Can Blue Tax really help me if I owe IRS back taxes?

Leave a comment Posted by on January 5, 2012

I’ve seen their ads; can Blue Tax really help me with my past due taxes?  They may.  But will they? 

This is a review for Blue Tax in Los Angeles, CA.  Blue Tax, Los Angeles, CA does not meet irs back tax help‘s hiring criteria.  If you have questions about this review, please reference:  bp55.

  • ~76% of all Offers in Compromise were rejected last year. 
  • ~1% of “in-business” Offers in Compromise were accepted last year. 
  • So be careful if someone is pushing you solely in this direction.  It is a high risk tax solution.   

If you know you need to take action, read my article “IF” you should hire IRS back tax help.  (You should not automatically.) Titled “Owe IRS back taxes? When, who, and how do I hire IRS back tax help?” before you do anything else.

As usual, If you like the tone of this writing, I would like to refer you to someone who meets irs back tax help criteria.  Please contact irs back tax help.  Before you email me, please click on and read “About irs back tax help.”

Blue Tax Marketing Approach:  Blue Tax Los Angeles CA IRS Back Tax Help

There are a lot of good tax resolution companies out there.  These two links will help you tell who’s who:

 You should not hire back tax help unless there is a good reason.  The real first question if back taxes are owed to the IRS, is not whom to hire, but “IF” you should hire anyone to help if you owe back taxes.  Let’s inject some common sense into the situation.  Read the link above, it will help you decide “IF”.  

Let’s inject some common sense into the tax problem if you are looking for IRS help.  Read the link above, it will help you decide “IF” you actually need to hire IRS back tax help.  Have an IRS emergency caused by an IRS bank levy or seizure?  Take the time to read both of these links.  They are focused on your best interests, not a tax resolution company’s.  

  • Blue Tax wants you to hire them if you owe back taxes to the IRS.  However, do not hire the first tax resolution company you call or calls you about your IRS tax problem.  Make them compete for you business with at least one other company who meets the hiring criteria for irs back tax help.
  • When an IRS tax lien (IRS Notice of Federal Tax Lien, IRS Form 668(y)) is filed with the county recorder, it becomes public record.  Then Blue Tax may collect this information and contact businesses and individuals with IRS tax lien filings.

Instead, take control of this IRS tax problem on your terms.  Here’s how: (3 steps, 10 minutes)

  • STEP 1:  Before you have a discussion with Blue Tax, read Google & BBB reviews & complaints. 
  • STEP 2:  When you are ready, call Blue Tax if you are OK with their reviews & complaints and get the name of the person who will represent you and check them out. 
  • STEP 3:  Re-Contact Blue Tax if you are satisfied with Steps 1 & 2.  Then get a Second Opinion on How to handle your IRS Tax Debt.  (That’s a hint!)
  • All the steps for the Blue Tax Review are completed below.

It is valid to be concerned about the IRS’ actions, and to take action yourself, but a knee jerk reaction could cause greater IRS problems down the road.  When the IRS goes into enforced collection mode, it’s worthwhile to take a measured approach to fix the tax problem.

STEP 1:  Before you have a discussion with Blue Tax Read Google & BBB Reviews & Complaints:

Blue Tax Review from the Los Angeles, CA, Better Business Bureau looks like this: 

  • Business started 2008
  • Time BBB accredited:  2 years

  • 29 Complaints as of 1/5/2013, up 15 from 14 Complaints as of 2/4/2012.  Trending is headed the wrong direction if you are trying to solve a back tax problem.  Majority of complaints are service related.

  • Blue Tax BBB Review, Los Angeles, CA
  • A quick note:  When using the Better Business Bureau to research companies, it is probably best to use the BBB as a “de-selector” rather than a reason to hire someone.  The BBB solicits companies to become a member; so it is relatively easy to remain in good standing and keep an “A” letter grade.  The nature of the company is better seen by how many complaints they have accumulated over the last 3 years, which is the standard BBB reporting period.  A good rule of thumb is no more than one complaint per year, or three complaints total.  Size and age of a company are irrelevant.  It really boils down to how they treated their clients during the reporting period.  
  • Blue Tax should have less than three complaints total.  There are plenty of tax resolution companies who meet this standard, so don’t settle for less.  If you’re having trouble finding a tax resolution company with 3 complaints or less, I’m happy to help.  I can be reached at irsbacktaxhelp@gmail.com.

STEP 3:  Re-Contact Blue Tax if you are satisfied with Steps 1 & 2.  Then get a Second Opinion on How to handle your IRS Tax Debt.  (That’s a hint!)

Knowledge is power, so the second opinion is important.  Overall, if you are thinking of hiring Blue Tax, listen to them and then see what the second opinion says about your tax problems. Of course, we would like to be that second opinion, but as long as you take the time to do a little homework as listed in the first link above, you’ll probably be fine.  Click “About irs back tax help” to learn about us or read irs back tax help Testimonials to see how we treat people.
