IRS Form 668-N (Notice of Federal Tax Lien)

IRS Form 668-N, known as the Notice of Federal Tax Lien, is a document the IRS files to claim an interest in your property when you owe unpaid federal taxes. This lien serves as public notice that the government has a legal right to your assets until the debt is resolved. It can affect your credit rating and ability to secure loans. Filing this form typically indicates the IRS is taking steps to collect owed taxes, and it's essential for taxpayers to address the underlying tax issues to remove the lien.
