Levy vs. Lien: What Is The Difference

Understanding the difference between a tax lien and a levy is important because both are serious, but they impact you in different ways.

Tax Lien

A legal claim on your property due to unpaid taxes. It affects the credit and ownership of the taxpayer. For example: A claim placed on your home or vehicle

Tax Levy

The actual seizure of your money or assets by the IRS. It takes the money directly from the taxpayer. For Example: Money taken from your bank account or wages

3 Ways We Stop The Seizure Immediately

null
Receiving a notice of intent to levy does not mean your assets will automatically be taken.
At Hall and Associates Tax Relief Group, our team uses proven methods to stop levy threats and protect our clients’ finances.

1. Request a Collection Due Process (CDP) Hearing

A Collection Due Process hearing allows taxpayers to challenge IRS collection actions after receiving a final notice of intent to levy.
Requesting this hearing within the deadline can temporarily stop levy enforcement while the IRS reviews the case. During this process, alternative solutions such as payment plans or settlements may be explored.

2. File for “Currently Not Collectible” (Hardship Status)

If paying your tax debt would create severe financial hardship, the IRS may classify your account as Currently Not Collectible (CNC).
This status temporarily stops collections related to an IRS notice of intent to levy, including bank levies and wage garnishments, until your financial situation improves.

3. Emergency Installment Agreement Negotiation

Another option after receiving a notice of intent to levy is negotiating an installment agreement with the IRS.
A payment plan allows taxpayers to resolve their tax debt through affordable monthly payments. Once the agreement is approved, collection actions related to the IRS notice of intent to levy are usually paused.

What We Protect From The IRS
