What affects the price
The final amount you pay for tax relief services depends on several moving parts. Professionals usually base their fees on the sheer complexity of your financial situation and how much back-tax debt you currently owe the IRS. If you own property, have multiple income streams, or require help with complex audits, the labor involved increases. We also look at the specific resolution program you qualify for, as some filings require more documentation than others.
About this service
These were direct payments issued by the federal government during the pandemic to provide financial relief to households. If you believe you were eligible but never received your payment, you may be able to claim it as a Recovery Rebate Credit when you file your annual tax return. Since these programs are now closed, checking your records or speaking with a tax professional is the best way to determine if you missed out on funds you were rightfully owed.
