What this letter means
Letter 1058 is the IRS’s final notice before they take your money or property to pay a tax debt. Its full name is “Final Notice of Intent to Levy and Notice of Your Right to a Hearing.” A levy means the IRS takes your money or property to pay what they say you owe.
That can mean part of your paycheck, money in your bank account, or your state tax refund. For a business, it can mean money customers owe you. It can also mean a car or other property.
Letter 1058 often comes from an IRS officer assigned to your case. It may come by certified mail, or the officer may hand it to you. The IRS sends the same kind of notice as an LT11. They mean the same thing.
How urgent is it?
Very. You have 30 days from the date on the letter to ask for a Collection Due Process hearing. That’s an appeal with a separate IRS office that didn’t make the decision to collect. You ask on Form 12153.
If you ask in time, the IRS generally has to hold off while your appeal is open. At the hearing, you can ask for a payment plan, a pause, or a settlement. Sometimes you can also argue the bill itself.
If you miss the deadline, the IRS can start taking money. An officer can act fast.
What we do
We protect the deadline first. We file your hearing request on time and keep proof that it was sent.
We deal with the officer. Once you hire us, the officer talks to us, not you. We push for time to get your records in order.
We check the amount, then fight for the best result. If the bill is wrong, we work to fix it. Then we make the case for what fits your real numbers: a payment plan you can keep, a pause in collection, or settling for less if you qualify.
