Sound Familiar?
Tax Problems Don't Disappear When You Ignore Them.
You might be dealing with one issue or several at once. Understanding what's happening is the first step toward addressing it.
The IRS Letter
You received a notice and aren't sure what it means, whether the amount is correct, or how quickly you need to respond.
Years of Unfiled Returns
You've fallen behind on filing and don't know where to begin or which records you'll need.
A Balance You Can't Pay
You owe more than you can reasonably afford to pay at once, and you're unsure what payment arrangements may be available.
Collection Concerns
You've received warnings about liens, levies, wage garnishment, or other potential collection actions.
You Deserve Help Without Judgment.
Falling behind on taxes doesn't mean you've run out of options. The appropriate next step depends on your filing history, financial circumstances, notices, and deadlines. Our role is to help you understand that picture.

There's More Than One Way to Address Tax Debt.
Choose the situation that sounds most like yours to explore some common considerations in tax resolution.
What to Explore
Start With Your Filing History

Educational guidance only. Options depend on agency rules, deadlines, account history, and your personal financial circumstances.
The Nirvana Experience
A Clear Process for Moving Forward.
Resolving tax problems requires more than filling out a form. Our process is designed to establish the facts, identify options, and organize the work that needs to happen.
Assess
We review the available notices, account transcripts, filing history, financial circumstances, and relevant deadlines to understand the situation.
Develop a Strategy
We identify potential resolution paths, explain important trade-offs, recommend next steps, and define the scope and pricing of proposed services.
Implement
Once engaged and appropriately authorized, we prepare required returns, requests, correspondence, or supporting documentation and communicate with agencies as agreed.
Monitor & Move Forward
We track agency developments within our engagement scope, explain responses, and help identify ongoing filing and payment responsibilities.
You Stay Informed. We Handle the Work We've Agreed To.
We combine clear communication with secure document requests, written explanations, and representation when appropriate. The exact services and follow-up period are defined in your engagement agreement.
Resolution in Practice
One Tax Problem. Several Important Decisions.
Explore how a resolution strategy might be developed for a fictional self-employed professional facing multiple tax issues.
Hypothetical Example
A Self-Employed Professional
Two unfiled tax years, an existing IRS balance, and inconsistent business records. The taxpayer cannot afford to pay the balance in full.
Verify the Account
What does the IRS actually show?
Review transcripts, notices, posted payments, assessments, and missing return information. The account balance may need to be reconciled before developing a strategy.
Effective tax resolution starts with understanding the full situation. The best next step isn't always the most obvious one.

Questions & Resources
Understand Your Options Before Taking Action.
Tax problems often come with unfamiliar terminology and confusing choices. Here are answers to a few common questions.
Can I settle my IRS debt for less than I owe?
Possibly. An Offer in Compromise may allow eligible taxpayers to resolve certain liabilities for less than the full amount. The IRS evaluates financial information, compliance, and other eligibility criteria. Acceptance is not guaranteed.
Can the IRS remove tax penalties?
Certain penalties may qualify for first-time or other administrative relief, or for reasonable-cause abatement. Eligibility depends on the penalty, tax period, compliance history, and supporting facts.
Do I have to file missing returns before resolving my debt?
Filing compliance is often required for IRS collection alternatives. We review your filing history to determine which returns need attention and the appropriate sequence of work.
Can Nirvana communicate with the IRS on my behalf?
For matters within our services, authorized representation may be available after we establish a signed engagement and obtain the required authorization, such as an appropriate power of attorney.
What if I received a final notice or levy warning?
Read the entire notice immediately, including its specific deadline and response instructions. Some notices involve important collection appeal or Tax Court rights. Do not wait for a consultation if doing so could cause you to miss a deadline.
