Taxpayer resources The Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) is an independent organization within the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) that helps taxpayers and protects taxpayers' rights. TAS can offer you help if your tax problem is causing a financial difficulty, you’ve tried and been unable to resolve your issue with the IRS, or you believe an IRS system, process, or procedure just isn't working as it should. If you qualify for TAS assistance, which is always free, TAS will do everything possible to help you. Visit www.taxpayeradvocate.irs.gov or call 877-777-4778. Low Income Taxpayer Clinics (LITCs) are independent from the IRS and TAS. LITCs represent individuals whose income is below a certain level and who need to resolve tax problems with the IRS. LITCs can represent taxpayers in audits, appeals, and tax collection disputes before the IRS and in court. In addition, LITCs can provide information about taxpayer rights and responsibilities in different languages for individuals who speak English as a second language. Services are offered for free or a small fee. For more information or to find an LITC near you, see the LITC page at www.taxpayeradvocate.irs.gov/litc or IRS Publication 4134, Low Income Taxpayer Clinic List. This publication is also available online at www.irs.gov/forms-pubs or by calling the IRS toll-free at 800-TAX-FORM (800-829-3676). WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW What is an Offer? An Offer in Compromise (offer) is an agreement between you (the taxpayer) and the IRS that settles a tax debt for less than the full amount owed. The offer program provides eligible taxpayers with a path toward paying off their tax debt. The ultimate goal is a compromise that suits the best interest of both the taxpayer and the IRS. Generally, you must make an appropriate offer based on what the IRS considers your true ability to pay. Submitting an application does not ensure that the IRS will accept your offer. It begins a process of evaluation and verification by the IRS, taking into consideration any special circumstances that may affect your ability to pay. This booklet will lead you through a series of steps to help you calculate an appropriate offer based on your assets, income, expenses, and future earning potential. The application requires you to describe your financial situation in detail, so before you begin, make sure you have the necessary information and documentation. Are You Eligible? Before your offer can be considered, you must (1) file all tax returns you are legally required to file, (2) have received a bill for at least one tax debt included on your offer, (3) make all required estimated tax payments for the current year, and (4) if you are a business owner with employees, make all required federal tax deposits for the current quarter and the two preceding quarters. Note: If it is determined you have not filed all tax returns you are legally required to file, the IRS will apply any initial payment you sent with your offer to your tax debt and return both your offer and application fee to you. You cannot appeal this decision. Bankruptcy, Open Audit or Innocent Spouse Claim If you or your business is currently in an open bankruptcy proceeding, you are not eligible to apply for an offer. Any resolution of your outstanding tax debts generally must take place within the context of your bankruptcy proceeding. If you are not sure of your bankruptcy status, contact the Centralized Insolvency Operation at 800-973-0424. Be prepared to provide your bankruptcy case number and/or Taxpayer Identification Number. Resolve any open audit or outstanding innocent spouse claim issues before you submit an offer. Can You Pay in Full? Generally, the IRS will not accept an offer if you can pay your tax debt in full through an installment agreement or equity in assets. Note: Adjustments or exclusions, which may be considered during the offer investigation, such as allowance of $1,000 to a bank balance or $3,450 against the value of a car, are only applied if you are an individual and after it is determined that you cannot pay your tax debt in full. Your Tax Refunds The IRS may keep any tax period refund, including interest, processed through the date the IRS accepts your offer by offsetting it against your tax debt, as applicable. Since your tax refund may be offset to the tax liability while the offer is pending, assistance from Taxpayer Advocate or the IRS at 800-829-1040 could be available for taxpayers (other than businesses) facing economic hardship. For example, the IRS accepts your offer on July 1, 2022, and you file your 2021 Form 1040 on April 15, 2022, showing a refund; the IRS will apply that refund to your outstanding tax debt. The refund is not considered as a payment toward your offer. Doubt as to Liability If you have a legitimate doubt that you owe part or all of the tax debt, complete and submit a Form 656-L, Offer in Compromise (Doubt as to Liability). To request a Form 656-L, visit www.IRS.gov or a local IRS office or call toll-free 800-TAXFORM (800-829-3676). Note: Do not submit both an offer under Doubt as to Liability and an offer under Doubt as to Collectibility or Effective Tax Administration at the same time. You must resolve any doubt you owe part or all of the tax debt before submitting an offer based on your ability to pay. 1 Notice of Federal Tax Lien A lien is a legal claim against all your current and future property. When you don’t pay your first bill for taxes due, a lien is created by law and attaches to your property. A Notice of Federal Tax Lien (NFTL) provides public notice to creditors. The IRS files the NFTL to establish priority of the IRS claim versus the claims of certain other creditors. The IRS may file a NFTL at any time. You may be entitled to file an appeal under the Collection Appeals Program (CAP) before this occurs or request a Collection Due Process hearing after this occurs. The IRS may be entitled to any proceeds from the sale of property subject to the lien(s). If you sell the property prior to the release of the lien, property sale proceeds over and above the offer amount may be applied to your tax liability, even if your offer has been accepted and not yet paid. Note: A Notice of Federal Tax Lien (NFTL) will not be filed on any individual shared responsibility payment under the Affordable Care Act. Trust Fund Taxes If your business owes liabilities that include trust fund taxes, the IRS may hold responsible individuals liable for the trust fund portion of the tax pursuant to applicable law. Trust fund taxes are the money withheld from an employee's wages, such as income tax, Social Security, and Medicare taxes. If the IRS accepts an offer from an employer for a portion of the trust fund tax liability, the remainder of the trust fund taxes may be collected from the responsible parties. You are not eligible for consideration of an offer unless the trust fund portion of the tax is paid, or the IRS has made the Trust Fund Recovery Penalty determination(s) on all potentially responsible individual(s). However, if you are submitting the offer as a victim of payroll service provider fraud or failure, the Trust Fund Recovery Penalty assessment discussed above is not required prior to submitting the offer. Other Important Facts Each and every taxpayer has a set of fundamental rights they should be aware of when interacting with the IRS. Explore your rights and our obligations to protect them. For more information on your rights as a taxpayer, go to http://www.irs.gov/ Taxpayer-Bill-of-Rights. Note: You have the right to appeal an offer rejection, but not the return of an offer. Penalties and interest will continue to accrue while your offer is considered by the IRS. After you submit your offer, you must continue to timely file and pay all required tax returns, estimated tax payments, and federal tax payments for yourself and any business in which you have an interest. Failure to meet your filing and payment responsibilities during consideration of your offer will result in the IRS returning your offer. If the IRS accepts your offer, you must continue to stay current with all tax filing and payment obligations through the fifth year after your offer is accepted. Note: If you have filed your tax returns but you have not received a bill for at least one tax debt included on your offer, your offer and application fee may be returned and any initial payment sent with your offer will be applied to your tax debt. To prevent the return of your offer, wait until you have received a bill for at least one tax debt and then include a copy of any tax return filed within 12 weeks of this offer submission. The IRS can't process your offer if the IRS referred your case, or cases, involving all of the liabilities identified in the offer to the Department of Justice. In addition, the IRS cannot compromise any tax liability arising from a restitution amount ordered by a court or a tax debt reduced to judgment. Furthermore, the IRS will not compromise any IRC § 965 tax liability for which an election was made under IRC § 965(i). You cannot appeal this decision. Note: Any offer containing a liability for which payment is being deferred under IRC § 965(h)(1) can only be processed for investigation if an acceleration of payment under section 965(h)(3) and the regulations thereunder has occurred and no portion of the liability to be compromised resulted from entering into a transfer agreement under section 965(h)(3). 2 The law requires the IRS to make certain information from accepted offers available for public inspection and review. Find instructions to request a public inspection file at www.IRS.gov keyword "OIC". The IRS may levy your assets up to the time the IRS official signs and acknowledges your offer as pending. In addition, the IRS may keep any proceeds received from the levy. If your assets are levied after your offer is submitted and pending evaluation, immediately contact the IRS employee whose name and phone number are listed on the levy. If you currently have an approved installment agreement, you will not be required to make your installment agreement payments while your offer is being considered. If your offer is not accepted and you have not incurred any additional tax debt, the IRS will reinstate your installment agreement. PAYING FOR YOUR OFFER Application Fee Offers require a $205 application fee. Exception: If you are an individual and meet the Low-Income Certification guidelines, there is no requirement to send any money with your offer. You are considered an individual if you are seeking compromise of a liability for which you are personally responsible, including any liability you incurred as a sole proprietor. Payment Options You must select a payment option and include the initial payment with your offer. The amount of the initial payment and subsequent payments will depend on the total amount of your offer and which of the following payment options you choose: Lump Sum Cash: This option requires 20% of the total offer amount to be paid with the offer and the remaining balance paid in 5 or fewer payments within 5 or fewer months of the date your offer is accepted. Periodic Payment: This option requires you to make the first payment with the offer and the remaining balance paid in monthly payments within 6 to 24 months, in accordance with your proposed offer terms. Note: Under the periodic payment option, you must continue to make monthly payments while the IRS is evaluating your offer. If you fail to make these payments at any time prior to receiving a final decision letter, the IRS may return your offer. You cannot appeal this decision. Total payments must equal the total offer amount. Generally, payments made on an offer will not be returned. The initial payment and monthly payments are not required if you meet the LowIncome Certification guidelines. If you qualified under the Low-Income Certification and are not required to submit payments while the offer is under consideration, your first payment will be due 30 calendar days after acceptance of the offer, unless another date is agreed to in an amended offer or addendum. If you do not have sufficient cash to pay for your offer, you may need to consider borrowing money from a bank, friends, and/or family. Other options may include borrowing against or selling other assets. If you are an individual, use the OIC Pre-Qualifier tool at IRS.gov/OICtool to assist in determining a starting point for your offer amount. Note: You may not pay your offer amount with an expected or current tax refund, money already paid, funds attached by any collection action, or anticipated benefits from a capital or net operating loss. If you are planning to use your retirement savings from an IRA or 401k plan, you may have future tax debt as a result. Contact the IRS or your tax advisor before taking this action. 3 HOW TO APPLY Application Process The application must include: • Form 656, Offer in Compromise • Completed and signed Form 433-A (OIC), Collection Information Statement for Wage Earners and Self-Employed Individuals, if applicable • Completed and signed Form 433-B (OIC), Collection Information Statement for Businesses, if applicable • $205 application fee, unless you meet Low-Income Certification Guidelines • Initial offer payment based on the payment option you choose, unless you meet Low-Income Certification Guidelines Note: Your offer(s) cannot be considered without the completed and signed Form(s) 656, 433-A (OIC), 433-B (OIC) (if applicable), and supporting documentation. If You and Your Spouse Owe Joint and Separate Tax Debts If you and your spouse have joint tax debt(s) and you or your spouse are also responsible for separate tax debt(s) (including Trust Fund Recovery Penalty), you will each need to send in a separate Form 656. You will complete one Form 656 for yourself listing all your joint and any separate tax debts and your spouse will complete one Form 656 listing all their joint tax debt(s) plus any separate tax debt (s), for a total of two Forms 656. If you and your spouse or ex-spouse have a joint tax debt and your spouse or exspouse does not want to be part of the offer, you may submit a Form 656 to compromise your responsibility for the joint tax debt. Each Form 656 will require the $205 application fee and initial payment unless you are an individual and meet the Low-Income Certification guidelines. If You Owe Individual and Business Tax Debt If you have individual and business tax debt that you wish to compromise, you will need to send in two Forms 656. Complete one Form 656 for your individual tax debts and one Form 656 for your business tax debts. Each Form 656 will require the $205 application fee and initial payment. Note: A business is defined as a corporation, partnership, or any business that is operated as other than a sole-proprietorship. You may not compromise an individual's share of a partnership debt. The partnership must submit its own offer based on the partnership's and partners' ability to pay. 4 COMPLETING THE APPLICATION PACKAGE Step 1 – Gather Your Information To calculate an offer amount, you will need to gather information about your financial situation, including cash, investments, available credit, assets, income, and debt. You will also need to gather information about your household's average gross monthly income and expenses. The household includes all those in addition to yourself who contribute money to pay expenses relating to the household such as: rent, utilities, insurance, groceries, etc. This is necessary for the IRS to accurately evaluate your offer. The IRS may also use this to determine your share of the total household income and expenses. In general, the IRS will not consider expenses for tuition for private schools, college expenses, charitable contributions, and other unsecured debt payments as part of the expense calculation. Step 2 – Fill out Form 433-A (OIC), Collection Information Statement for Wage Earners and Self-Employed Individuals Fill out Form 433-A (OIC) if you are an individual wage earner, operate or operated as a sole proprietor, or are authorized to submit an offer on behalf of the estate of a deceased individual. If you are married but living separately from your spouse then you each must submit a Form 433-A (OIC). This will assist in the calculation of an appropriate offer amount based on your assets, income, expenses, and future earning potential. You will have the opportunity to provide a written explanation of any special circumstances that affect your financial situation. Step 3 – Fill out Form 433-B (OIC), Collection Information Statement for Businesses Fill out Form 433-B (OIC) if the business is a Corporation, Partnership, or LLC. This will assist in the calculation of an appropriate offer amount based on the business assets, income, expenses, and future earning potential. If the business has assets used to produce income (for example, a tow truck used in the business for towing vehicles), the business may be allowed to exclude equity in these assets. Step 4 – Attach Required Documentation You will need to attach supporting documentation with Form(s) 433-A (OIC) and 433-B (OIC). See a list of the documents required at the end of each form. Include copies of all required attachments. Do not send original documents. Step 5 – Fill out Form 656, Offer in Compromise Fill out Form 656. The Form 656 identifies the tax years and type of tax you would like to compromise. It also identifies your offer amount and the payment terms. Your offer amount must be equal to or greater than the amount calculated in Form 433-A(OIC) or 433-B(OIC). Step 6 – Include Initial Payment and $205 Application Fee Include a personal check, cashier's check, or money order for your initial payment based on the payment option you selected (20% of the offer amount for a lump sum cash offer or the first month's payment for a periodic payment offer). Generally, initial payments will not be returned but will be applied to your tax debt if your offer is not accepted. If you choose to pay the user fee and offer payment by personal check, cashier’s check, or money order, provide a separate personal check, cashier’s check, or money order for each user fee and offer payment. Make checks or money orders in U.S. dollars and payable to the "United States Treasury." As an alternative to checks or money orders, you may pay the user fee and offer payment through the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS), which allows you to pay by direct debit from your bank account or by credit/debit cards. Reminder: If you meet the Low-Income Certification guidelines DO NOT send any money. Step 7 – Mail the Application Package Make a copy of your application package and keep it for your records. Mail the completed application package to the appropriate IRS facility. See page 29, Application Checklist, for details. Note: If you are working with an IRS employee, let them know you are sending or have sent an offer to compromise your tax debt(s). 5 IMPORTANT INFORMATION After You Mail Your Application: We will contact you after we receive and review your offer application. Promptly reply to any requests for additional information within the time frame specified. Failure to reply timely will result in the return of your offer without appeal rights. If the IRS accepts your offer, you must continue to timely file all required tax returns and timely pay all estimated tax payments and federal tax payments that become due in the future. If you fail to timely file and timely pay any tax obligations that become due within the five years after your offer acceptance your offer may be defaulted. If the IRS defaults your offer, you will be liable for the original tax debt, less payments made, and all accrued interest and penalties. An offer does not stop the accrual of interest and penalties. Please note that if your final payment is more than the agreed amount, the IRS will not return the money but will apply it to your tax debt. In addition, the IRS may default your offer if you fail to promptly pay any tax debts assessed after acceptance of your offer for any tax years prior to acceptance that were not included in your original offer. 6 Form 433-A (OIC) (April 2023) Department of the Treasury — Internal Revenue Service Collection Information Statement for Wage Earners and Self-Employed Individuals Use this form if you are ● An individual who owes income tax on a Form 1040, U.S. Individual Income Tax Return ● An individual who is personally responsible for a partnership liability (only if the partnership is submitting an offer) ● An individual who is submitting an offer on behalf of the estate of a deceased person ● An individual with a personal liability for Excise Tax ● An individual responsible for a Trust Fund Recovery Penalty ● An individual who is self-employed or has self-employment income.
