Clear Start Tax Warns Taxpayers: IRS Ramps Up Collections Amid Office Closures and Funding Push

With IRS Enforcement Rising, Clear Start Tax Urges Taxpayers to Take Action Before It's Too Late

IRVINE, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / May 12, 2025 / As the IRS faces widespread office closures due to government budget cuts, the agency has stepped up collection efforts nationwide in a push to raise funding. According to Clear Start Tax, a nationally recognized tax resolution firm, taxpayers are already seeing the impact: more aggressive enforcement, fewer levy releases, and faster escalation on overdue accounts.

"We're seeing a major shift in how the IRS is approaching collections," said the Head of Client Solutions at Clear Start Tax. "They're under pressure to bring in more funds, and that's translating into a surge of aggressive tactics - especially targeting taxpayers with unresolved balances or unfiled returns."

What Taxpayers Need to Know About the IRS Crackdown

Clear Start Tax explains that the IRS has broad authority to collect unpaid taxes. It can issue levies to seize wages, bank accounts, or property; file tax liens that damage credit and block financial transactions; and accelerate penalty and interest accrual on unpaid balances. With many IRS offices closing across the country due to funding cuts, the agency is under increasing pressure to raise revenue through stepped-up enforcement. This includes reducing levy releases and applying more aggressive collection activities on delinquent accounts.

The Risks of Ignoring IRS Notices Now

As enforcement intensifies, Clear Start Tax warns that taxpayers who delay action face severe consequences, including:

  • Garnished paychecks or frozen bank accounts

  • Damaged credit from public tax liens

  • Escalating penalties that rapidly increase the total debt

  • Reduced chances to negotiate relief or settlements

"The sooner taxpayers respond, the more options they have," added the Head of Client Solutions. "We help clients step in early, protect their income, and navigate a resolution strategy before the IRS ramps things up even further."
