The IRS is basically a collection agency with a great deal of power granted by Congress to collect what they think the taxpayer owes. Once a tax debt gets into the IRS system, they are relentless in collecting the taxes due plus penalties and interest. Unless the taxpayer pays the full balance owing, penalties and interest will accrue each month there is an outstanding balance.

Some of the powers that the IRS has include:

Wage garnishment this can be very embarrassing to the taxpayer as the garnishee notice goes to the taxpayers employer who will deduct the tax amount from the pay checks and remit it to the IRS. Bank account levies this can cripple a taxpayer financially, especially if the taxpayer is self employed. The funds can come right out of the taxpayers bank account at lightning speed. Tax liens on assets and property seizure if the wage garnishment and the bank account levies do not satisfy the tax debt, the IRS will seize assets such as your home, car or business assetsthen sell them at public auction.
