For many people, receiving a bill from the IRS is a terrifying experience. It is so traumatic, they will remember the experience for the rest of their lives. And that is just the beginning. Back taxes, interest and penalties add up quickly. By the time you receive the notice, your alleged debt to the IRS can be more than the cost of buying a house.

There is hope if you know what to do about it.
