Now Prepping 2026 Year End Projections
IRS & STATE TAX RESOLUTION
Got a letter from the IRS or the state? Get in contact before you respond.
An IRS letter is stressful, but most problems can be solved when they’re handled early and correctly. As an IRS Enrolled Agent, I can represent you, speak to the IRS on your behalf, and work toward the best resolution for your situation, no matter who prepared your return.
An Enrolled Agent (EA) is a tax professional licensed by the IRS. “Enrolled” means licensed to practice by the federal government. “Agent” means authorized to appear in place of the taxpayer before the IRS.
To earn the license, an Enrolled Agent must:
Pass a comprehensive three-part IRS exam covering individual taxes, business taxes, and representation
Pass an IRS background and suitability check, including their own tax compliance
Complete 72 hours of continuing education every three years to stay current
Follow the ethics rules the Treasury Department sets for tax professionals
Enrolled Agents have unlimited practice rights. That means I can represent any taxpayer, on any tax matter, before any IRS office.
You may not have to talk to the IRS. With your signed power of attorney, I deal with the IRS directly: calls, letters, meetings and paperwork.
Tax is all we do. Enrolled Agents specialize in tax law and IRS procedures, and keep up with changes every year.
Any return, any year. I can represent you even if someone else prepared the return, or you prepared it yourself.
Experienced help at a fair price. IRS problems are handled by a credentialed professional with 24+ years of experience and a Master’s in Taxation, at a rate that’s often lower than you might expect.

IRS and state letters come with response deadlines, often 30 days. Some are 90 days and can’t be extended. Penalties and interest keep adding up while a letter sits unopened, and ignored balance-due notices can lead to liens or levies on wages and bank accounts.
The sooner you call, the more options you have.
Don’t panic, and don’t ignore it. Most letters are routine and fixable.
Don’t call the IRS yet. Talk to me first so you know where you stand.
Send me a copy of the letter do not send until we have spoken.
I’ll explain your options and, with your signed power of attorney, handle it from there.
