As a former IRS agent I accepted and rejected offers. If you need help with an offer in compromise call me for free consult. I know the system, I can help you get through the process of the offer in compromise.
Our firm has over 100 years of combined IRS experience in over 200 years and tax representation. I am a national expert in the often compromise.
We are affordable nationwide tax experts, since 1982. A plus rated. We know the system.
Offers in compromise are not as simple as people think.There is much time and effort spent by a Revenue Officer who is specifically trained to both accept and reject the OIC.There’s a tremendous amount of due diligence that takes place for an IRS agent to accept an offer in compromise.
” most offers in compromise are rejected by the Internal Revenue Service because of a pure lack of knowledge about the process, the procedures and the regulation about the program.” Michael Sullivan
Most people do not know that the offer in compromise once excepted becomes a public document that can be inspected by anybody.
The IRS offer in compromise is like an IRS audit, everything must be documented, everything must make sense, and it must be signed up off the line because the government is doing something that they do not need to do. They are reducing your tax debt.
I have reviewed hundreds upon hundreds of offers in compromise and it takes a true offer technician to get an offer in compromise through.
Simple offers in compromise with people who have little or nothing are really not difficult at all but once there is an asset base, profit and losses, assets, pensions and a host of other considerations, offers in compromise become very very complicated.
It is always best to seek a true tax professional if you have a higher debt with IRS because they’re going to give your case to a very seasoned agent who will go ahead and unpack your offer and your documentation.
FACT: The agent usually would rather reject the offers than accept the offer because of all the work that is done to get the offer approved.
If there is a reason they can reject the offer they will reject the offer. You need to put a nice tight package together with all documents and explanations. If you don’t you really have a little choice and to get it through.
Offer in Compromise Facts
Last year about 78,000 offers in compromise were filed and approximately 35,000 of those were accepted for national average of about $9500.

For those of you who have simple cases there’s nothing wrong with you attempting the offer in compromise however the taxpayer who owes more than $50,000 is caution. You’re better off paying someone to get the offer accepted and to try this on your own and exposing your financial life to the IRS.

Options for Settling/Negotiations + IRS Tax Debt to IRS
There are three basic ways that taxpayers settle their current tax situation for back taxes with the Internal Revenue Service.
There are different ways to settle IRS tax debt and there are generally three programs that the taxpayer can qualify for.
The first is a hardship or currently non-collectible program. There is good news and bad news about this program.
After IRS takes a current documented financial statement, IRS may determine you are not collectible at the current time. IRS will suspend your case for a period of 1 to 3 years and put a freeze on it.
The good news is IRS’s off your back for a couple of years and the bad news is penalties and interest still run on it. Taxpayer should also be aware that the case will come out every couple of years to be reviewed.
The second program is the installment agreement or monthly payment. After IRS takes a current financial statement they will determine how much money they expect from you on a monthly basis. IRS has certain national standards test that they use to determine if the taxpayer will be placed into a payment agreement. You can find the national standards on our site.
The third way to sell your debt is to qualify/negotiate for an offer in compromise, this is where you can settle your debt for pennies on the dollar. It’s important for taxpayers to understand that not all are eligible for the offer in compromise program.
There is a pre-qualifier tool.
I suggest everyone who wants to go the route was the direction of the offer make sure they are truly qualified before wasting time and money. As a former IRS agent I taught the offer in compromise program at the IRS. I can tell you within seconds of your settlement candidate.
