How the IRS Advocates Can Increase Your Odds of Receiving an Offer in Compromise

• Jun 29, 2023

Receiving a notice from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) can be an intimidating experience, especially if you're facing a tax debt that seems insurmountable. Fortunately, there are options available to resolve your tax issues, and one such solution is an Offer in Compromise (OIC). However, an OIC is notoriously difficult to receive. How can we help? Keep reading to learn how the IRS Advocates can significantly improve your chances of successfully obtaining an OIC from the IRS.

What Is an Offer in Compromise?

An Offer in Compromise is a program administered by the IRS that allows eligible taxpayers to settle their tax debt for less than the total amount owed. It provides a potential lifeline for individuals and businesses struggling with overwhelming tax burdens. However, the OIC process can be complex and time-consuming, requiring careful documentation and negotiation with the IRS. This is where we at the IRS Advocates can help.

What Makes an Acceptable Offer?

OICs are unique in that they require the taxpayer to submit a proposed settlement amount, which is then accepted or rejected by the IRS. This is a delicate and difficult process; you want to offer enough that the IRS is likely to accept the amount you propose, but not so much that the settlement plan is still a financial burden. Our team of experts can help assess your financial situation and determine an offer amount that we believe the IRS is likely to accept based on your circumstances.
