What do famous people like Nicolas Cage, Val Kilmer, Randy Quaid, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Dustin Diamond; rappers and hip hop artists Diddy, Flavor Flav, DMX, and M.C. Hammer; reality star and bounty hunter ‘Dog’ Chapman; pugilists Julio Caesar Chavez and Floyd Mayweather; ACORN, American Legion, Girls Gone Wild founder Joe Francis, Olympic champion Michael Phelps, and heiress Anna Nicole Smith all have in common? Answer: they have all made the news of late by being hit with the embarrassing Internal Revenue Service tax lien.

I just completed checking out the internet to unearth all these recognized individuals, and in between the post describing their income tax troubles I also saw a bunch of accountants and tax attorneys posting to their websites info telling everyone that if the Internal Revenue Service files a lien against you we should all be afraid; very terrified. Well, they didn’t say it like that exactly, mostly they played on the anxiety most individuals have about hassling with with the Internal Revenue Service. They also played off the ruinous consequence that a Federal tax lien can have on your status. Most importantly these Certified Public Accountants and tax lawyers are telling us all that if we have an IRS  tax lien we most certainly should pursue professional guidance; first from them.

Over the last 10 years or so, I’ve been looking at the topic of Internal Revenue Service tax lien removal and have discovered some statutory provisions that should provide you a basis to calm down and put these anxieties aside.

First of all, I want to bring to your rememberance that the Scriptures tell us that perfect love casts out fear. See 1 John 4:18. If you feel afraid, based on this Scripture, it is time to focus on the perfecting of your love. Also, the  Certified Public Accountants  and tax lawyers who try to use your fear to get your business need to study Isaiah 8:12; the Scriptures tell us there that we are not to make others in fear or in dread.

Secondly, I wanted to make you aware that Congress has put some excellent tools at our disposal for getting Federal tax liens removed, without paying the Federal government money that I did not see a single Certified Public Accountant  or tax lawyer discuss in all of the blog posts I reviewed.

I was reviewingTitle 26 statutes one day and came across 26 USC § 6323(j). This is the very last of several subsections and seems to be buried at the bottom on purpose. (j)(1) of that section starts out, “The Secretary may withdraw a notice of a lien filed under this section…” Ah ha! This is getting my interest and it should yours as well. Subsection (j)(1)(A) continues by explaining when the notice of lien can be withdrawn, when the filing of such notice was not in accordance with administrative procedures of the Secretary.

With respect to your credit, section (j)(2) provides that if you ask them too, the Secretary shall promptly make reasonable efforts to notify credit reporting agencies, financial institutions or creditors whose name and address you specify of the withdrawal of such notice.

So, what you need to know is how the IRS failed to follow their administrative procedures and I spell that out for you in my IRS lien removal video and in my Federal tax lien removal website. I learned about these defects in their procedures by reading Treasury Inspector General Audit Reports. Secondly, you need to know how to apply some leverage to force the IRS to act on the statute on your behalf. I have some good news for you on that as well.
