MAKE THE CONVERSATION USEFULThree questions
Three questions
worth asking.
A clear explanation is part of an informed decision. Keep notes and request written details before agreeing to work.
What work is included?
Ask who will perform the work, whether representation is included, what documents are needed, and how you will receive updates.
What are the fees and terms?
Request a written explanation of fees, payment terms, cancellation terms, and any work that would require an additional charge.
Keep federal and state questions separate.
Wyoming has no individual state income tax. The Department's divisions cover sales and use, mineral, and property tax functions. Questions about an applicable state-tax balance should go to the relevant division; this resource does not promise a general payment plan.

Understand the resource, the referral, and what to ask next.
Who answers when I call this website’s number?
Calls to (855) 494-5639 connect to Republic Tax through this website’s featured referral line. The number is separate from the business-listing address shown below. Ask the representative about the company, the person handling your inquiry, and any fees before engaging services.
Does reading this website tell me which IRS program I qualify for?
No. The guides explain general federal tax concepts. Eligibility depends on your filing compliance, balance, income, expenses, assets, and other facts. A provider should review those facts and explain the basis for any recommendation.
What information should I have ready for a first call?
Have the tax years involved, the issuing agency, the notice or letter number, whether returns were filed, and a rough description of the issue. Ask for a secure process before sharing tax returns or other sensitive documents.
Can I work with the IRS directly?
Yes. You can use official IRS resources and contact the agency directly using verified contact details. The Taxpayer Advocate Service and eligible Low Income Taxpayer Clinics may also be relevant resources. Professional representation is a choice, and its scope and fees should be clear.
