FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS **Is the report really free?** Yes. A licensed CPA at KGOB pulls your complete IRS file, reads every line, and delivers a written report. No cost. No recurring charges. If issues are found and you want help fixing them, that's a separate conversation. **Do you handle businesses and trusts, or just individuals?** All three. KGOB reviews IRS accounts for individuals, businesses of all types (LLCs, S-Corps, C-Corps, partnerships), and trusts & estates. **What if my report shows issues — can you help fix them?** Yes. KGOB can step in and handle resolution — reducing penalties, setting up payment plans, negotiating with the IRS, defending against TFRP, etc. What it costs depends on what needs to be done. Your CPA explains everything before any work begins. **How do you access my IRS records?** Via IRS Form 2848 (Power of Attorney and Declaration of Representative) — the standard IRS-approved authorization for licensed tax professionals. **How long does the report take?** After you sign Form 2848, the IRS typically takes a few business days to process it. Once records are released to us, the CPA team completes your report promptly. You'll be updated throughout. **Do you cover state tax issues too?** Yes. In addition to your federal IRS account, we review applicable state tax records — California FTB, New York DTF, Florida DOR, Illinois IDOR, Texas Comptroller, and all other state agencies. **What IRS notices can your report help with?** All of them — CP14 (balance due), CP2000 (underreported income), CP504 (intent to levy), CP90 and LT11 (final notice of intent to levy), IRS substitute returns, and any other IRS letter or notice. **Can you help with offer in compromise or payment plans?** Yes — as a separate engagement after your report. If your report shows OIC eligibility, installment agreement qualification, or CNC status, your CPA explains each option and can handle the filing. **Do you handle Form 941 payroll tax issues?** Absolutely. Business accounts often carry Form 941 liabilities and trust fund recovery penalty (TFRP) exposure. Our report identifies all of these, including personal liability risk. **What makes KGOB different from a tax resolution mill?** KGOB is a licensed CPA firm (Kohari Gonzalez Oneyear Brown PLLC) — not a sales-driven resolution company. Your report is prepared by an actual CPA with professional standards, not a salesperson. No high-pressure tactics. No inflated promises. **Do I need to be in Charlotte, NC?** No. KGOB serves clients in all 50 states. Everything is handled remotely. **What is Form 2848 and why do I need to sign it?** Form 2848 is the IRS's official Power of Attorney form. It authorizes KGOB's CPAs to access your IRS records on your behalf. It does not give KGOB authority to make changes to your account — only to view your records and communicate with the IRS. --- ## 11.
