Resolution Success Stories

How do Tax Problems Get Resolved? A Breakdown of Cases from 2007 to 2014

So in 2007 - I - Jay, the blogger - started tracking the resolution of all of my cases (just one staff member of watax.com) and then hopefully - use the data for potentially new customers or for the Tax Problem Resolution Blog.

Well here's the numbers in just under 7 years of tracking cases:

Resolved or not resolved - 2007 thru 2014:

75% Cases Resolved: (1187 cases)
13% Cases Partially Resolved - Client didn't follow thru. (173 cases)
12% Cases Closed due to Lack of Information or Contact. (205 cases)
Less than 1% of Cases - Closed with Refund or Misunderstanding - Sometimes Requiring Negotiation (9 cases)

Since the late summer of 2013 - I tracked the type of tax resolution clients received - (click on links for more about the procedures) 2013 to 2014:

In the last 11 months:
