Seriously delinquent tax debt is a cause for passport denial. Have you received a letter from the U.S. Department of State stating that your passport application has been denied because your IRS back taxes have been certified as “seriously delinquent tax debt”? If so, you are likely feeling shocked, frustrated, and even scared. This kind of letter is more than a formality—it’s a major roadblock to your freedom to travel, whether it’s for work, family, or personal emergencies.
But here’s the truth: You are not alone, and you are not without options.
I’m a tax attorney with 39 years of experience helping individuals just like you resolve complex IRS issues—including seriously delinquent tax debt under 26 U.S.C. § 7345. I understand the stress you’re facing, and I also know how to fix the problem quickly and effectively.
De-Certification of Seriously Delinquent Tax Debt Status
Once the IRS certifies your IRS back taxes as seriously delinquent tax debt, your passport application is frozen and the US Department of State will deny your passport application. But with the right legal strategy, we can work to negotiate directly with the IRS to resolve or restructure your debt. This can trigger an expedited “de-certification”—clearing the path for your passport to be processed.
