I am a single parent of a minor child, I am a 64 year old disabled vet and now homeless at the unclean hands of the IRS. My problem started with legitimate tax advantaged investments in solar energy under tax guidelines put in place by congress after the Arab oil embargo in the 70's. This was prior to the 86 tax reform act. The IRS disallowed the shelter investments and assessed impossible penalties and interest. Without notice to me the IRS levied all my sources of income. I was forced to file chapter 1 1 to protect my property and attempt to sell off real estate assets to pay the tax, but the IRS insisted the case be changed to Chapter 7 liquidation. All of my property acquired over a lifetime was lost to foreclosure creating more taxes. Due to stress d ealing with these monsters, I had a stroke and fell off a roof and was hospitalized with a back injury, another stroke and angina. My wife went into deep depression leaving me taking our son whom she severely abused. I eventually got my son back. Then AG AIN WITH OUT NOTICE they went after my life savings in IRA plans. Now on CHRISTMAS I received a notice FINAL NOTICE PRIOR TO TAKING SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFITS!, dated December 24 2001 Merry Christmas. After a lifetime of service to my country I believe this is just to much. I PRAY CONGRESS WILL STOP THIS EVIL THAT IS DESTROYING SO MANY LIVES.

A business I worked for had a dissolution of partnership. The main investor approached me to keep the business running to pay down the debt in exchange for owning the business years down line after all debt was paid off. The previous partners had a tax de bt on 941 taxes. An arrangement was made to make 1000 dollar payments per month on the past due amount for taxes. One month I decided the company needed to move to a smaller warehouse. I talked the move over with the IRS agent and came up with a plan to p repay 8 months of installment payments to buy some time and not have a monthly bill due. She agreed to the arrangement and the cashiers check clearly noted that I was paying 8 installment payments on the agreement. The very next month the IRS claimed I ow ed a 1000 dollar payment. I mentioned the arrangement I had made with the IRS officer. They disagreed and seized the business two weeks later. When they came in they had enough agents to wage war, and several agents in black trench coats with who know wha t under them. At the time I offered them 3000 dollars, or if they would allow me to finish a job we were printing to pay the entire debt off in three days. Five minutes later after threats of having me arrested by sheriffs, my entire life, income, 20 year s of hard work, my employees jobs, my customer's assets were gone. During the thirty days prior to auction I offered all I could come up with, they never got back to me. On the day of the auction I still offered all the money I had, my employees voluntee red there own money. They refused all offers saying it was too late. They sold 1.5 million dollars of equipment for $37,000. The bank had first rights to the money and took it all, so the IRS got paid nothing!!! They just wanted to terrorize and destroy someone. I lost everything. I have since gone bankrupt, lived on the street, my children have gone without food, the IRS is as evil as any enemy of the people.IRS Abuse Report #631

It started in 1989. We made some mistakes in the amount of deductions from our pay and ended up owing the IRS about $2000. At the time we were just barely getting by. We got a payment plan and that was that, we thought. I was in Aerospace and my wife was in Land Title. both crashed in 1990 and we were both laid off within a month of each other. We lost our house. The IRS came in and said we had a $12000 capitol gains bill from the foreclosure. After 6 months we finally were back to work but the bill with interest and penalties had risen to $20,000. The payment plan they put us on (since we could only afford a small amount) did nothing to the balance. Over the next 4 years the bill had risen to $25,000. We bit the bullet and hired an attorney to do an Offe r in Compromise. It was done and accepted. The end?.....not on your life! The IRS officer said that if we ended up owing any taxes during the payoff period the Offer in Compromise would be void and we would owe all the taxes as before. Ok, I asked "this y ear I think we owe a small amount, what should we do" The officer replied "don't worry about it, just pay it". "Ok". Before we were able to send the check (which was only weeks after the Offer in Compromise was accepted) the IRS came back and VOIDED the Offer in Compromise due to us owing the taxes for that same year we got the Offer in Compromise . Now the bill is up to $40,000. Well, to date the bill is now up to $75,000 and $5000 in lawyers fees trying to get another Offer in Compromise. Today, we ju st got the news, the new Offer in Compromise which was in essence the same as the first one was REJECTED!! The appeal process could lest 2 years now. I wonder what the bill will be by then. GOD IN HEAVEN...HELP US!! until the appeal is completed we can n ot have any more income than we have now. I must turn down any raises, bonuses, any extra income of any kind. Anything we could have done to try to catch the American Dream is now down the tubes.

In 1980, I was 18 years old when I had my daughter. I was a single mother, trying to raise my daughter. It was hard, but I seemed to manage. In 1986 I got a loan to go to school to try and make a better life for myself and my daughter. I finished and trie d to find a decent paying job. I fell upon hard times, being that my daughter needed certain medical attention, I began to fall behind on my loan payments,(total student loan was $2500.00) and the jobs weren't coming like I expected. In 1988, I was barely making minimum wage as a clerk in a convenience store when I received a letter from the IRS saying they were going to start keeping my tax returns. My daughter was to begin school that year, she was a very shy and sensitive little girl, she never asked f or much, although I suspected that in her young mind I'm sure she knew we couldn't afford much which meant that she never expected too much. She was (and still is) my little angel, my gift from God. Well needless to say, that year she didn't get the new c lothes to start school with, nor the next, nor the next, nor the next etc...etc... we shopped at the local good will store. I know in my heart she was teased about her clothes, but we bought the best clothes my money could buy. The first week of school, a kid on the bus slapped her in the face and knocked off her glasses and they broke. In 1986 their cost was around three hundred and sixty dollars, I worked extra jobs, cutting neighbors grass, cleaning houses to scrape up the money so she could see. She w as almost legally blind in one eye at birth.
Well let's see its 2002, 14 years later, she is 21 now, and I still haven't received a income tax refund. They said they had been offsetting it to the US DEPT of EDUCATION toward the student loan, but every time I called to see how close I was to paying it off to loan, the Dept had no record of receiving any money from the IRS. The IRS doesn't know anything, the DEPT of EDUCATION doesn't know anything, I don't know anything, Who knows, WHO KNOWS?
As of today I am $5,135.68 in debt. 14 years and I am deeper in debt than when I started. The IRS religiously sends me my statements about every two weeks, and the amount increases with every one I get. Last week I got a letter from the social security of fice saying that I need to make more money, at my current rate when I retire I will get $157.38 a month.IRS Abuse Report #633

In 1987 and 1988 I worked for someone who reported me as contract labor even though I worked for him. I battled with the IRS regarding this matter until 1994 when the IRS allowed me to fill out a form that would determine my status with this employer. Th e IRS ruled that I was not self-employed and never met the criteria. Still, this matter has escalated and now the IRS has a lien recorded in one county and a lien and judgment against me in another county. Wherever the IRS thinks I'm living they record a lien even though I don't own anything. This information is also on my credit report. The have garnished all my wages even though I was married with children. So much for the taxpayers' Bill of Rights and due process.
