Tax Resolution

IRS Tax Settlement

A tax settlement is any agreement with the IRS that resolves your tax debt for less than — or in a structured way different from — the full amount owed. Several legitimate IRS programs allow for settlements, each suited to different financial situations.

Our licensed tax professionals evaluate your full financial picture and match you to the right settlement program — whether that's an Offer in Compromise, a Partial Pay Installment Agreement, penalty abatement, or another approach.

Settlement Types

Your Tax Settlement Options

The IRS offers several paths to resolution. The right one depends on your income, assets, and the amount you owe:

  • ✓ Offer in Compromise — settle your debt for a lump sum less than full balance
  • ✓ Partial Pay Installment Agreement — pay a reduced amount monthly until CSED expires
  • ✓ Penalty Abatement — eliminate penalties that have been added to your balance
  • ✓ Currently Not Collectible — pause all collections based on financial hardship
  • ✓ Innocent Spouse Relief — separate your liability from a spouse's tax debt

The Process

How a Tax Settlement Works

The settlement process is methodical. Our team manages every step to maximize your result.

1

Financial Assessment

We calculate your Reasonable Collection Potential (RCP) — the IRS's estimate of what you can pay — to determine the floor for your settlement.

2

Program Selection

We identify which settlement program gives you the best outcome based on your income, expenses, assets, and total liability.

3

Documentation & Submission

We prepare all required financial forms, supporting documents, and submit your settlement request to the IRS.

4

Negotiation & Acceptance

We respond to IRS inquiries and negotiate until your settlement is accepted in writing.

Not Everyone Qualifies — But More Do Than You Think

The IRS rejects settlement applications that are incomplete or submitted by taxpayers who are not in compliance. Our team ensures your application is strong:

  • ✓ All tax returns must be filed before submitting a settlement
  • ✓ You must be current on estimated tax payments if self-employed
  • ✓ A strong financial disclosure is critical — errors get rejections
  • ✓ We track IRS response timelines and respond to every inquiry
