Tax debt doesn’t just affect your wallet — it affects your peace of mind, your family, and your business. Across Orange County, from Anaheim and Santa Ana to Irvine and Huntington Beach, many Californians face mounting IRS pressure, late-payment penalties, and the constant stress of collection notices.
At Shaan Afridi CPA, we help Orange County residents regain control. Our tax resolution services are built on trust, expertise, and local insight — because solving tax problems isn’t just about numbers. It’s about protecting people, livelihoods, and futures.
The Hidden Dangers of Ignoring Tax Debt
Unpaid taxes can escalate quickly. What starts as a missed payment can spiral into aggressive IRS action. In communities like Newport Beach, Costa Mesa, and Garden Grove, we’ve seen how fast the situation can worsen if left unaddressed.
Here’s what can happen when tax debt goes unresolved:
1. Federal Tax Liens
The IRS may file a federal tax lien on your property, giving them legal claim to your assets. A lien can destroy your credit, complicate real estate transactions, and make it nearly impossible to refinance your home or business.
2. Bank Levies
With a bank levy, the IRS can freeze and seize funds directly from your accounts. For small business owners and working families, this can cause immediate cash flow crises and missed obligations.
3. Wage Garnishments
The IRS can legally take a portion of each paycheck until your balance is paid in full. This can drastically reduce take-home pay and create financial strain that’s hard to recover from.
Ignoring the problem gives the IRS more leverage — but working with a professional gives you back control.
Professional Tax Debt Relief Solutions
At Shaan Afridi CPA, we use proven strategies to negotiate directly with the IRS and protect your income, assets, and reputation. Every solution is tailored to your specific financial situation and long-term goals.
Installment Agreements
We negotiate affordable monthly payment plans that stop IRS collection actions and help you pay down your balance over time.
Offers in Compromise
For qualified taxpayers, we pursue an Offer in Compromise (OIC) — allowing you to settle your tax debt for less than the full amount owed. This requires detailed financial analysis and expert negotiation, which our CPA team handles on your behalf.
Currently Not Collectible (CNC) Status
If you’re experiencing hardship, we can request CNC status — a temporary pause on all IRS collection activity until your finances stabilize.
Audit Representation and Defense
If your tax returns have been flagged or you’ve received an audit notice, Shaan Afridi CPA provides full audit defense. We communicate directly with the IRS, manage documentation, and protect your rights every step of the way.
