage Garnishment)
The IRS can order your employer to send a significant portion of your paycheck directly to them every pay period.
Retirement Accounts:
Your 401(k), IRA, or pension funds can be liquidated to pay your debt.
Social Security Benefits:
The government can take up to 15% of your Social Security payments.
Physical Property:
They can seize and sell your car, boat, or real estate.
State & Federal Tax Refunds:
Your future refunds will be intercepted and applied to your debt.
