Offer in Compromise

If you can't afford to pay your back taxes in full, the Offer in Compromise program provides taxpayers who owe the IRS more than they could ever afford to pay, the opportunity to pay a small amount as a full and final payment. Taxpayers who attempt to file for an Offer in Compromise on their own often put themselves at risk of not qualifying for a settlement or they end up paying more than they have to.

IRS Payment Plans

If you can't pay your back taxes in full but could potentially pay them back over time, you can negotiate a reasonable monthly payment plan with the IRS. Once an IRS Payment Plan (also known as an Installment Agreement) is established, the IRS will not enforce collection action, including the levy of bank accounts or wages, as long as the taxpayer remains current with all filing and payment obligations.

Delinquent Tax Returns

To qualify for an IRS payment plan or Offer in Compromise tax settlement to resolve your back taxes, you need to file all delinquent tax returns with the IRS.

Until you have filed all legally required tax returns, the IRS will not entertain any type of tax settlement or payment plan to settle your back taxes.

Expiration of Statutes of Limitations
