TAX RELIEF · IDAHO · BOISE, COEUR D'ALENE, IDAHO FALLS & STATEWIDE

Idaho tax relief: IRS and State Tax Commission debt, resolved without the drive.

Idaho taxpayers rarely have just one problem. A federal balance with the IRS usually comes with an Idaho State Tax Commission bill behind it, because Idaho's income tax starts from your federal return and the two agencies share information. Our enrolled agents and tax attorneys handle both sides from Spokane — thirty minutes from the Panhandle, a phone call from Boise — with the first conversation free and every fee quoted in writing.

Licensed to represent taxpayers before the IRS · Flat fees, quoted in writing before any work begins

FEDERAL

IRS debt, unfiled returns, garnishments, audits, and payroll problems — the same representation we provide in Washington, because IRS representation isn't limited by state lines.

IDAHO

Idaho State Tax Commission collection notices, income tax balances, and the state adjustments that follow a federal audit or an amended federal return.

HOW WE WORK

By phone and secure document upload. Coeur d'Alene and Sandpoint clients are welcome to meet in person in Spokane; Boise and Idaho Falls clients get identical service without the drive.

HOW IT WORKS

Four steps.
Both agencies.

Federal and state balances are collected separately but usually stem from the same years. We sequence the work so fixing one doesn't surprise you with the other.

1

Free case review

Which years, which notices, and whether the balance is federal, state, or both. Bring everything from the IRS and everything from Boise.

2

Transcripts on both sides

With your authorization we pull IRS account transcripts and your Idaho account history, so the plan is built on the real numbers from both agencies.

3

Stop active collection

Wage garnishments and bank levies can come from either agency. We contact the one that's acting first, request a release, and put a resolution in motion.

4

Resolve federal, then state

Because Idaho's tax follows the federal return, we settle the IRS side first — a payment plan, penalty relief, or an offer in compromise if you qualify — then bring the Idaho balance in line with the corrected federal picture.

Idaho follows the IRS. That cuts both ways.

When the IRS adjusts a federal return, Idaho expects to hear about it, and it recalculates the state tax on the same changes. People who resolve a federal audit and forget about Boise often get a second bill a year later, with penalties for not reporting the federal change.

The upside is that a federal fix usually shrinks the Idaho problem too. Filing correct returns for the missing years, or getting an unsupported IRS adjustment reversed, flows straight through to the state balance. We handle both agencies so nothing falls into the gap between them.

Offer in compromise

Settling federal tax debt for less than the full balance — when the numbers genuinely support it.

Stopping active IRS collection, often within days, then resolving the balance behind it.

Unfiled tax returns

Reconstructing missing years from IRS records and getting you current with both agencies.

IRS audit representation

We attend so you don't have to. The examiner talks to us; you get a plain-English summary.

Payroll tax relief

Trust fund penalties, missed deposits, and revenue officers — resolved before they become personal.

Installment agreements & hardship status

QUESTIONS, ANSWERED PLAINLY

What Idaho taxpayers
ask us.

Can you represent me before the Idaho State Tax Commission?

Yes. With your signed Idaho power of attorney on file, we correspond and negotiate with the Commission on your behalf, alongside the federal case.

The IRS and Idaho are both garnishing my wages. Which comes first?

Whichever is taking more. Both can be released once a resolution is in place, and we usually address the larger garnishment first while the other is put into a payment arrangement.

I live in Coeur d'Alene. Can I meet you in person?

Yes — Spokane is thirty minutes away, and you're welcome to come sit down with us. Most North Idaho clients still choose to handle everything by phone and upload.

Does Idaho offer settlements like the IRS offer in compromise?

Idaho has its own offer-in-compromise process, with its own financial standards. Qualifying is separate from the federal program, and we evaluate both.

Will you also file my Idaho returns for the unfiled years?

Yes. Reconstructing the federal years produces the numbers the Idaho returns need, and we file both so you're current with each agency.
