Common Questions About Taxes and the IRS

What do professional tax attorneys charge in Cape Coral?

Hiring a tax attorney costs $300 to $750 for basic notice responses, $1,500 to $5,000 for audit representation, and $7,500+ for complex litigation. Your final cost depends on the size of your debt, the difficulty of your case, and the amount of documentation you need to gather. Port St. Lucie residents often face tax issues after relocating from states with different income tax rules. Schedule a free case evaluation to receive your exact quote.

What are the IRS penalties for unfiled tax returns?

The IRS charges a 5% monthly penalty for unfiled returns up to 25% of unpaid tax plus 0.5% monthly failure-to-pay penalty. Filing your returns stops certain collection actions like wage garnishment and bank levies.

You may qualify for streamlined installment agreements if you owe under $50,000. Taxes over three years old may qualify for bankruptcy discharge. We file your missing returns, coordinate state filings within 60 to 90 days, and stop IRS collection.

Can a tax attorney lower IRS penalties and interest?

Tax attorneys lower IRS penalties but rarely reduce interest charges because the IRS only abates interest for processing delays exceeding 45 days. The IRS typically decides penalty relief requests within 30 to 60 days, and you must file penalty relief claims within three years of paying the penalty.

We file penalty abatement requests documenting reasonable cause or first-time relief eligibility, pursue interest abatement when IRS delays caused additional charges, and ensure all claims meet the three-year filing deadline to preserve your relief rights.

What Happens If The IRS Finds Out I Didn't File FBAR?

If the IRS finds out you did not file FBAR, penalties can apply even six years after the due date. Many Cape Coral clients find missed filings during account reviews, and virtual currency accounts may also count. The Delinquent FBAR Submission Procedures can resolve cases with no penalty, but you should gather five years of statements for review first.

Can a tax accountant fix my crypto calculations from multiple exchanges?

Yes, a tax accountant can reconcile transactions across multiple exchanges and correct calculation errors using Form 8949. International exchange users claim foreign tax credits for taxes paid to other countries. Privacy coins like Monero require FBAR reporting if foreign exchange balances exceed $10,000.

Export CSV files from all exchanges by January 31st to capture complete transaction histories. Your accountant determines if you qualify as a business under IRC Section 162, which allows full expense deductions instead of limited investment deductions under Section 212.
