Client Intake

Start tax resolution cases with enough information to diagnose the problem correctly.

TaxRes CRM · Updated September 16, 2026

Quick answer: Good intake should identify the taxpayer, immediate collection risk, missing returns, notices, balances, prior representation and the documents needed for investigation.

Capture the immediate problem

Record the client’s notices, levy or lien concerns, deadlines and what triggered the request for help.

Map filing and balance history

Identify unfiled years, known balances, prior agreements, offers, bankruptcy or other events that may affect strategy.

Collect authorization and identity details

Prepare the information needed for representation or transcript access without waiting until after the investigation should have started.

Set expectations for investigation

Explain which records, transcripts and financial documents will be reviewed before recommending a resolution path.
