Obtaining Relief From Federal Tax Levies, T. Fogg

T. Keith Fogg

A levy is an administrative means of collecting taxes by seizure or taking of the taxpayer's property to satisfy delinquent tax liabilities. A levy is analogous to, but something more than, an attachment, garnishment, or other similar creditor's remedy. This chapter explains the levy process, the power of a levy and ways for moving past the levy.
