Tax season is stressful enough—but this year, there’s an even bigger reason to be on high alert. The IRS is struggling. With over $20 billion in budget cuts and a hiring freeze that has left them understaffed, business owners are facing an IRS that’s slower, less responsive, and more aggressive in enforcement.
If you’ve ever been frustrated by IRS delays, long phone hold times, or confusing tax letters, brace yourself—this year will be worse. The worst part? If you make a mistake, there won’t be enough IRS agents to resolve it quickly. One wrong move could cost you thousands, if not more.
This is not the year to take chances. This is the year to have IRSProb on your side.
The IRS Is Understaffed, But Their Focus on Enforcement Isn’t Going Anywhere
The IRS has stopped hiring new agents, but that doesn’t mean they’ve stopped enforcing tax laws. In fact, it’s quite the opposite.
With fewer resources to handle routine cases, the IRS will focus more on audits, penalties, and enforcement to increase revenue. That means:
- Delayed Refunds & Processing – Expect your tax return to take longer, especially if anything requires IRS review.
- More Audit Scrutiny – The IRS will prioritize businesses and self-employed individuals, where they believe errors and unpaid taxes are most common.
- Inexperienced IRS Agents Handling Cases – If you get audited or receive a notice, you may be dealing with an undertrained, overwhelmed agent who doesn’t fully understand business tax law. This could lead to wrongful penalties that cost you serious money.
If your business gets caught in the IRS’s slow-moving system, it could be months—if not years—before you see a resolution. You don’t have time for that.
What Happens If You Ignore IRS Notices?
Imagine checking your mailbox one morning and finding an IRS letter. Maybe it’s an audit notice or a demand for additional tax payments. Your stomach drops. What now?
Many business owners do one of three things:
- Ignore the letter and hope it goes away.
- Try to handle it themselves, spending hours navigating confusing IRS language and complex tax laws.
- Panic and pay whatever the IRS claims they owe, even if it’s wrong—just to make the problem go away.
None of these options work. Ignoring the IRS leads to penalties, interest, and potential asset seizures. Handling it alone is a nightmare. And overpaying means you’re throwing away money you don’t actually owe.
You don’t want to deal with the IRS alone. That’s where we come in.
