Millions of people seek tax relief annually, and you are not alone. There are a variety of tax relief programs that you can explore, as the IRS gives you a chance to redeem yourself. Even for those who have outstanding tax debt, various options for payment are still available, usually tailored according to the individual’s financial situation. Here are some of them. Offer in compromise
The most popular tax relief option is arriving at a payment compromise. You can do this through the assistance of a tax professional, or by yourself, or seek a third-party tax service provider. He will negotiate with the IRS to settle your tax debt for the lowest amount allowed by law.
The offer in compromise agreement is designed as a last resort; thus, to qualify for this option, you must have exhausted all other possible means of paying your taxes. If you are qualified, you may negotiate a settled amount less than the total amount you owe to clear the tax debt. Because this is treated as a court of last resort when it comes to tax options, offer in compromise has strict qualifying conditions. You must fit a certain criterion in order to qualify for this option.
