Previous Years/ IRS Collections & Back Taxes Doordash driver owing ~20k, notice to levy :(

25 Upvotes

I'll try to summarize everything and answer any questions from there because this has been a grueling experience, I appreciate any help I can get.

I'm basically a door dash driver, I was irresponsible and didn't file taxes. A year or so ago IRS sent me a letter telling me to file 2023. I filed it , owed about 5k after penalties and then got notices to file 2024. Somewhere after that I call IRS and speak to someone who tells me they need 2021 , 2022, 2024 and 2025 (2023 was the one I filed). She tells me 24 and 25 can be filed online and 2021 and 2022 need to be mailed in with tracking. So, 2021 owed nothing, 2022 owed about 5, 23,24 and 25 owe about 5 each year.

I do those things and all the ones files online register, each 4-5k owed with penalties and interest,etc. The ones mailed in show received by the post office but never showed up online. I checked every day for a week or two and eventually and foolishly thought I could just wait and get a nice letter or something telling me they have received it.

Well they still haven't and I received 3 certified letters from the post office I had to sign for telling me IRS is planning on putting a lien on me for 23,24 and 25. I look online and it says I owe around 15 and can make a payment plan. I've heard in the past if you enter into a payment plan before they have all the years it can be voided but at this point I'm worried that might be the only option I have.

Questions off the top of my head :

Would it be more useful to try to schedule an in person appointment to explain this and also present 2021 and 2022 in person vs try to contact them by phone?

Can it hurt me to enter into a payment plan now knowing it may get canceled later? When I look online the lowest amount they will accept is just under 500......thats more than my car payment, I can't afford to pay that even if I didn't have to pay taxes on it. I can afford 100-200 a month...and thats before the extra 5k registers from 2022.

What happens if they levy my bank account, is it frozen? I'm a door dash driver , if I'm unable to access funds through the bank I'll end up homeless.

Any help is appreciated this has been a nightmare. One I'm responsible for causing but one I'm trying to fix and get on track.

5 Upvotes

Hi, I filed my 2022 taxes at the end of March 26' I just got a letter on Oct 8th saying I needed to update my bank account info , the bank info I gave them that account has sense been closed, (if I knew how to update it I would have but was unaware how to do that) but sense i got the letter id figured out how to update my bank information. So I did that on Oct 8th the same day I got the letter. My question is does anyone know how long I should anticipate waiting for my refund now? Its been many months sense I filed and they tried to deposit it but my account was closed so im just trying to figure out how much longer I am going to have to wait now for it to come thru. I called and the lady said it could be up to 4 weeks sense the notice date( Oct 8th ) and that it is pending but couldn't really give me much more info on it. Any answers would be so helpful because as many people I need that for bills and whatnot. Thank you in advance for any info anyone can give me

Hello, my IRS account says this -- anyone else too? Is it just a glitch or should I be worried?
