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.
