Your Rights as a taxpayer

Did you know there is a taxpayer's bill of rights? Well there is and under your taxpayer's rights, you have the right to a fair and just tax system (1). That means that you have the right to make sure that the facts and circumstances that determine whether or not you can pay or provide information on time have to be considered by the IRS. It also means that the IRS can suspend or forgive any portion of the taxes owed at their discretion depending on your unique circumstances.

Options for Resolution of Taxes owed

But for you to have any resolution options to have a resolution to your tax problem, you must first send in your delinquent return(s). All of the delinquent returns must be filed at the time you begin negotiations with the IRS for resolution of taxes owed. Once you have filed or if you have already filed and can't/couldn't pay your taxes in full, you have essentially three options: 1) prove to the IRS that you are suffering hardship and cannot, therefore pay the debt you owe (whereby the IRS might issue a temporary delay of collection rather than cancel your debt), 2) request an installment agreement that allows you to make break up repayment of the full amount over a predetermined number of payments or 3) issue an OIC to the IRS (Offer in Compromise).

Installment Agreements

Installment agreements allow taxpayers to make payments for the all of the tax owed over an extended period of time. When the offered agreement has been accepted by both parties, the terms can include paying the full amount in one payment, short-term, partial payments (defined by the IRS as 120 days or less) or a long-term agreement (taking more than 120 days to pay). Whether you need to arrange a short-term plan, a extended-term plan or change which plan you choose, there may be fees, a penalty(ies) and interest applied until the you are no longer in debt.

Offer in Compromise

An arrangement with the IRS allowing you to pay less than you owe is called an Offer in Compromise. With very few exceptions, a determination has been made by the IRS that you do in fact have the ability to pay the full amount owed on your taxes they will not accept an Offer in Compromise.
When considering an OIC, your total income, whether or not you can pay and how much, your projected income, total assets and total expenses are taken into consideration by the IRS.

Payment Options under an Offer in Compromise

To request an Offer in Compromise you must choose between two payment options: a lump sum, or periodic payments. Under the lump sum, the IRS requires an initial payment of 20% of the total amount you are offering to pay, before they will process your request. If your OIC is subsequently accepted, the balance of the offer must then be payed within 5 months. The periodic plan also requires 20% of your offer upfront, and the balance to be payed within 6 to 24 months. Once an OIC is accepted by the IRS you must make your payments on time, as a late payment may put your Offer in Compromise in default and in jeopardy of cancellation.
