By understanding these programs and seeking professional guidance from Tax Law Advocates, you can take steps toward eliminating your tax debt and achieving financial freedom.

Understanding Tax Debt Relief Programs:

1. Offer in Compromise (OIC):

   – The Offer in Compromise program allows taxpayers to settle their tax debt for less than the full amount owed.

   – Eligibility criteria include demonstrating inability to pay the full tax liability, doubt as to the accuracy of the tax debt, or exceptional circumstances.

   – Tax Law Advocates can assist in preparing and submitting the OIC application, negotiating with the IRS on your behalf to reach a favorable settlement.

   – Benefits include the opportunity to resolve tax debt for less than the total amount owed, potentially saving thousands of dollars.

2. Installment Agreements:

   – Installment Agreements enable taxpayers to pay off their tax debt over time through monthly installment payments.

   – Eligibility criteria typically require the taxpayer to be current on their tax filings and to owe less than $50,000 in combined individual income tax, penalties, and interest.

   – Tax Law Advocates can help negotiate reasonable installment terms with the IRS, ensuring manageable payments based on your financial situation.

   – Benefits include the ability to pay off tax debt gradually, avoiding the stress of lump-sum payments and potential collection actions.

3. Currently Not Collectible (CNC) Status:

   – Currently, Not Collectible status is granted to taxpayers experiencing financial hardship who cannot afford to pay their tax debt.

   – Eligibility criteria include demonstrating significant financial hardship, such as unemployment, disability, or severe medical expenses.

   – Tax Law Advocates can advocate for CNC status on your behalf, providing documentation and evidence to support your case.

   – Benefits include temporary relief from IRS collection activities, giving you time to improve your financial situation without facing enforcement actions.
