    No more sleepless nights for this California man

    March 5th, 2008

    I find it truly refreshing being able to help people in need save money. What makes it even better is when that person thanks you and states “my sleepless nights worrying about my taxes were dispelled when I got JK Harris on my side.”

    I am so pleased that we were able to help save Richard Carlson of Yucaipa, CA, nearly $57,000 by negotiating an Offer in Compromise with the IRS. And that’s not all. We also helped him establish a monthly Installment Agreement with the California Franchise Tax Board to settle his state debt.

    Like many, Richard was in a situation where he owed the IRS, interest and penalties were making the debt even worse, and he suffered a decrease in his monthly income. All of these things combined made it impossible for him to pay the IRS and the state of California.

    That’s where we came in. We were able to establish the Installment Agreement with the state and then determine that Richard had no monthly disposable income after paying all of his usual monthly expenses.

    He did have some equity in his vehicle and an insurance policy, which was used to come up with the number of $3,169 for his Offer. Thankfully, the IRS looked over his financial situation and agreed the best resolution for both parties was to accept the Offer amount.
    Congratulations, Richard. You can now sleep tight, and we are really happy we could be a positive influence in helping you settle your tax issues.
