Monitoring

We keep watching your IRS account after your review is done.

Ongoing Monitoring starts automatically once your Initial IRS Review is complete, for $30 per month. Here's exactly what it covers, how often it checks, and how to cancel.

Coverage

What we watch for

Balance changes

Increases or decreases in what you owe, including new penalties and interest as they accrue on your account.

Filing status

When a return you were missing gets filed, or a new tax year appears on your account for the first time.

New IRS notices

We flag new notices as they appear on your account and explain in plain English what each one typically means.

Upcoming dates

Payment due dates and Collection Statute Expiration Dates (CSEDs) that are approaching, so nothing catches you off guard.

Frequency

How often we check

Ongoing Monitoring checks your IRS account on a regular basis rather than in real time — IRS systems themselves do not update instantly, so checking more frequently than the underlying data changes would not surface anything new. When a check finds a difference from the last one, your dashboard updates and the change is summarized in plain language.

Notifications

How you find out

Changes appear on your dashboard as soon as they are detected. Depending on your notification settings, you can also receive an email summary when something new shows up, so you do not need to log in on a schedule just to check.

Monitoring surfaces what changed and explains what it typically means — it does not take action on your behalf. Decisions about payment plans, disputes, or other resolutions are still yours to make, with a tax professional if you choose one.

Billing

Pricing and cancellation

Ongoing Monitoring is $30 per month, billed month-to-month with no long-term commitment. You can cancel from your dashboard at any time, and canceling does not remove access to the results of your Initial IRS Review — that dashboard remains available to you.

Key takeaways

  • Ongoing Monitoring begins automatically after your Initial IRS Review completes.
  • It is billed monthly at $30, with no fixed contract length.
  • You can cancel anytime from your dashboard settings.
  • Canceling keeps your original review results accessible.
