    Apr 9 2024

    In this episode of Carlos' Blend: Business, Tax and Life Lessons with Carlos Samaniego EA, we travel back to the beginning of Carlos' tax journey.

    When Carlos Samaniego met Elizabeth, he wasn’t just falling in love; he was falling into a tax pit eight years deep. Unfiled returns, mounting stress, and the IRS breathing down his neck could have spelled doom for their budding romance. Instead, it forged an unbreakable bond.

    "Love & Taxes" isn’t just a book; it’s a lifeline thrown by Elizabeth and Carlos Samaniego. A couple who didn’t just survive Carlos’s tax nightmare—they turned it into their life’s mission. Together, they co-founded Tax Debt Consultants, dedicated to rescuing couples from the jaws of tax despair.

    Celebrating 20 years of marriage, their story isn’t just inspiring—it’s instructional. Featured in a PBS documentary, their journey from tax turmoil to triumphant partnership has captivated audiences nationwide. Now, they’re here to guide you through the fiscal and emotional maze of tax resolution with wisdom only those who’ve walked through the fire can offer.

  • Tax Tsunami - IRS Collections with Tax Attorney Eric Green
    Feb 5 2024

    In this episode of Carlos' Blend: Business, Tax and Life Lessons with Carlos Samaniego EA, we chat with Tax Attorney and Founder of The Tax Rep Network, Eric Green. Eric coaches accountants, attorneys, EA's and CPA's on how to deal with individuals with tax problems.

    Today, Carlos and Eric chat about the incoming Tax Tsunami and how you can be prepared for what's to come. Following the Covid-19 outbreak of 2020, the IRS ceased pursuing many tax debt cases due to limited resources and man power. Following the recovery of markets both domestic and abroad, the IRS began onboarding thousands of IRS agents in preparation of their efforts to bring the near 3 million non-filers back into compliance. These efforts have already begun, and as Carlos and Eric will tell you, they have not forgotten about you.

    It's never too late to get back into good standing, and in this episode, Eric and Carlos will tell you how.

    Now sit back, relax and brew up your favorite blend. Slurrrrrrrp...ahhhh, enjoy!
