What Are IRS Liens

Source: http://JimMatthewsCPA.com

An IRS lien is a claim on your property that is filed at the county courthouse. An IRS lien covers real property, personal property, intellectual property, or claims to property, including mineral rights.

The IRS lien is usually one of the first tools that the IRS uses when they go to collect back taxes from someone. You will generally be notified of an IRS lien by certified letter.

The IRS has the right to place a lien against your property and in most cases the lien is already in effect by the time you get the notice. In general, it is better to avoid getting an IRS lien in the first place.
