Question:

    The IRS recently levied my business bank accounts, again, but this time they did not give me any notice or warning.  Is this legal? 

Answer:

    Unfortunately, yes, it is legal for the IRS to levy your bank account in this situation without forewarning.  If these were your first delinquent payroll taxes in two years and you had never been levied before, then the IRS would be required to give you notice and you would have the right to a hearing to determine if the IRS had done everything they were required to do prior to issuing a levy as well as looking at other alternatives for the payment of the tax such as an offer in compromise or an installment agreement. 

    I would like to remind my readers that we are putting together a new product to assist indiviudals in filing their own offer in compromise with the IRS.  We understand that some people just want to keep these type of issues private and handle it themselves and that is the reason we are creating this product.  While we have all of the "information" to go into the product ready to go, we want to make sure it is exactly what our readers want so, please take some time go take this short 8 question survey (it should only take you about 2 minutes) to let us know what you would like to see (such as, e-book, hard copy or video).  Thanks!
