Bank Levy Release

IRS Bank Levy Defense

Has your bank account been frozen by the IRS? You have a strictly limited time frame before the funds are permanently seized. Learn how we can help release your levy.

What is an IRS Bank Levy?

An IRS bank levy is a severe collection action where the IRS directs your bank to freeze the funds in your accounts up to the amount of tax debt you owe. From the day the bank receives the levy notice, there is a 21-day holding period before the bank legally must remit your money to the IRS.

Did you receive a Notice?

A bank levy is typically preceded by a Final Notice of Intent to Levy. If you received any of these, action is required:

The 21-Day Window

You must act within 21 days to prevent the permanent loss of your funds.

1

Do NOT Panic, but Act Fast

You have exactly 21 days from the date the bank receives the notice to negotiate a release.

2

Prove Economic Hardship

If seizing the funds means you cannot pay for food, shelter, or medicine, the IRS may release the levy due to extreme hardship.

3

File Missing Returns

The IRS almost never releases a levy if you have unfiled tax returns. We can help file them quickly.

4

Negotiate Resolution

We can negotiate a payment plan or CNC status to satisfy the IRS and unfreeze your accounts.

The Clock is Ticking on Your Bank Account

Don't let the 21-day holding period expire. Contact our tax professionals immediately to begin the levy release process.
