Methods for Tax Debt Relief
If you are having problems with your tax debt, it is important to note that the government has tax debt relief programs you can apply for to make it easier for you to handle. Defense Tax Partners can help you look into these programs and identify the best one for your financial situation.
Once the best tax debt relief program is identified, we can help you prepare the documents required for your application, get it submitted, and negotiate with the IRS to get the application approved.
Here are some of the methods available for your consideration:
“Currently Not Collectible” Status
The “currently not collectible” status is applicable to taxpayers who are unable to pay their taxes in the current deadline for a valid reason. To qualify for this status, the IRS will require you to submit all financial information and supporting documents that will show why you are unable to pay your dues on time and when you will be able to pay it.
If you are accepted into the status, the IRS will not collect your taxes for a year.
Filing for Bankruptcy
If you cannot get enough funding to pay your tax debt because of your business situation, you may file for bankruptcy to get the taxes waived or reduced. Two of the most common bankruptcy filings are for Chapter 7 and Chapter 13. For Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you may be eligible for full tax forgiveness. Meanwhile, Chapter 13 will allow you to negotiate an installment plan that will allow you to pay your tax debt, which will be recalculated to make it easier to pay.
Innocent Spouse Relief
For couples who file their taxes jointly, you may be held accountable for your spouse’s tax debt if they fail to pay it. The Innocent Spouse Relief program allows you to file the appropriate documents, which will let the IRS know that you are not aware of your spouse’s tax debt and your finances are in proper order.
Once approved, you will be exempted from the IRS’s investigations and won’t be held liable to pay your spouse’s debt.
This relief program is also recommended to separated or divorced couples who have joint tax filings prior to separation or divorce.
Installment Plans
If you want to pay your taxes but can’t pay it in full, we can negotiate directly with the IRS to have it paid in an installment plan. We can help you negotiate for a realistic and workable installment plan that will allow you to pay your taxes without leaving you without a budget for your other financial needs.
“Offer in Compromise” Program
If you are unable to pay your tax debt due to its total amount, the IRS does offer an “offer in compromise” program where you can get your tax debt reassessed and allow you to settle it for a lower amount. You will need to submit supporting documents that will allow the IRS to determine your financial situation, and if you are qualified under the program, the IRS may allow you to settle your tax obligations for a lower amount.
We can help you process the application and prepare the documents needed to qualify for this program.
To make the process smoother, our Kent tax debt attorney will need to know everything about your financial situation and check your financial records. You don’t need to worry about this information as we treat each case we handle with care and keep your files confidential.
