Case 7: Offer In Compromise Example
Offer In Compromise Example
SITUATION:
A woman called in with about $75K to the IRS. She had been in an installment agreement with the IRS, but they were asking for more money, which she could not afford. The reason she had unpaid taxes was as a result of higher withholdings and real estate transactions that had tax implications.
INVESTIGATION PHASE:
A power of attorney was completed and contact was made by our tax professional with the IRS to discuss the account and request an immediate stay of enforcement. Master tax files were pulled, as well as tax transcripts. The client’s financials were gathered and organized into the proper forms. Bank statements, letters, correspondence, and other pertinent information were reviewed and analyzed.
It was determined that the total amount of tax debt which was being collected on was $58,923.19.
The tax professional reviewed the client’s financial position, transcripts, history, her unique situation, and recommended that the best possible option, based on the client’s financial situation, would be an Offer In Compromise of $25.00 to resolve the IRS tax debt. Based on the client’s financial standing as provided, it was recommended that the client pursue an Offer in Compromise. This was primarily because of her inability to pay the balance or make payments on the tax account.
RESOLUTION PHASE:
During the collection hold period, the client decided to proceed with the Resolution Phase of the program. The tax professional contacted the IRS to apply for the OIC.
Total amount owed: $58,923.19
Resolution: Offer In Compromise
One time Payment: $25.00
