Offer In Compromise

New Oic Law

Under the new law, taxpayers submitting requests for lump-sum OICs must
include a payment equal to 20 percent of the offer amount. The payment is
nonrefundable, that is, it will not be returned if the OIC request is later
rejected. A lump-sum OIC means any offer of payments made in five or fewer
installments.
 

Taxpayers submitting requests for periodic-payment OICs must include the
first proposed installment payment with their application. A periodic payment
OIC is any offer of payments made in six or more installments. The taxpayer is
required to pay additional installments while the offer is being evaluated by
the IRS. All installment payments are nonrefundable.
 

Under the new law, taxpayers qualifying as low-income or filing an offer
based solely on doubt as to liability qualify for a waiver of the new partial
payment requirements.
 

If the IRS cannot make a determination on an OIC within two years, then the
offer will be deemed accepted. If a liability included in the offer amount is
disputed in any court proceeding, that time period is omitted from calculating
the two-year timeframe.
 

OIC requests are submitted using Form 656, Offer in Compromise. The form
provides detailed instructions for completing an offer and includes all of the
necessary financial forms. When submitting

Making an Offer in Compromise to the IRS may now involve posting 20% of the offer at the time the OIC is made. It is hard to understand how this will improve the offer in compromise program, and it is unclear what will happen to the 20% if the offer in compromise is not accepted by the IRS…

American Tax Relief

American Tax Relief claims it can help tax delinquents settle with the Internal Revenue Service for “pennies on the dollar” but two New York City lawsuits say it’s just not so.

New York City’s Department of Consumer Affairs filed a lawsuit accusing the company, American Tax Relief, of sending junk mail with exaggerated promises — and then collecting large fees but not clearing its clients’ tax debts.

Separately, a Brooklyn woman filed a lawsuit claiming that she paid $5,000 to the firm to help resolve what was a $50,000 tax debt. The woman eventually learned she didn’t qualify for the IRS settlement program the company was selling

Taxes do expire at some point and in some cases IRS does not get the money they were legally entitled to collect.

Basically, IRS has 10 years from the date they send out their first bill to collect the tax. The 10 year rule does not apply

3. An OIC delinquent tax settlement is an agreement taxes owed for less than the full amount of taxes due. Its a complex decision and a tax attorney is needed for his extensive expertise in planning, preparing, negotiating and even appealing rejections. 4. IRS Code Sec. 7122 gives the IRS power authority to settle– compromise–federal tax liabilities. Exceptional circumstances sometimes exist that allow the IRS to consider an OIC program for the taxpayer. For example, a taxpayer must demonstrate that collection of the tax would create an economic hardship or would be unfair and inequitable.

5. Very few offers were accepted in the past, because the standards were almost impossible to meet before a tax debt was legally compromised. Recent tax legislation has given new hope to taxpayers who were previously disqualified.

6. In the past the IRS really did not want to encourage OICs. Prior …
