Referral payments are paid to qualified tax professionals when taxpayer referral(s) pay Community Tax for tax tax debt resolution services. Fees may be collected from taxpayers monthly if payment plans are needed, and the referral payment is paid to the qualified tax professional the following month.¹

 

How often are payments made?

Santa Barbara Tax Products Group (sbtpg) issues payments to qualified tax professionals via direct deposit once a month.

 

How to qualify for referral payments
