What affects the price
When you look into tax relief, costs aren't one-size-fits-all. The final number usually depends on the total amount you owe the IRS, the complexity of your financial situation, and the specific programs you qualify for—like an Offer in Compromise or an installment agreement. If you have assets like a home, that can also change how the IRS views your ability to pay. Your situation is unique, so we ensure exact pricing is confirmed free on the call.
About this service
Eligibility for past stimulus payments was based on your adjusted gross income, tax filing status, and whether you had qualifying dependents. If your income was below certain thresholds, you were generally entitled to the full amount. If you believe you qualified but never received the money, the process to recover those funds involves filing a tax return for the relevant year. We can help you understand if you are still eligible to claim these as a tax credit.
