  • Transcript Hello? Oh, there seems to be some noise in the line. Can you hear me? Okay. Hey. I am the assistant to the director here for the Federal Back Tax Alleviation Program. How's it going? How are you today? Good to hear that. My name is Mia. I am reaching out to ensure you're aware of the new tax debt alleviation program available during open enrollment. This program aims to alleviate back tax debts by classifying them as non collectible, meaning you won't need to pay them back. It's part of the new Federal Economic Recovery Program. So before you take any steps to settle any tax debt, it's important to review some information first. So would it be okay to deliver this information to you? Okay, great. Okay, so let me go ahead and patch in my assistant that will be able to get that information out to you. One moment, please. Here we go. Okay, so this special program has been recently approved. As of August 2022. The purpose of the tax dismissal program is to help those struggling with tax debt. However, there's certain requirements. To be eligible, you cannot currently be in any other tax debt consolidation or settlement program. You can not currently be in bankruptcy, and you must have a household income of under $250,000 a year. But you do have to have a monthly income of at least $2,000 a month. So I need.

Just last week, 8,265 people got Nomorobo protection!


I do do have a smart phone which I need to use Nomorobo with Comcast.net so I got call blocker which blocks 1500 numbers

It works great.I have reccomended to family and friends.

I think it has helped, but quite a few numbers (including Gallup) get through with a single ring, which is less annoying than talking to them, but very annoying, nonetheless because these callers tend to call every day. I suspect this has something to do with the fact that I use Vonage SimulRing to call my home and cell at the same time, but I'm not sure. I've learned that reporting a problem has no effect (but, heck, you're offering a free service, so ...), which I why I didn't bother.Of course, the 2014 political campaign season was still unbearable, and I don't look forward to 2016, but I think your service is a great help, and I appreciate it.

It"s helped me regain my peace of mind (and sanity) knowing something can be done at long last to stop these predators. I' m forever gratrful.

It's a great program and certainly alleviates, to a degree, some of the pains of crank calls. I';m sure you are aware the fed " do not call "system seems to be broken because it does not handle these calls as it should. Good luck and thanks for being a group concerned with spam calls.

A great service to mankind!
