Lien Removal | IRS Tax Notice CP-504b

If the IRS has made a notice and demand for payment of back taxes (CP-504B) and you have failed to respond, a lien will automatically arise in favor of the federal government. A tax lien gives the IRS a legal claim to your property and is a way for the IRS to ensure that they will collect the back taxes that you owe. The IRS will typically issue and file a Notice of Federal Tax Lien (Form 668), informing you that a lien has been filed over all your property rights as well as informing you of your right to a Collection Due Process hearing (CDP).

A tax lien makes it extremely difficult to sell property that you own or to secure loans or lines of credits with banks or other financial institutions. In this tough economy, a lien can have a huge impact on a homeowner who wants to buy or sell a home or obtain a line of credit or other loan. It also may negatively affect businesses that need to secure loans to finance the operations of its business.
