Facing IRS Back Taxes? Here’s How Professional Help Can Make a Difference
Back taxes owed can be a major problem, both for individuals and businesses. Not only can the IRS impose significant penalties, but they can also put a lien on your property or even garnish your wages. If you’re facing IRS back taxes, it’s important to seek professional help. That’s where Molen & Associates comes in. We’re a Houston-based tax firm that specializes in dealing with back taxes. In this blog post, we’ll explain how we can help you resolve your IRS back tax problems.

Molen & Associates has extensive experience dealing with IRS back taxes and navigating the complexities of tax law. Our team of professionals understands how daunting it can be to communicate with the IRS, and we are dedicated to supporting you through every step of the process.
Why Choose Molen & Associates to Settle Your Debt?
We Negotiate, You Relax
Dealing with the IRS is intimidating and confusing. We act as your authorized representative. We handle all communications, ensuring you don’t say anything that could hurt your case. We know the negotiation tactics that work to get you the best possible outcome.
A Path Out of the Hole
Back taxes can feel like a bottomless pit due to interest and penalties. We analyze every option available to you—from penalty abatement to Offers in Compromise—to reduce what you owe and set up a payment plan you can actually afford.
No Judgment, Just Solutions
We understand that life happens—illness, job loss, or simple mistakes can lead to tax debt. We never judge your past; we focus entirely on your future. We offer transparent pricing to resolve your case so you can move forward without shame.
What You Can Expect
Immediate Compliance
The IRS won’t negotiate until you are “compliant.” We quickly prepare and file any unfiled tax returns to get you current. This stops the Failure-to-File penalties from growing and brings you to the negotiating table.
Stopped Collection Actions
Once we step in, aggressive collection tactics often pause. We work to put a hold on wage garnishments and bank levies while we negotiate your case, protecting your paycheck and your ability to pay your bills.
A Clear Resolution Plan
You won’t be left in limbo. We provide a specific roadmap to zero balance. Whether it is a monthly installment agreement or a settlement for less than the full amount, you will walk away with a signed, sealed resolution and a fresh start.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers to common questions about our tax preparation services.
What exactly are "back taxes," and how do they start?
Back taxes are simply taxes that were not paid in the year they were due. This can happen because of an unfiled return, an error on a filed return, or simply not having the funds to pay the balance due on April 15th. At Molen & Associates, we see this often, and we focus on identifying the “root cause”—whether it’s withholding issues or missing deductions—to ensure you don’t keep falling behind.
Is there a "statute of limitations" on how long the IRS can collect back taxes?
What happens if I just can’t afford to pay anything right now?
Should I wait until I have the money to file my old tax returns?
No! This is a common mistake. The penalty for “Failure to File” is significantly higher (10 times higher) than the penalty for “Failure to Pay.” Even if you can’t pay a dime, filing the return stops the most aggressive penalties from growing. Our team can help you file those back years immediately to minimize the damage.
Can I set up a payment plan that I can actually afford?
Will the IRS take my tax refund if I owe back taxes from previous years?
Why choose Molen & Associates to handle my back taxes?
