Before you begin the process of negotiating a payment plan with the IRS you first want to verify everything is in compliance. Part of compliance means that all of your tax returns are filed and filed properly.  Edward came in to do exactly that. But upon an investigation, Scott Allen EA found out Edward had not yet filed his 2010 tax return. He owed taxes for that year but it was for a tax return the IRS prepared for him called “substitute for return”.

Does the IRS Offer One Time Forgiveness?

Does the IRS Offer One Time Forgiveness?

IRS One Time Forgiveness

Yes, the IRS does offers one time forgiveness, also known as an offer in compromise, the IRS’s debt relief program. Have tax debt and wondering if one time forgiveness can help? If so, this post should help! Read below about programs the IRS has to help resolve your tax debt and what Tax Debt Advisors can do to help you get it done easily.

Does The IRS Offer A Tax Debt Relief Program?

The short answer is “Yes“! At any given time, there are nearly 1 million U.S taxpayers that owe the IRS. Although the IRS attempts to collect every cent that taxpayers owe the government, the reality is that they just do not have the resources for pursuing every individual person in debt. However, IRS collections remains a very stressful situation.

The IRS has tax debt relief programs, like the Fresh Start Program, available that taxpayers can take advantage of when owing back taxes. These programs not only provide a little help towards taxpayers, but it lightens the IRS’s workload. You may not be required to pay the entire amount owed, good news right?

Tax Debt Forgiveness

There are commercials that come on late at night promising to get you out of debt with tax debt forgiveness, even when thousands are owed to the IRS. Although, the reality is there is no straight debt forgiveness program.

Although, depending on the criteria of your situation you may be able to wipe your tax debt, set up an offer in compromise or payback with an installment agreement. For instance, by law the IRS is unable to collect a debt older than 10 years. Therefore, if your tax debt is from over 10 years ago, it should be forgiven, as the government is not legally able to collect the debt.

In addition, the IRS typically does not collect a debt with a low Realistic Collection Potential (RCP). An account is stated to have low RCP if the following factors are true:

  • Low income amount
  • No way to make payments
  • No assets that can be sized or liquidated, such as real estate or bank accounts

If any of the above criteria are met, you may find that your account is marked RCP. Although this is not technically a debt forgiveness, the IRS simply does not attempt to collect the debt owed, usually.

Also, the Non-Collectable Status restricts the IRS from collecting a debt, similar to the RCP. What this means is, you do not have the assets or money available to pay the debt. This program was designed with the concept of providing taxpayers enough time to earn the money or get a higher income to pay on the debt.

Can The IRS Collect After 10 Years?

No“, once a non-collectible account reaches the 10-year mark, the debt can’t be collected. In some situations non-collectible status collides with the amount of time the IRS is able to legally collect the debt. Therefore, once a Non-Collectable account reaches the 10-year mark, the debt can no longer be demanded by the IRS.

Finally, when a taxpayer files for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the IRS is unable to pursue a debt collection against the individual. Although rare, there are situations where bankruptcy allows for tax debt forgiveness.

The IRS cannot make contact with you or try to collect on a debt during a pending case. If a court rules a tax debt has to be forgiven, the IRS is no longer able to pursue future action against the past tax debt.

What Is The Fresh Start Program With The IRS?

The Fresh Start Program is a collection alternative that allows individuals and businesses, in most cases, to settle their tax debt for less than they owe. This makes it easier for back tax payers to settle their tax debt and get a fresh start. Although, the required criteria to get debt fully erased can be very time consuming and stringent. For those wanting to settle debts in a timelier manner, the IRS’ Fresh Start Program is an option.

Under the Fresh Start Program, the Partial Payment Installment Agreement option is the most used. With the PPIA you are allowed to setup an affordable payment plan for your account, which runs until the debt is fully paid or the debt account has reached the 10-year mark.

IRS Fresh Start Program Qualifications

  • Must be unemployed for 30 consecutive days
  • If you are filing a joint return, you/spouse must meet 1 of the qualifications
  • Self-employed individuals with a drop in income of 25% or more
  • Tax debt must be less than $50,000

Read more about IRS Fresh Start Qualifications

Offer In Compromise Allows To Negotiate With The IRS

Another option you may also choose to pursue an Offer in Compromise, which enables you to settle a debt. The following factors are used to determine if an account qualifies:

  • Are in compliance with IRS
  • Owe new debt
  • Cannot or have no intention to file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy
  • Never turned down for OIC before

You can use the IRS website to file for an Offer In Compromise, or have a tax professional like Tax Debt Advisors assist you with the process. You can check the IRS website to see if your qualify for OIC

The IRS acknowledges that they are unable to collect every amount of a delinquent account, with nearly a million taxpayers owing a debt. You have the potential for having your debt reduced, or possibly erased with one of the several debt relief programs available.

Installment Agreements Allow You To Set Up A Payment Plan

Most of the time the IRS will allow you to set up an installment agreement in order to pay back your tax debt over time. The terms of your payback agreement are determined by your budget to pay each month, how much you own and your previous filing history. 

Before you accept any repayment plan, make sure that you can afford to pay it on time, every time. Late payments or missing payments can get your agreement canceled and you will have to start over again. You can only get installment agreement if you own less than $50,000 in 2017 and the maximum payback period is 6 years.

Tax Debt Advisors, Inc is a tax practice specializing in filing back tax returns and settling IRS debts and have been doing it since 1977.  Scott Allen EA took over the family business from his father in 2006 and had been operating it fully ever since. Brian came in a met with Scott and reviewed his situation with him.  Brian had five years of back tax returns to prepare.  Scott reviewed with him the three step process to get a successful resolution.

First, Brain gave Scott Allen EA power of attorney to represent him before the IRS. With this he communicated with the IRS up front to analyze fully the situation at hand. Second, the five unfiled tax returns were prepared. And lastly, as you can see below a settlement was negotiated on the outstanding IRS debt. After all the tax returns were prepared Brian owed the IRS less then $25,000.  They were able to establish a payment plan with the IRS and prevent them from filing a federal tax lien. All of this work from start to finish was handled by a family owned company headed up by Scott Allen EA (Enrolled Agent).

December 2018 New Case Settlement

What can be done with an IRS debt of nearly $100,000? With an Enrolled Agent you can get it uncollectible. Yes, that is right. David owes the IRS $98,000 but does not have to make any payments on that debt. Scott Allen EA negotiated a uncollectible status. See the approved agreement below. The best part about this agreement is about half of the debt expires in less then two years. Many people don’t know IRS debts have a statute of limitations but they do.

Derek’s Mesa IRS Settlement

Derek’s Mesa IRS Settlement 2018

Just completed this month by Tax Debt Advisors was Derek’s Mesa IRS settlement. Derek owes the IRS over $70,000 in back taxes. All the tax returns were filed for compliance purposes, he just couldn’t afford to pay them. Luckily by filing the tax returns timely he saved himself from the 25% late filing penalty the IRS charges.

Derek and Scott met for a consultation to evaluate and discuss his options to settle his debt with the Internal Revenue Service. Based upon his current income and expenses it was quickly noted that for right now he was not a viable candidate for an offer in compromise. On a side note, its important to remember and realize that only about 3% of taxpayers qualify for an offer in compromise to begin with. It’s very important to find that out before submitting an Offer.  Offers are expensive to do and take a lot of time (about 12-18 months).  You will want to be sure to explore all other options first.

As you can see by clicking on the link below that Derek’s Mesa IRS settlement was an installment arrangement. Tax Debt Advisors was able to settle his debt in a low monthly payment plan of only $200 per month. The most important requirement is that he remembers to file and full pay his future tax liabilities on time so the agreement does not default.

Tax Debt Advisors Reviews: January 2018

Tax Debt Advisors Reviews

The difficult part in online reviews is that more often then not they are solicited for. Not Tax Debt Advisors Reviews. They don’t believe that after doing what they were paid to do they should “hound” the taxpayer in writing a positive review. If a taxpayer does that on their own then GREAT! They appreciate those compliments. However, the best way they believe to evaluate a company is to see past and current successes. In 41 years they have prepared thousands of tax returns and completed thousands of IRS debt settlements. Below is just one of those recent success stories. Vanessa had a phone consultation with Scott Allen EA a few months back. She has two old tax debts from 2008 and 2009 and also needed to still file her 2016 tax return.

Vanessa made the right decision and hired Scott Allen EA to represent her before the IRS. As power of attorney he stopped all collection activity, prepared the 2016 return timely and negotiated an aggressive settlement. Her IRS debt expires in just a couple of years so it was determined that the best solution to her tax problem was getting her into a currently non collectible status until those old years expire. All she needs to do now is remain current on her future tax filings. Its only January and she already has her tax appointment scheduled to prepare her 2017 taxes early.
