Protect your home and paycheck

Generally, unless you have an agreement with the IRS regarding your tax liability, the IRS may attempt to collect the balance at any time (after sending the taxpayer certain legally required notices).

However, The IRS will withhold collection activities while they consider the offer. The IRS will not act to collect the tax liability:

• While the IRS investigates and evaluates the offer;
• For 30 days after the IRS rejects the offer;
• While the offer rejection is being appealed.

The IRS will not withhold collection if the IRS finds any indication that the offer was submitted to delay collection or to jeopardize the IRS's ability to collect the tax.

The IRS might also file a federal tax lien at any time during the offer to protect its interests.
