Offer in Compromise

Offers in Compromise for Tax Debt Resolution

What is an Offer in Compromise?

An offer in compromise is an IRS program designed to allow qualified persons, who have a tax debt which is unpaid, to negotiate a settlement amount for less than the total amount that they owe the IRS. The purpose is to come up with a solution in which the taxpayer can be relieved of their debt to the IRS while the government collects the taxes they are able to obtain.

The offer in compromise program is complex as to its requirements and how it is administered. An incorrectly prepared offer will be turned down. It is vital that you use a qualified Palm Beach County tax lawyer to assist you in order to be successful with this program.

Three specific points that the IRS will review in order to establish eligibility are:

  • Doubt as to Liability - The firm has to be able to show the IRS that there is valid reason to believe that your assessed tax liability is incorrect
  • Doubt as to Collectability - It must be clearly illustrated that it is highly unlikely the IRS will ever be able to collect the full amount they currently say you owe
  • Effective Tax Administration - On this point, you are not contesting that you owe the money. You are showing that there are special or extenuating circumstances that would make the collection of the full amount an economic hardship or that it would be unfair to collect the full amount owed
