Wage Garnishment help in orange county, ca

If you’ve ignored a long-overdue tax debt, the IRS may take serious action — including garnishing your wages. Once a wage garnishment is enacted, the IRS will begin collecting a portion of your paycheck each pay period until your tax debt is paid in full — often without regard for how it impacts your financial situation.

How to Stop a Wage Levy

Trying to stop a wage garnishment on your own is not only stressful, but it often takes far longer than when working with a skilled professional.


At Boulanger CPA and Consulting PC, we help individuals in Orange County and beyond resolve wage garnishments quickly and effectively. Our experienced tax professionals know exactly how to communicate with the IRS, evaluate your options, and act fast to protect your income.


There are multiple ways to resolve IRS wage garnishment issues, including:

Pay Your Tax Debt in Full

This is the fastest way to end wage garnishment. Of course, if you could pay your back taxes you probably would have by now, but if you can find a way to pay the full tax bill all at once, the wage garnishment will stop immediately.

Enter into an Installment Agreement

An installment agreement allows you to pay off your tax debt slowly by offering reasonable monthly payments to the IRS. We can negotiate an installment agreement and when the IRS accepts it, the wage garnishment will stop.

File an Offer in Compromise

An offer in compromise allows a taxpayer to resolve their tax debt by persuading the IRS to agree to accept less than the full amount owed. Not everyone qualifies for this option, but if financial difficulties are preventing you from paying your tax debt, you may qualify.

Have Your Tax Debt Declared Currently Not Collectible

It's appropriate to apply for this special status as a temporary solution if you're living on a fixed income, unemployed, or suffering from an illness that prevents you from working. The IRS will refrain from attempts to collect their money while your tax debt is considered Currently Not Collectible.

Tax Lien Help in orange county, ca

If you owe the IRS a large amount in back taxes or penalties, they may file a tax lien against your personal or business assets — most commonly real estate. Unlike a tax levy, a lien doesn't mean immediate seizure, but it does give the IRS a legal claim on your property and can impact your ability to sell or borrow.


Tax liens can apply to personal homes, business property, and even accounts receivable. In many cases, they remain in place until the tax debt is resolved or the statute of limitations expires.


At Boulanger CPA and Consulting PC, we provide trusted IRS tax lien representation in Orange County, helping you understand your options and negotiate with the IRS to release or avoid liens.

Impact of A Tax Lien

If a public Notice of Federal Tax Lien is issued on a property, it can cause serious financial problems for an individual or a business owner. Since a tax lien is public, it appears on your credit score and hinders most lenders from working with you because their risk is much greater since the IRS has first rights to your assets. This damage to your credit can prevent you from obtaining the financing to buy a car or get a mortgage, can keep you from being approved for a new credit card, or can stop you from getting a lease for a rental property.

How to Release an Irs Tax Lien

When a tax lien is released, the IRS will no longer have legal claim over your property and your credit report will be updated to reflect this change. The IRS has started offering a special program to make it easier for taxpayers to get their tax liens released and we can determine if you qualify. Call us now at 657-218-5700 or request a consultation online and our tax professionals will find the best way to get your tax lien released.

Tax Levy help in orange county, ca

If you’re facing serious IRS debt, the IRS may go beyond a lien and issue a tax levy — giving them the legal authority to seize your property or take funds directly from your bank, retirement, or investment accounts. They can also garnish wages or, in the case of a business, seize equipment and other assets. If you’ve received a Final Notice of Intent to Levy, don’t wait. The IRS can act quickly — and you could lose access to your money or property without warning.


At Boulanger CPA and Consulting PC, we provide experienced IRS levy representation for clients in Orange County and nationwide. We’ll assess your situation, communicate with the IRS on your behalf, and work to get the levy lifted and protect your assets from further seizure.


Call us now at 657-218-5700 or request a consultation through our website. We’ll help you stop the levy and take back control of your finances.

Types of Federal Tax Levies

Bank Levy – Most Common

The IRS can issue a Notice of Intent to Levy then contact your bank and freeze your bank account. After 21 days they will deduct enough money from your account to cover the tax debt. If they don’t receive the full amount the first time, they can come back multiple times as more money is deposited into your account.

Wage Levy or Wage Garnishment

The IRS can contact your employer to have a portion of your weekly paycheck deducted and put towards your tax debt. If your employer doesn't comply, the IRS will hold them liable for the amount that should have been removed from your check. So, if a wage garnishment is demanded, your employer has no choice but to cooperate.

Property Levy

The IRS is ruthless when it comes to property levies. Almost any kind of physical asset can be taken from a taxpayer and sold to satisfy their tax debt. This includes your car, boat, or even your home.

Retirement Account or Social Security Levy

Think your retirement savings are safe? Think again. Pensions, profit sharing, stock bonus plans, and IRAs can all be levied by the IRS.

Payroll Tax Problems

All businesses, large and small, are required by the U.S. tax code to pay payroll taxes. The IRS considers payroll taxes to be their money before it ever leaves your hands, so failure to pay your company's payroll taxes on time amounts to stealing from the federal government in their eyes. The results are large tax penalties and aggressive collection efforts from the IRS.

How Payroll Problems Start

If you've missed a payroll tax deposit accidentally, high tax penalties and interest charges begin to accrue immediately and will compound each pay period. By the time you realize your mistake, the fees are gaining steam and you're faced with a mammoth tax bill that your business can't afford to pay.

Another reason businesses experience payroll tax problems, is because the funds set aside for payroll tax deposits are used for other expenses or are mismanaged. If a business owner is experiencing a lag in cash flow, he might decide to borrow from the company's payroll withholdings to pay off some bills with the intention of catching up before the IRS takes notice. But the IRS is watching and before long the tax penalties and interest build up and lead to major tax problems that can threaten the life of the business. If your business doesn't have the cash or assets to pay your back payroll taxes, the IRS will not hesitate to go after individual owners. And in serious cases, they may even choose to criminally prosecute the offenders.

We Can Solve Your Payroll Tax Problems

Before your payroll tax problems escalate, contact our tax professionals at 657-218-5700 for a consultation. We can work directly with the IRS to initiate a payment plan like an offer in compromise or installment agreement that will allow you to pay off your tax debt over time and get your business back in good standing with the IRS.

IRS Tax Problems

When your unpaid taxes reach a certain threshold, the IRS will become very forceful in their collection tactics and can make your life miserable until you find a way to pay. They can hit you with exorbitant penalties, garnish your wages, or even use a levy to seize your property in an effort to pay the tax debt. If you’re experiencing one of these tax problems or any of the others listed below, contact Boulanger CPA and Consulting PC now at 657-218-5700 for straightforward tax advice and a timely solution.

Types of Federal Tax Levies

Back Taxes and Failure to File

If you’ve failed to file your taxes for multiple years, ignoring the IRS won’t make your tax bill go away. We can help you gather missing paperwork, file your back taxes, and work hard to reduce penalties.

IRS Tax Audits

When up against a trained IRS tax auditor, a taxpayer is at a distinct disadvantage if they’re on their own. We can level the playing field by representing you in front of the IRS.

Tax Liens

Tax liens can hurt your credit score and keep you from getting a mortgage or car loan. We know how to get a lien released so it will be removed from your credit report.

Tax Levies

The IRS has the legal ability to levy your wages, property, bank accounts, and even your retirement accounts. We can work with them to find a better way to pay off your tax debt.

Wage Garnishment

If your wages have been garnished or you fear they might be, contact us now. We can show you how to get back in good standing with the IRS so you can keep your whole paycheck.

Payroll Tax Problems

The IRS considers payroll taxes to be their money before it ever leaves your hands. If you haven’t paid them on time and are facing steep penalties, we will take action to settle your tax debt fairly.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • Do I need an attorney or a CPA for my matter?

    For most Orange County tax issues, including audits and IRS disputes, a CPA like Boulanger CPA, a Certified Tax Representation Consultant, offers specialized expertise.
