2. They can have you make monthly installment payments, or
3. A settlement is in order.

The IRS New Fresh Start Program
The IRS Fresh Start program makes it easier for taxpayers to pay back taxes and avoid tax liens. Even small business taxpayers may benefit from Fresh Start.
Here are three important features of the Fresh Start program:
Tax Liens.
The Fresh Start program increased the amount that taxpayers can owe before the IRS generally will file a Notice of Federal Tax Lien.
That amount is now $10,000. However, in some cases, the IRS may still file a lien notice on amounts less than $10,000.
When a taxpayer meets certain requirements and pays off their tax debt, the IRS may now withdraw a filed Notice of Federal Tax Lien.
Taxpayers must request this in writing using Form 12277, Application for Withdrawal.
Some taxpayers may qualify to have their lien notice withdrawn if they are paying their tax debt through a Direct Debit installment agreement. Taxpayers also need to request this in writing by using Form 12277.
If a taxpayer defaults on the Direct Debit Installment Agreement, the IRS may file a new Notice of Federal Tax Lien and resume collection actions.
Installment Agreements.
The Fresh Start program expanded access to streamlined installment agreements.
Now, individual taxpayers who owe up to $50,000 can pay through monthly direct debit payments for up to 72 months.
While the IRS generally will not need a financial statement, they may need some financial information from the taxpayer.
Taxpayers in need of installment agreements for tax debts more than $50,000 or longer than six years still need to provide the IRS with a financial statement.
In these cases, the IRS may ask for one of two forms: either Collection Information Statement, Form 433-A or Form 433-F.
Offers in Compromise.
An Offer in Compromise is an agreement that allows taxpayers to settle their tax debt for less than the full amount. Fresh Start expanded and streamlined the OIC program. The IRS now has more flexibility when analyzing a taxpayer’s ability to pay. This makes the offer program available to a larger group of taxpayers.
Generally, the IRS will accept an offer if it represents the most the agency can expect to collect within a reasonable period of time.
The IRS will not accept an offer if it believes that the taxpayer can pay the amount owed in full as a lump sum or through a payment agreement.
The IRS looks at several factors, including the taxpayer’s income and assets, to make a decision regarding the taxpayer’s ability to pay.
Use the Offer in Compromise Pre-Qualifier tool on our website to see if you may be eligible for an OIC. As I said before, do not give your money to any firm unless you know you are pre-qualified for an offer in compromise or tax settlement.

One such solution – Fast Track Settlements
Formerly available only to large and midsize businesses and in a geographically limited pilot program for smaller entities, the IRS’s Fast Track Settlement program is now available to smaller businesses and individuals nationwide.
Fast-track settlement allows the IRS and business or self-employed taxpayers under examination to use alternative dispute resolution procedures to resolve tax controversies more quickly, without a formal administrative appeal or litigation.
The program began on a pilot basis in 2001 for businesses over which the IRS’s Large and Mid-Size Business Division (LMSB, now the Large Business and International Division) had jurisdiction—those with more than $10 million in assets.
If you have a IRS Tax Audit this applies to you
Under SB/SE fast-track settlement, taxpayers with one or more unagreed issues in an open year or years under examination can work to resolve the issues with SB/SE and the IRS Office of Appeals, generally before the IRS issues a first notice of proposed deficiency (30-day letter).
The parties aim to settle cases within 60 days of acceptance of an application to the program.
Generally, for a case to be eligible for fast-track settlement, issues must be fully developed, the taxpayer must state a position in writing, and there must be a limited number of unagreed issues.
Fast-track settlement is not available for Collection Appeals Program cases, Collection Due Process cases, offers-in-compromise, trust-fund recovery cases, certain correspondence examination cases.
Contact us today to learn more about your individual case and your individual circumstance.
We can offer you a free tax assessment and offer you a variety of tax solutions to go ahead to affordably remedy your case.

Tax Facts about the Program
As globalization grows so do concerns about the International Tax Gap.
Taxes owed but not collected on time from a U.S. person or foreign person whose cross-border transactions are subject to U.S. taxation and the IRS are going after these easy dollars to collect.
The IRS developed a strategic plan to increase its international efforts including the creation of the International Campus Compliance Unit to enhance its efforts to expand audit coverage of tax returns with international aspects and to increase compliance among international individual taxpayers.
Before creating the CCU, the IRS did not have resources dedicated to specifically address the needs of the international individual taxpayer but now they do.
The overall objective of this review was to determine whether the benefits envisioned by establishing the CCU to improve international individual tax compliance are being achieved.
The IRS successfully planned the CCU and followed general Government guidelines and steps for implementing a new business process during the planning.
The IRS is still developing inventory selection criteria for the CCU.However, for Fiscal Years 2011 through 2013 (through March 13, 2013), the CCU conducted almost 18,000 audits and assessed approximately $36 million.
