Offer in Compromise

Simply put, the Offer in Compromise is an agreement between the IRS and the taxpayer to discharge the debt in exchange for a lower percentage of the actual amount owed. Not everyone is aware that the IRS has negotiating power in select financial situations to offer a compromise that will allow the taxpayer to clear the tax liability. If the amount owed is unreasonable or unlikely to ever be paid in full, the IRS can make an Offer in Compromise for an amount that is realistic.

It is a useful tool that allows taxpayers to find some relief and be motivated to remain compliant with their taxes in the future. The IRS often collects more this way than it would through extended repayment periods and waiting. This little-known tax tool is one that is used more commonly than you would expect. Reports from 2007 indicate that repayments from Offer in Compromise result in the IRS receiving 17 cents on the dollar for taxes owed compared to 13 cents on the dollar for 2 year old tax liabilities and almost nothing for tax liabilities passing 3 years.

JaxTaxPro can guide you through the Offer in Compromise system. While deceiving simple in concept, it actually can take from 6 months to 2 years to complete, due to its complexity. A tax professional on your side can help you enjoy the benefits of this program.
