Tax liens and levies involving partners: will a partnership's assets be attached?
Article Abstract:
A debt incurred by the partnership demands that individual partners are accountable to settle. Assets of the partnership are subject to liens as provided in Sections 6321 and 6303. This section designs a federal tax lien that includes interest, unpaid taxes, additions to tax and other applicable penalties. All partners given notice of tax liability are bound to settle and if unable to do so, all are mutually liable to pay the taxes incurred by the partnership.

This move may result to income from tax savings. However, obtaining this benefit depends on whether the liabilities of the partnership are allocable to the party concerned; whether the liabilities are discharged or assumed by others; and, whether the liabilities are recourse.
