A bank levy freezes funds in your account after the IRS issues a Notice of Intent to Levyβtypically mailed 30 days prior. During that window, you can request a Collection Due Process hearing or submit Form 12153 to appeal. First, collect recent bank statements and complete Form 433-A (Collection Information Statement) to detail income, expenses, and assets. Evaluate relief options: installment agreements divide your unpaid balance into monthly payments; an Offer in Compromise may settle debt for less than owed if hardship is demonstrated. You can also request a βholdβ on your levy while your case is under review. Staying proactiveβfiling returns on time and responding to IRS noticesβprevents escalated enforcement.
