Appeals and Collection Due Process Hearings
It is possible to appeal IRS collection actions. The two primary procedures are the Collection Due Process (CDP) and the Collection Appeals Program (CAP). The CDP is more complex and is an “after-the-fact” process—one you would use after a Notice of Federal Tax Lien or Final Notice of Intent to Levy have been received. CAP is available for a wider range of collection actions and is usually faster. CDP hearings that are lost can be taken to court however, CAP cannot be. The Esquire Group team of professionals can explain your options and rights and help you determine how to proceed.
