Can the IRS garnish my wages if I live in Detroit, MI?
Yes — the IRS can garnish wages anywhere in the US including Detroit. Before garnishing, the IRS must send a Final Notice of Intent to Levy (LT11 or Letter 1058). You have 30 days to request a Collection Due Process hearing, which temporarily stops the levy. If you’ve already received this notice, act immediately — a Detroit specialist can file an emergency CDP request or negotiate a release within 24–72 hours.
What IRS office handles Detroit, Michigan tax cases?
Detroit taxpayers are handled by the IRS Michigan district office. Our specialists know the local IRS agents and their negotiation patterns — which gives Detroit taxpayers a significant advantage compared to working with a national firm that has no local knowledge. The IRS also has Taxpayer Assistance Centers (TACs) in major Michigan cities for in-person appointments.
How much does tax resolution cost in Detroit?
Tax resolution fees in Detroit vary by case complexity: simple installment agreements typically run $500–$1,500; Offer in Compromise cases run $3,500–$8,000 (plus the $205 IRS application fee); full representation with levy release and OIC can run $5,000–$15,000. Uncle Kam’s MERNA™-certified Detroit specialists offer flat-fee pricing with a free initial consultation — so you know exactly what resolution will cost before committing.
Do I qualify for an Offer in Compromise in Detroit?
OIC eligibility is based on your Reasonable Collection Potential (RCP) — a calculation of your income, expenses, and asset equity. In 2026, the IRS accepted approximately 21% of OIC applications. To qualify, you must have filed all required returns, made all required estimated tax payments, and not be in open bankruptcy. The IRS pre-qualifier tool gives a rough estimate, but a Detroit specialist review is essential before applying — a rejected OIC resets the collection statute.
