IRS Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Program

The IRS currently has two categories of the Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Program (OVDP): the regular OVDP program, which will accept any taxpayer not already under investigation, and the easier and less expansive streamlined OVDP program, which is simpler and quicker.

The penalties and qualifying requirements vary greatly between the programs and it is imperative that you select the right one as you only get one shot at applying. Failure to select the right program would result in criminal charges or large civil penalties.

The tax law firm of McMahon & Tivnan has helped hundreds of taxpayers through the process.

Complex Business Tax Disputes

Businesses must contend with a multitude of tax issues, any of which can create large problems for the business and its owners. The complexities of business accounting and the tax code often produce tax disputes without a clear answer.

One of the most surprising issues we frequently see affecting small and medium sized businesses is personal liability of the managing individuals for unpaid payroll taxes. Although operating a business through an entity is supposed to protect the owners from individual liability for business debts, many people do not realize there is an exception through which the IRS can take your house and bank account for unpaid business taxes.
