What is an IRS Levy?
A levy is a legal seizure of your property to satisfy a debt. If you do not pay your taxes or make arrangements to settle your debt, the IRS may seize and sell any type of real or personal property that you own or have an interest in. In some cases they can also take a portion of your wages.
Because you have a legal obligation to pay taxes, the IRS has a legal right to take action against you if those taxes are not paid. However, sometimes you are unable to pay taxes due to unfortunate circumstances out of your control. In these situations, you should talk with an attorney to discuss bankruptcy or other options that will help you avoid levies or other tax penalties.
