However, it is noteworthy that  there are three unique requirements that must be met for the IRS to even consider accepting the request for the Offer of Compromise. So, read the preliminary <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.irstaxapp.com\/offer-in-compromise-irs\/\">10 deciders for offer-in compromise offer <\/a><\/strong>and give attention to the following three tips that may help your OIC application succeed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>#1 Doubt as to Liability<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The concept of Doubt as to Liability simply means that you create a genuine doubt in the mind of the IRS (legally and factually , of course) that the tax liability shown against your name may not be correct or does not exist or is legally not very sound. This doubt as liability may compel the IRS to settle for a lower amount to encourage the taxpayer to be able to pay some amount of money. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to build a Doubt as a Liability, you must seek help from a <strong>tax attorney <\/strong>or <strong>CPAs specialising<\/strong> <strong>in tax matters.<\/strong> They can go into various issues concerning the tax debt against you and can present before IRS a good ground for Doubt as to Liabilities,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>#2 Doubt as to collectability<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p> The <em>offer in compromise calculator<\/em> can very well provide a realistic estimate and likelihood of collection of tax liability for the IRS. For this purpose, you must present before IRS factual and correct data about the income, assets and expenditures by filing Forms Form 433-A (OIC) or Form 433-B (OIC). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The IRS determines your ability to repay at all sources of income that is being reported and subtracts any expenses that it deems acceptable. If they are convinced that it is highly unlikely that the taxpayer would be able to come up with the full amount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>#3 Payment of the <\/strong>full amount presents<strong> a significant hardship<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Show and convince the IRS that paying the tax debt in full will cause severe financial hardship that affects even the basic things in carrying a normal life. IRS may start renegotiating a lower amount of money to make it less financial hardship for the taxpayer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After analyzing all of the information included on the information statement filed by you as part of the OIC application, IRS may also consider and apply the public policy that it deems worthy enough to enter into an Offer of Compromise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Offer in compromise calculator does math about the tax debt settlement amount.
