The New Innocent Spouse Provision.
The new rule for the innocent spouse relief program.
The two-year time limit no longer applies for innocent spouse requests for equitable relief. The IRS will consider a request for equitable relief if the collection statute of limitations for the tax years involved has not expired, or if the taxpayer is seeking a refund, if the refund statute of limitations has not expired.
Many taxpayers that were previously denied because of the two-year limit may now qualify for relief. Call us today to find out more 1-866-700-1040.
Frequently asked Questions about Innocent Spouse
Does the New Tax Law changes apply to all requests for innocent spouse relief?
The new tax change applies only to requests for equitable relief.
The two-year limit continues to apply to requests submitted on other grounds.
The change applies to new innocent spouse requests, based on:
1. equitable relief, requests currently under consideration by the IRS or the court, and
2. to requests that were previously disallowed by the IRS due to the two-year limit.
Do taxpayers need to do anything if they previously asked the IRS to suspend consideration of their equitable relief request while the two-year deadline was being appealed in court?
No.
If a taxpayer requested that the IRS suspend consideration of their equitable relief request while the two-year deadline was being appealed in court, the IRS will review the original request for relief and provide notification to taxpayers who had their request suspended at that time.
The taxpayer does not need to resubmit a claim for relief.
Who can or should reapply for relief?
Taxpayer(s) seeking equitable relief, who were previously denied due to the two-year limit, may now reapply by using IRS Form 8857, Request for Innocent Spouse Relief, if the collection statute of limitations for the tax years involved has not expired, or if appropriate, the refund statute of limitations has not expired.
The IRS will treat the taxpayer’s original request for equitable relief as a claim for refund for purposes of the refund statute.
Will collection activity continue if a taxpayer reapplies for relief?
When a taxpayer reapplies for relief after having a prior request denied because it was untimely, the IRS is prohibited by statute from taking any new collection action against the taxpayer for the tax years involved.
IRS collection activity taken prior to the filing of the claim would remain in place such as IRS Tax Levy, Tax Garnishment or Federal Tax Lien.
As a result, the statute provides that the collection statute of limitations for tax years will be suspended during the time the IRS is prohibited from collecting.
If the taxpayer has any questions, the taxpayer may contact the Chief Counsel attorney.
When can taxpayers be notified if they’ve been granted relief under this new provision?
The IRS will advise taxpayers within 90 days of the progress of their case. It may take some time to contact the person who was the applicant’s spouse during the tax year in question (as required by law).
There will be no new collection activity while processing these types of requests. It may also take some time to work through and make final determinations with respect to cases currently in suspense.
