Testimonial:

Tax Pros & Accounting was able to save me thousands of dollars that I did not have.  I owed the IRS $10,007.80.  When it comes to taxes I have no idea what I am doing and could never figure out how to deal with the IRS.  The money I owed the IRS just kept increasing each month.  Then I took my problem to Fred Rupp at Tax Pros & Accounting.  Fred prepared and sent an Offer in Compromise to the IRS for me.  The offer was for $60.  The IRS accepted it.  I just have to keep current on my yearly taxes due from being self employed.  With Fred’s help, I am attempting to do that.  He was also successful in getting the amount of money I owed Illinois greatly reduced.  Fred is now my go to person for my taxes.

Facts:

Brian K.           Owed IRS $27,550,281

Decreased amount of tax owed by $25,207,214.  Final amount owed was $2,343,067.

Testimonial:

I was a very successful internet entrepreneur.  However, I got very bad investment and tax advice.  I should have paid closer attention to the types of transactions my investment and tax advisors were putting me in.  I was audited by the IRS.  Never a good experience but in my case it actually became a very bad life changing experience.  The IRS auditors said I owed the IRS $27,550,281.  My investment advisors’ actions had virtually wiped out all the money I had made with my internet company.  I sent my 9 boxes of records to Tax Pros & Accounting.  Fred and Alex worked hundreds of hours on my case.  In the end they were successful in reducing my IRS liability by $25,207,214.  A huge savings.  Fred and Alex were a great help in allowing me to put the IRS behind me and get on with my life.

Facts:

James S.          Had not filed a return for 18 years.

In 2013, the last year filed was 1995.

Owed the IRS $150,000.

IRS seized a $120,000 retirement account.

Prepared 18 years of returns.  Money was not owed the IRS, but the IRS owed a refund of $82,019.

Testimonial:

My father, J.S., came to Fred on April 15, 2012.  Fred gave my father advice on how to begin solving his IRS tax problems.  My father did not take any action.  He died in the fall of 2013.  He left me with a massive IRS problem.  The last income tax return my father had filed was for 1995.  During this time, the IRS had put a lien on his retirement accounts and seized over $100,000 of assets from the account.  They had also seized his social security benefits.  I had a mess on my hands.  Fred Rupp at Tax Pros & Accounting was able to help me straighten this mess out.  Fred prepared 18 years of tax returns.  The result was, instead of me owing the IRS, they owed me a refund of $82,019.  Without Fred’s help, I am not sure what I would have done.

Facts:

James G.          Owed IRS $30,000 for 2010 and 2011 tax returns.

Amended the 2010 and 2011 returns and filed 2012 and 2013 returns.

Decreased the amount owed to $4,000.

Testimonial:

The IRS sent me notices I owed them $30,000 from my 2010 and 2011 tax returns.  I put off dealing with the IRS because I was not sure what to do.  While looking for help with my Tax Resolution problem, I found Tax Pros & Accounting.  Fred Rupp looked over my situation and concluded that my 2010 and 2011 returns had been prepared incorrectly by a large national tax company.  He amended the 2010 and 2011 returns.  He then prepared and filed my 2012 and 2013 returns.  The result was that I owed the IRS about $4,000 which Fred is working with the IRS to put on a payment plan.

 Facts:

John M.           Owed the IRS $15,000.

Testimonial:

I was continually getting notices from the IRS about my Corporation.  They said I owed them a lot of money.  I thought my long time accountant was taking care of things, so I simply ignored the notices.  My accountant died suddenly.  My wife and I visited Tax Pros & Accounting and talked to Fred.  I explained the situation and that I owed the IRS $15,000 and an IRS agent was going to put a lien on my house.  Fred reviewed the situation.  He prepared the Corporate 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014 income tax returns.  Turns out my long time accountant really had dropped the ball.  Fred also prepared the payroll tax returns for 2013 and 2014.  We are well on our way to getting this problem behind us and getting the sales of our Corporation going again since we can concentrate on business instead of dealing with the IRS.
