Enrolled Agent · Certified Tax Resolution Specialist · Offices in Clarkston, Troy, Pontiac, Wixom
Tax Resolution Services
Resolution programs each have their own eligibility rules and documentation requirements. Below is what each option is, who it typically fits, and what it involves.
As an Enrolled Agent, Eric L. Schacher is federally authorized to represent taxpayers before the IRS. Once a power of attorney is in place, IRS correspondence and calls can be directed to our office rather than to you.
IRS Representation detailsUnfiled returns and old balances tend to grow through penalties and interest. The first step is establishing exactly which years are open and what has been assessed, then bringing filings into compliance.
Back Taxes & Unfiled Returns detailsAn installment agreement allows a balance, including penalties and interest, to be paid over time. The type of agreement available depends on the amount owed and your financial circumstances.
Installment Agreement detailsAn Offer in Compromise is a documented IRS program, not a shortcut. Eligibility is generally driven by reasonable collection potential: verified income, allowable expenses, and asset equity.
Offer in Compromise (OIC) detailsA PPIA sets a monthly payment based on documented ability to pay, where the full balance is not expected to be satisfied before the collection statute expires.
Partial Pay Installment Agreement (PPIA) detailsAssessments are not always correct, and penalties are not always final. Where the facts support it, an assessment can be challenged or penalty relief can be requested.
Assessments & Penalty Abatements detailsCNC status is an IRS determination that collection is suspended because paying anything toward the balance would prevent you from meeting necessary living expenses.
Currently Not Collectible (CNC) detailsBefore anything else, we review where your case stands: which years are open, what has been assessed, and which resolution paths are realistically available.
