Are you broke? If you need IRS tax debt relief, an Offer in Compromise might be a solution to your tax problem.
WHAT IS AN OFFER IN COMPROMISE?
An Offer in Compromise (offer) is an agreement between you (the taxpayer) and the IRS that settles a tax debt for less than the full amount owed.
From the IRS Website: “An offer in compromise allows you to settle your tax debt for less than the full amount you owe. It may be a legitimate option if you can’t pay your full tax liability, or doing so creates a financial hardship”.
The IRS will consider the following when viewing an Offer in Compromise:
- Taxpayer’s Ability to Pay
- Taxpayer’s Income
- Taxpayer’s Expenses
- Taxpayer’s Personal Asset(s)
The IRS should approve an offer in compromise when the amount offered represents the amount the IRS can expect to collect within a reasonable period of time. Not all Taxpayers are eligible to submit an Offer in Compromise.
