IRS Tax Resolution and Tax Controversy Services
If you owe the IRS more than you can pay right now, you have options, but you also have a decision to make about who helps you sort through them. Simplicity Financial provides an IRS tax relief program as a licensed CPA firm. We review your actual financial situation, determine which programs you may realistically qualify for, and represent you directly with the IRS. We do not promise to settle your debt for pennies on the dollar, and we will not tell you what you want to hear if the numbers do not support it.
Why Work With a CPA Firm, Not a Resolution Company
Many companies that advertise tax debt help are not CPA firms, and some are not staffed by licensed professionals at all. Simplicity Financial is led directly by Shaun Glenn, CPA, MSA, MST. That distinction matters here more than almost anywhere else in accounting, because the IRS bases relief decisions on documented financial facts, not on how the request is worded.
We will not advertise a specific outcome before reviewing your situation, because no CPA can honestly promise one. What we can do is give you an accurate read on where you stand and represent you professionally through the process.

What our Tax Relief Service Typically Includes
- A full review of your financial situation, including assets, income, and allowable expenses
- An honest assessment of which IRS programs you may qualify for
- Preparation and filing of the required documentation
- Direct representation and communication with the IRS on your behalf
- Ongoing guidance so a resolved balance does not turn into a new one
IRS Tax Relief Programs We Help Clients Pursue
Each of these works differently, and not every program fits every situation. Part of this service is determining which one, if any, actually applies to you.
Installment Agreements
A structured plan to pay your balance over time when you can pay in full eventually, just not immediately.
Offer in Compromise
A settlement for less than the full balance owed, based on a documented calculation of what you could reasonably pay. This is not available to everyone, and the IRS only accepts offers that reflect a genuine inability to pay more. If you want a rough sense of where your numbers land before we talk, our Offer in Compromise calculator walks through the same math the IRS starts with.
Currently Not Collectible Status
A pause on active IRS collection when your current income and allowable expenses leave nothing available to pay. This does not erase the balance, and interest continues to accrue.
Penalty Abatement and First Time Abatement
Removal of certain penalties, either because this is your first infraction with a clean filing history, or because of documented reasonable cause.
Our Tax Relief Process
- We review your full financial picture, including past filings if any need to be brought current first.
- We tell you honestly which programs are realistic for your situation, and which are not.
- We prepare and file what is required, and represent you directly with the IRS.
- We help you stay ahead of your obligations going forward, so this does not happen again. For clients who want ongoing support, our tax preparation services keep future filings current and accurate.
If you owe both the IRS and the state, it is worth knowing that a California Franchise Tax Board balance follows separate rules. Resolving one does not resolve the other.
