IRS Offer in Compromise – Settle for pennies on the dollar "?
I personally hate the sales pitch Settle for pennies on the dollar "when dealing with IRS Offer in Compromise program. The IRS is also recommended caution when you see this sentence.
Not that everything wrong. I mean, you can actually resolve back taxes with the IRS for a small fraction of what you need … if you qualify!
The results can be surprising. My company has recently completed the offer of compromise ( "OIC") applies to a customer who had$ 79,000.00 in back taxes for … (wait for it )…$ 9 Yes, you read that right. Nine dollars!
Now, a record for our company, and we have done this for years, with over 10,000 customers in our database. This means that every single customer of us settle for $ 9,? No way. But you see, how can a true story can be misleading for the transaction with the IRS. Many of these money "dollar" companies are believed to settle for $ 9 even if they had been recruited. SoWarning!
So it is possible, "Settle for pennies on the dollar?" It is certainly possible. I think it would more than likely to find opportunities, if it were up to me. If it is probable (ie, qualify for OIC), then there is the question of how many cents on the dollar, there will be billing for? You can solve for 97% of the tax liability (3% savings) and a tax business ethics can still say that they have opted for "pennies on the dollar." But I bet I did not expect to regulatefor 97 cents on the dollar. Were?
My point is that one must go through a very thorough investigation before they are unsure what options to put an offer in question, or no tax can not know the path to resolving this issue. This phase lasts about 21 to 30 days. Its purpose is, through all the records of IRS and document management, and take your data and analyze the evidence and legal real options.
Each value of lawyerhis request for a fee that is passed through this stage, it is the only way he or she really can not guarantee the exact resolution for you and your situation.
So if you're really trying to solve its fiscal situation, and want more than just "pennies on the dollar," promises of so-called "tax experts" to make sure that under Phase One of its process of investigation. If you do not know what you're talking about, or say that you do not need … RUN FAST!
Make sure yourepresentative felt when you pay good money to solve the situation IRS. In another article I will go step by step through the process of OIC, so you can see if there's something you want to tackle alone.
