Once agents have a lead, they write, telephone, or visit the individual. Agents analyze the individuals assets and liabilities to determine how to pay the tax bill. They are authorized to set up payment plans. Agents also may seize property and sell it to cover the taxes. In some cases, agents use the courts to serve warrants and notices to individuals.
Agents write reports about what they found and the actions they took.
