SUMMARY - Optima Tax's management has been in contact with the client and we’re working towards a mutual resolve RESPONSE - Optima Tax’s management has been in communication with the client to address her concerns as outlined in the complaintWe appreciate the client’s concerns with her
case, but at no point do Optima Tax representatives provide any misleading or informationThe client’s case is extremely complex and requires a great attention to detailGiven certain factors in the client’s case, the IRS has the right to implement certain enforcement action to secure its interest in the outstanding liability Although the action the IRS took was not financially detrimental, we understand that this is a burden and Optima Tax is working towards options to relinquish the actions the IRS tookPrior to receiving the complaint, the client was presented with various optionsOptima Tax’s management went over those options again in detail and the client now has a better understanding of our strategyMore so, the client wishes to continue the business relationship with Optima Tax At Optima Tax we strive to uphold the philosophy that "clients come first" and all of our representatives go through rigorous training to assure we abide by that philosophyWe take all complaints very seriously, and we do our best to turn them around when possibleOptima Tax believes it has addressed the client's concerns appropriately and will continue to work with the client until we come to a final resolve and finalize their casePlease do not hesitate to contact Optima Tax with any questionsThank you

SUMMARY -
Optima Tax's management made
contact with the client to discuss his concerns as outlined in the complaint
RESPONSE
-
Optima Tax’s management has made
contact with the client to discuss his concerns as outlined in the complaintOptima
Tax’s services are broken down into two Phases, an Investigation Phase and a
Resolution PhaseThe client signed up with the understanding that Optima will
perform a thorough Investigation onlyThe client was aware of the fee and it
was promptly paid for our servicesAs part of our Investigation Phase we will
contact the IRS to obtain any and all available information pertaining to the
client’s outstanding balanceOnce we have gathered all relevant information
from the IRS and the client, we develop a Case Summary that outlines the
services we can perform to help the client with their tax liability
The
client asserts that he notified us of a Tax Court Summons that he received and
we failed to make any inquiryHowever, we would like to point out the fact
that the client never provided us with any Summons nor did the IRS ever mention
anything about a pending Tax Court proceeding, during any of our conversations
or in the documents they provided to usThis leads us to believe that his
court issue perhaps revolves around a matter outside his tax liabilityAfter
we presented the client with our findings and how we can help regarding his
personal tax liability, he unfortunately felt our retainer for the Resolution
Phase was unaffordableDespite our effort to accommodate client’s request,
considering the significant amount of work that would’ve been involved in the
case, we unfortunately could not fulfill his requestWe
respectfully, yet firmly stress that at no point did our associates threaten
the clientThere are no facts supporting such contention and it is regrettable
if there were any misunderstanding.
Although we had fully performed our contractual obligations as outlined
in the Client Services Agreement and we would like to be recognized for our
work, we understand that disagreements occur and accordingly, we have been in
constant contact with the client and we came to a mutually satisfying
agreement
At
Optima Tax we strive to uphold the
philosophy that "clients come first" and all of our representatives
go through rigorous training to
assure we abide by that philosophyWe take all complaints very seriously, and
we do our best to turn them around when possibleOptima
Tax believes it has addressed the client's concerns
appropriately and considers the matter closed Please
do not hesitate to contact Optima Tax with any questionsThank you

[Please do not put this on my schedule as to why we can’t establish communication. It was clear in my recent correspondence and calls with Optima Tax Relief that I get off work at 5:30pm (Central Time). Why not mention here that I’ve been calling the company at exactly 5:30pm (Central Time) and all I get is a person who can only relay messages to the “Executive Relations Department.” With the failed attempts to reach you, I’m looking forward to a ‘solid line of communication’ as you mentioned
My statements in the second response are true and by all means be verified with the IRS (as notes are recorded). I have documentation that manual payments were made religiously on my end as advised. Shouldn’t the follwith IRS to check on the status of the Installment Agreement be done sooner by Optima Tax Relief? Perhaps in April or the time when I received another LTnotice in July 2016? It was your duty to follwith the IRS to ensure that the Agreement was in place and not just bank on a fax confirmation Can you please provide any confirmation or folldone after this was faxed on March 14th? You also used the premise that I’ve been paying the agreed upon Installment Agreement amount and that supports your position that you have successfully established a resolution. Of course, I’ve been making the payments as instructed by you, but it doesn’t mean that the IRS is aware of an Installment Agreement in place. You may go ahead and verify my conversations with the IRS, but the last thing I would do is have you represent me on this matter again I understand that I did not qualify for penalty abatement and acknowledge the penalties and interest that may accrue. My question here is timing. At what point did you find out that I did not qualify for penalty abatement? Sometime last year? And how long does the review process take to assess this? Going back to my second response, your reason in August why the penalty abatement was not approved is because I had balances to pay off the taxes. Then why not suggest this sooner since you knew this all along? Should I have known (or been told sooner) that a penalty abatement was not an option, then I would have “stopped the bleeding” and not wait until August 2016. This was not presented clearly and again, I was only offered the two options: the Installment Agreement (which is the first matter still in question) or cannot pay balance option. The reason why I contracted with Optima Tax Relief is to ultimately lower my taxes (as what the company claims/advertises).]

They are correct that they tried twice to reach me without success, but we did connect on the third attempt and the matter has been resolved. I'm sure that with the holidays, this just hasn't updated completely

SUMMARY - Optima Tax's management has attempted to make contact with the client but the

I had been receiving letters from the IRS for several years for a year that I had never filed a tax return and for another year where I had, but owed taxes forI decided to contact Optima before the IRS decided to start garnishing my wagesThe process is not cheap, but I would gladly pay double what I paid to have my tax problem completely resolved the way Optima did! Any time I had a question, my contact person at Optima was always quick to answer my questionI went from the IRS saying I owed close to $200,to not having to pay them a single penny!
I would definitely recommend using their services!!
