Can (will) the IRS put a hold on taxpayer's account without getting a POA. There is an intent to levy and client is currently unavailable for conf call/sign POA.

I thought that sometimes the IRS will put a hold on the account even without POA.

Thank you.

They can put a hold on the account but they cannot tell you they put a hold on the account.

gotcha. I called IRS and agent said he would be breaking the law. I might call again and see if I get a different answer.

Client's problem not yours, don't make it yours.
