IRS Truth
Source: IRS recordsWhat does the IRS actually show?
Start with transcripts, assessments, payments, penalties, missing returns, notices, collection activity, and the dates that shape the case.
A modern tax-resolution framework
Tax relief software should start with the truth.
Before choosing a resolution, establish what the IRS shows, what the taxpayer can afford, and what circumstances affect the case. Together, those facts establish the current case state. Then determine the strategy, execute the work, and verify what happened.

01 / Establish the facts
Three truths define the case.
A defensible strategy begins with evidence from three different sources. Together, they establish the current state of the case.
Review
Financial Truth
Source: Financial analysisWhat can the taxpayer actually do?
Understand income, necessary expenses, assets, equity, cash flow, future compliance, and realistic ability to pay.
Human Truth
Source: Documented contextWhat does the data not tell us?
Account for hardship, household and business realities, health, timing, goals, practical constraints, and risk tolerance.
02 / Decision point
Facts before programs.
Tax resolution should not begin by deciding someone needs an Offer in Compromise, installment agreement, Currently Not Collectible status, penalty relief, or another predetermined program. First establish the case. Then evaluate which paths actually fit.
Candidate paths: installment agreement, Offer in Compromise, Currently Not Collectible, penalty relief, compliance work, and collection response.
Understand strategy03 / Execution
Strategy has to become work.
A recommendation does not resolve an IRS problem. Every requirement needs an owner, evidence, deadline, and verifiable status.

04 / Verification
Do not stop at “submitted.”
Action performed and outcome achieved are different things. Outcome claimed and outcome verified are different things. Check authoritative evidence, compare the expected and observed result, then use new evidence to refresh the case.
