IRS Notices, Letters and Forms Collections Form 668-W(c)

The IRS uses Form 668-W(c) (Form 668-W) to notify your employer and you of a levy against your wages. This can be a very difficult situation. If you have unfiled returns, the IRS will not release the levy.

 

Your employer is required to turn over non-exempt wages and you should inform them of any dependents you have.  Form 668-W (c ) has a section where you indicate the number of exemptions.  This information will be used by your employer to determine HOW MUCH OF YOUR PAYCHECK YOU GET TO KEEP.

 

If you take no action, the wage levy is often greater than 90% of your wage and it is continuous until released by the IRS.

 

Two things are required to resolve this issue 1) full tax compliance & 2) financial disclosure.

 

You must complete a Form 433A (if assigned to a Revenue Officer) or Form 433F (if assigned to Automated Collections Service) to disclose your income & assets to the IRS.  Your goal is to secure a levy release, hopefully before the next paycheck. Get the fax number for your employer’s payroll department so the IRS can fax the release directly to your payroll department, IF successful. Understand, the IRS will not release a levy if you haven’t filed all legally required returns.

 

One way to stop an IRS wage levy immediately is to file bankruptcy, IF you qualify. That stops all collection action but it may not be an advisable path because the taxes may not be dischargeable. So, after the bankruptcy is completed the IRS will renew enforced collection & you’ll be in the same position as before the bankruptcy.
