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.
