Re: ADMINISTRATIVE CLAIM FOR UNAUTHORIZED COLLECTION ACTIONS UNDER IRS § 7433 & 26 CFR § 301.7433-1
Dear
Compliance Technical Support Manager:
Your
office refilled many notices of federal tax liens against me on September 1st,
26 & 27, 2005. You did not send me a CDPH notice when you refilled the
NFTL.
IRC 6320 (a)(2) requires the IRS to notify the
taxpayer in five business days of filing the notice of federal tax lien.
Federal
law requires that I receive a notice of CDPH and a copy of the lien with in
five days of filing. You office did not do that which means the tax liens are
invalid.
This is an
administrative claim for civil damages for Unauthorized Collection Actions
under IRC §7433 and CFR §301.7433-1.
\Under said law in
section (d) (1) and said regulation in section (d) I am required to exhaust my
administrative remedies. This letter is to satisfy that purpose. I intend to
file a civil action in US District Court under IRC 7433 for the wrongful and
illegal collections actions against me. Under CFR 301.7433 (e) (2), I must
inform you of the following:
1. My name and
address are above. My telephone number and identification number are below. The
best time to call me is during normal business hours.
2. The grounds of
my claim for damages include:
A. IRS placed
Notices of Liens on my home in the amount of over $200,000 many years ago. Then
the IRS re-filed these liens several years ago. We did not find this out until recently.
We had no notice from anyone.
B.
IRC 6320 (a)(2) requires the IRS to notify the
taxpayer in five business days of filing the notice of federal tax lien and
also the re-filing.
C.
Further the IRS also failed to send me a Notice of Collection Due Process
Hearing for the numerous re-filing of NFTL.
D.
Since the IRS did not notify me of the re-filing of the lien or send me my CDPH;
the re-file liens are invalid and therefore should be removed.
3. The injuries for
this claim include:
A.
Severe and unnecessary hardship for our family and me. We were denied the sale
of our home.
B. This robbery
of our home caused anxiety, emotional distress, mental anguish, severe health
problems, etc. for me, my wife, daughter, etc. My wife will never be the same
person.
C. Since we did not
know about the re-filing, we were unable to make arrangements with the IRS or
to submit an offer in compromise. Now the DOJ has filed suit against us on
these NFTL’s and we do not have time to pay the IRS. If we had known about the
re-filing then we would have had time to meet the requirement of the tax
collectors.
4. The dollar
amount of the claim includes:
A.
$50,000 for the invalid liens remaining in effect on my home,
which prevents any sale and borrowing.
Now we can not borrow any money to pay the IRS.
B. $40,000 for mental anguish emotional distress
anxiety, etc.
C.
$100,000 minimum statutory damages.
In conclusion, this
is my claim for damages for wrongful actions of IRS employees. Under federal
law, I am entitled to compensation.
Yours:
Robert
