Meet Aidela Zirkind, EA
I founded Switchback Accounting to help individuals and businesses navigate tax problems with clarity, confidence, and experienced representation.
As an Enrolled Agent, I am federally authorized to represent taxpayers before the IRS. My work focuses heavily on tax resolution, including back taxes, unfiled returns, tax levies, installment agreements, Offers in Compromise, penalty abatement, and other IRS and state tax matters.
I believe effective tax representation starts with understanding the complete situation—not simply finding the fastest way to close a case. Every taxpayer’s circumstances are different, and I take the time to explain the available options, develop an appropriate strategy, and represent my clients throughout the resolution process.

ENROLLED AGENT & TAX REPRESENTATION
An Enrolled Agent (EA) is a tax professional federally authorized to represent taxpayers before the IRS. Enrolled Agents earn the IRS’s highest credential and have unlimited practice rights, meaning they may represent individuals and businesses before the IRS on matters including audits, collections, and appeals.
As an Enrolled Agent, Aidela can communicate with the IRS on a client’s behalf, respond to collection matters, negotiate tax resolution options, and represent taxpayers throughout the resolution process. She also assists clients with state tax matters, where representation procedures vary by taxing authority.
IRS COLLECTIONS • AUDITS • APPEALS • TAX RESOLUTION
REAL TAX RESOLUTION RESULTS
Problem: The taxpayer is in debt for more than $50,000 across two tax filings, and the Revenue Officer has already imposed a levy on the primary bank account of the individual. The taxpayer contends that errors in the initially filed returns have led to an inflated tax liability. Without a resolution in the coming weeks, the Revenue Officer intends to impose another levy on the account.
Problem: The taxpayer had not filed tax returns for 11 years. Recently, the IRS filed a Substitute-For-Return (SFR) for 2 consecutive tax years, then used those returns as a basis for determining a balance for both years of over $180,000, including penalties and interest. The taxpayer received a letter stating the results of the examination and advising to send in tax returns if there is a disagreement regarding the amounts owed; however, the deadline for a response was the day before our conversation.
Problem: The company owed over $100,000 in payroll back taxes. To further complicate matters, the owners were being paid through regular payroll, despite their S Corporation election never having been approved by the IRS. Also, the IRS claimed the business was missing 4 years of tax returns, despite them having been filed by the previous CPA. Finally, the owners also had some personal income-producing assets the IRS wanted them to sell to pay off their taxes.
