The Nader Law
Firm can help you understand your options
BEFORE you deal with the IRS.
Some of the alternatives for tax
debt help that we can explain include:
-
IRS Debt Relief
Strategy #1:
Bankruptcy
In some instances you may be able to
eliminate certain IRS debts through
Bankruptcy:
-
If your tax liability is over 3
years old (from the time that it
came due);
-
You filed your taxes in a timely
fashion (if not you must have filed
it at least 2 years before filing
for Bankruptcy);
-
You have not been assessed by
the IRS within the past 240 days,
Eliminating IRS debts through
bankruptcy requires a clear
understanding of the rules, so please
contact us for a careful review of your
situation.

Strategy #2:
Penalty Abatement
When you can’t pay your tax debt because
of circumstances beyond your control,
you may be able to make the case that
the interest and penalties that have
been added to your account are
unreasonable. While it doesn’t eliminate
your tax debt, it can remove the total
amount owed. Circumstances that may be
considered include taxpayer hardship
(serious illness, death, or natural
disaster), bad tax advice from a
professional, changes to the tax code,
or IRS mistakes.
Penalty abatement applications must
comply with IRS rules and regulations
and be very specific. Due to the
complexity of this approach, it’s
advisable to seek professional advice.
The Nader Law Firm can advise you on
whether this approach may be appropriate
for you, and if necessary in your case
provide referrals to a reputable tax
CPA.

Strategy #3: IRS
Tax Relief Settlement
This option may allow you to settle your
debt for pennies on the dollar, and will
vary based on your personal budget,
existing assets, and age (which may
affect your future earning ability). The
Nader Law Firm can advise you on whether
this approach may be appropriate for
you.
Why communicating with the IRS can be
helpful!
If you are unable to pay your tax
liability, your account can be flagged "not
currently collectible". This means that the
IRS will not pursue collection until you are
in a position to accept a Payment Plan
or an Offer in Compromise, both of
which are explained below:
-

Strategy #4:
Payment Plan
The IRS has the authority to give you
more time to pay if you can't settle
your tax debt in one payment. There is a
fee for setting up a payment plan, and
you must make regular periodic payments.

Strategy #5: Offer
In Compromise
Don’t enter into
an IRS “OFFER IN COMPROMISE” before
talking with us first!
The OIC option allows you a one-time
chance to wipe out your IRS debt for
a fraction of the actual amount
outstanding. Each case is handled
individually based on certain
guidelines. However, your circumstances
might indicate financial hardship,
doubts about whether the amount assessed
is actually due, or an inability to pay
the full amount within 5 years. Because
of the complexity of an OIC application,
it's best to seek the assistance of a
professional.
The Nader Law Firm can advise you on
using any of these options for tax debt
help, and should your case require it,
we have excellent contacts with CPA’s to assist you or negotiate with
the IRS on your behalf.
