Methods for Tax Debt Relief

If you leave your tax debts for too long, penalties and interests will increase exponentially, which will make it more difficult for you to pay the IRS back. The situation might even become worse if you experience a sudden financial crisis due to medical emergencies or unprecedented job loss.

Fortunately, the IRS offers various forms of tax debt relief through which our Westfield tax debt attorney can help you sort. We will help you prepare the required paperwork for the application and represent you during appointments with the IRS or the Wisconsin Department of Revenue.

Different methods for tax debt relief include:

“Currently Not Collectible” Status

If you prove to the IRS that you currently have no income nor assets that could be used to pay your tax debts, your account may be put under the CNC status. This means that the IRS will temporarily stop collecting your debts, although your penalties and interests will continue to accrue.
The IRS will also conduct regular assessments to ensure that your financial status didn’t improve past the eligibility requirement for the CNC status.

Filing for Bankruptcy

Although this will hurt your credit score, filing for bankruptcy is one way to eliminate your debts. Chapter 7 bankruptcy can wipe out part or all of your tax debts, depending on which of your debts is classified as dischargeable.

Chapter 13 bankruptcy, on the other hand, can reduce the penalty on your tax debts and enter you into a repayment plan, which could last between three to five years.

Innocent Spouse Relief

If you filed a joint tax return with your spouse or ex-spouse and later incurred some penalties, debts, or interests due to some errors, you may claim an innocent spouse relief. Our lawyers can help get your claim approved by establishing that you have no knowledge about the data error.

Separation of liability relief and equitable tax relief are two other provisions for people with trouble with joint tax returns.

Installment Plans

If you’re unable to pay your tax debt in full, you may enter into an installment agreement with the IRS. This will let you pay your debts through low monthly installments for as long as six years. This debt relief method has a high approval rate from the IRS since they can be sure that they’d get what they’re due, even if it’s not through a one-time payment.

“Offer in Compromise” Program

If your wage is just enough to survive, your assets aren’t worthy of being levied, and you are not financially capable to stick to an installment plan, the IRS may accept an offer in compromise. This means that you get to settle your debt with an amount lesser than what you owe.
However, you should offer an amount reasonable enough based on your total liability and earning potential. For some, they were able to settle their debts with less than 20% of what they owe.
