One year passes, they don\u2019t hear anything from the IRS, and by the time year two arrives, the task of filing seems more daunting. When seven years have passed, the obstacles to filing look virtually impossible. Making a few changes in your financial habits can help you overcome these obstacles. <\/p>\n
Tax debt and IRS debt often occur when people experience times of financial strain: they may experience sickness, an accident, marital crisis, a layoff or a period of transition in business. With a few changes in your financial lifestyle, you can navigate these periods more gracefully.
