Tax Tip: Look for a Certified Tax Resolution Specialist to Resolve IRS Problems
Want to know the difference between a tax specialist and a Certified Tax Resolution Specialist (CTRS)? Â Tax specialist has no meaning. Certified Tax Resolution Specialists are certified by the American Society of Tax Problem Solvers (ASTPS), a national, not-for-profit organization of professionals who specialize in representing taxpayers before the IRS.
Becoming a Certified Tax Resolution Specialist is not easy, In order to obtain this certification, licensed professionals (tax attorneys, CPAs and enrolled agents) have to take and pass an exam administered by the ASTPS, prove directly related experience in the tax relief niche (two years), and be a CPA, tax attorney or enrolled agent in good standing with their respective state that licenses/regulates them.
In addition, a CTRS is uniquely qualified to successfully solve IRS problems – from negotiating tax settlements and IRS payment plans to removing or modifying IRS and bank levies. So whether you are looking for a tax attorney or a firm comprised of attorneys, CPAs, and enrolled agents you can research the ASTPS site and click on Find a Tax Problem Solver (under Contact) to determine if they are Certified Tax Resolution Specialists.
