I sent certified letters to them *&^holes, only to be told after all that time, "this what you owe, deal with it". Forget abating the interest and penalties, that's just not acceptable. I REALLY appreciate the fact that the IRS says NOTHING for each and every letter I write, and in the end doesn't have to give one single bit of accountability for any of it. It was all just a complete waste of time. ..........

That is very true, Bastian. I'm sure A LOT of people can relate to that. Eight years ago IRS almost put me through the same thing you are. They left me with $800 a month and told my employer to disregard my exempt W-4. A few days after IRS grabbed their first $1,000 I went on medical leave for 6 weeks and lived on disability insurance, which was more than what IRS left me with. During medical leave I decided I wasn't going back to face the levy, so I quit, worked temp, and had one full time job which last about a year without IRS interference. I quit that job just in time to escape another levy.
In any event, you sound stuck in the job - ie., you cannot easily quit and get another one in your field doing contract.
I am probably going to have to face another IRS levy sometime in the near future also, but, I have plans for them. I hope my strategy works. If it does, I won't forget about you and your situation. I'll be in touch.
