About Alan B. Tabakman

I am an Enrolled Agent in Good Standing. I had 42 years of experience working for the Internal Revenue Service, mostly in the Field Collection Division as a Supervisory Group Manager and Field Revenue Officer.
I have a wide variety of expertise in both Federal and State collection matters. My diverse experience in negotiating resolutions for clients includes but is not limited to: installment agreements, Offer In Compromise, penalty appeals, business tax debt, Trust Fund Recovery Penalty assessments, doubt as to liability, innocent/injured spouse, hardship cases (unable to pay), Substitute For Returns.
I am able to assist where there has been enforced collection action taken by levy and/or seizure by employing such avenues as the Collection Appeal Process or the Request for Taxpayer Assistance Order.

Advised on Unpaid Taxes, Bank Levy | Jan 25, 2026
Mr. Tabakman Helped to obtain a reduction in taxes predicated on erroneous Federal and NYS tax assessments. After providing him with appropriate documentation, he contacted both agencies; he then presented the documentation and was able to get the applicable adjustments affected by both agencies. My previous tax assessments were then reduced to the correct amounts. He then negotiated reasonable payment plans with both the IRS and New York State. I found his representation to be very professional; he acted in a timely manner and continually kept me informed. He is very knowledgeable and communicative. I highly recommend him.
