The IRS can shut down your business if you owe taxes and cannot pay. The IRS can file an action to foreclose on a lien. That action can result in closing the business and seizing all of its assets. A more common way that the IRS uses an action to foreclose on a lien is to issue a levy against the customers of the company. That levy instructs the customers to send the IRS 100% of the amount they would have sent the owner of the business. As a result, the business will have zero income and will have to shut down.
