Returns must be filed and tax payments made by Aug. 31 for vehicles used on the road...

The Internal Revenue Service has just recently released a statement saying that they will be shutting down their efiling servers during Labor Day Weekend. Now, what does this mean? The IRS wants all e-filers to take note that they will have up until 1 pm (Eastern Time) on August 31st to complete their Form 2290’s if their vehicle’s first month of use was either in July or August.

Owing debt to the IRS is not similar to owing debt to the credit card companies and the other financial institutions. When you don’t pay your taxes for a long time, you accumulate them and this is when you start incurring debt for which the IRS may run behind your back for recuperation of the money. Just as you can settle your credit card debt, you can even settle or negotiate your IRS debt through a professional...
