The IRS Settlement Program, the Offer in Compromise
An offer in compromise allows you to settle your tax debt for less than the full amount you owe. It may be a legitimate option if you can’t pay your full tax liability, or doing so creates a financial hardship.
IRS considers your unique set of facts and circumstances: including your,
