Frequently asked questions
Will filing a request stop collection?
That depends on the route, the timing and your account. The kit points you to the official guidance and helps you ask the IRS what applies rather than assuming.
Is a lien the same as a levy?
No, and the kit starts by separating them, because the response and timing differ.
Is this tax or legal advice?
No. The kit is an educational template. It does not create a client relationship and does not replace a CPA, enrolled agent or tax attorney. For complex cases, consider professional help or a Low Income Taxpayer Clinic.
How do I get the file after I buy?
Checkout is handled by Gumroad, which emails you a download link right after purchase.
