IRS to help homeowners

The IRS announced it will try to make it easier for homeowners in financial straights to refinance or sell their homes. The plan would speed up the process where financially distressed homeowners may request the a federal tax lien be made secondary to liens by the lending institution that is refinancing or restructuring a loan.
They said the program will focus on those people who ordinarily pay their taxes in full "but because of these extraordinary times are getting behind in their tax payments"
