What affects the price
When you look into professional tax debt relief, the total cost depends on a few specific factors. Agencies generally base their fees on the complexity of your financial situation, the total amount you owe the IRS, and how many tax years are currently unfiled or under audit. If you have complex assets, multiple sources of income, or require representation for a pending wage garnishment, the process naturally takes more time and resources to resolve.
