Testimonials
Trust and Support for Business Owners
Payroll tax issues can be stressful because they feel immediate, personal, and high stakes.
Our goal is to make your next step clear and practical.
I review a lot of businesses. I am fair and want to provide information for people who genuinely are looking at a business to use for themselves. Regarding doing business with the Tax Hardship Center, it’s too good to be true but WOW. They helped me so much. I felt like I was out of a 10-year prison at the end. The feeling I had after they worked out all the issues I had with back tax penalties, etc., was just such a relief.
Special thanks to: Josh Bensimhon, Senior Tax Analyst, my first impression on the phone. After 2 months of searching, he was the first person that put me at ease. Jessy Zhu, Tax Preparer, for the speed and accuracy of getting the electronic form filled in and filed. Leslie Welch, Tax Preparation Associate, who clearly and precisely explained what my role was and the timeline I was on.

Honestly I was really skeptical about getting involved with a company that deals with tax debts. After going down the tax debt resolution rabbit hole I saw so many horror stories other worrisome things, but I needed help.. badly. I got a notice of intent to levy and I knew if I did nothing my life would basically be over so I took a chance and prayed for the best.
I’m glad I did because it worked out better than I ever could have expected. Jeremy helped me understand my options and made the plan as well as the fees easy to understand and straight forward.
It ended up getting resolved better than I could have hoped for and I can finally sleep again.
I’m grateful to Jeremy, Kimberly, and the rest of my team. Thank you Tax Hardship Center

If you have unresolved tax issues, this is the company work with – I had a stellar experience and my tax issues were resolved in a much shorter time period than I had anticipated. Sarah, Alex and Clay were absolutely wonderful. All calls were returned promptly and they took the time to answer all questions I had. I very much appreciate their patience.
Katherine Hess was my case manager and she was absolutely wonderful to work with-she too answered all calls promptly and stayed in close contact every step of the way and her kindness, professionalism and patience were very much appreciated. I cannot recommend this company enough. If you have unresolved tax issues this is the company to work with-they go above and beyond for their clients!

I didn’t know if Tax Hardship could help me. I hadn’t filed tax returns in years and the IRS was sending me bills so I got scared and buried my head in the sand. I knew I had to do something about it when the letters started coming more frequently and seemed to be getting more aggressive. I decided to hire Tax Hardship and they were incredible.
My tax prepares got my returns filed quickly and the resolution team was a God send! They kept me updated throughout the process and answered all my questions. I’m now in “good standing” with the IRS

Frequently asked questions
Questions People Ask before they call us
Honest answers to the most common Catch Up Bookkeeping questions.
What is included in monthly bookkeeping
Monthly bookkeeping typically includes transaction categorization, account reconciliation, and reporting such as profit and loss, based on your needs and business setup.
How often will my books be updated
Most businesses choose monthly updates, so reports stay current and tax season is easier. The right schedule depends on transaction volume and how you operate.
Do I need catch up bookkeeping first
If you are behind or your books are inconsistent, cleanup first often saves time and prevents reporting errors. If you are current, monthly bookkeeping may be enough.
Will bookkeeping help with taxes
Yes. Clean bookkeeping supports accurate tax preparation, reduces missing information, and makes it easier to plan for estimated taxes and year end filing.
What if I have multiple bank accounts and payment platforms
That is common. Bookkeeping can include reconciling multiple accounts, as long as everything is connected and documentation is available.
Can bookkeeping help if I am dealing with IRS or state tax issues
Clean records often help when you need to file returns, document income and expenses, or stabilize compliance during a tax relief process.
