Instant Tax Solutions Answers Your Questions about Settling Tax Debt

What is an Offer In Compromise? Must a Taxpayer Prove a Hardship to Qualify?

According to Instant Tax Solutions, an Offer in Compromise, or OIC, is one way that a taxpayer may be able to lower tax-debt liability if he or she cannot legitimately consolidate payments in full to the IRS. An OIC may also be requested, says Instant Tax Solutions, if full payment would create confirmed financial hardships to the taxpayer.


Rival Tax Firm Plants Instant Tax Solutions Complaints Online?

An anonymous individual has posted fictitious Instant Tax Solutions complaints online. The stories are written as though scripted, manipulating Instant Tax Solutions complaints to make the firm appear like a scam. When the staff of ITS read the Instant Tax Solutions complaints, they immediately alerted the founders of the firm who are working to establish the source of this misinformation.

 

According to Instant Tax Solutions, the IRS takes into account individual circumstances before approving an OIC. A taxpayer’s income, monetary ability to pay the debt, total expenses, and any assets that may be liquidated are assessed. The professionals at Instant Tax Solutions offer a thorough evaluation of client financial status to assist in determining if an OIC may be a viable option. The IRS does not approve every OIC application, says Instant Tax Solutions. In fact, there are many variables which determine who is approved.


True or False – Instant Tax Solutions has complaints from clients frequently?

False! The good people of Instant Tax Solutions are proud to announce that they have only received two notices regarding complaints in the last 365 days. These Instant Tax Solutions complaints have brought an even greater issue to the forefront – Internet usage as a weapon. Since there is absolute anonymity on the web, the Instant Tax Solutions complaints have been posted with no one claiming them. Without specific contact information, the Instant Tax Solutions complaints are able to remain online with no possible resolution. This is an issue that must be addressed in the coming months, as Instant Tax Solutions grows to accommodate its loyal client base.

 

The IRS, notes Instant Tax Solutions, requires that taxpayers seek other payment options before an OIC. Generally speaking, an OIC is only approved if the taxpayer can prove they are offering their best dollar amount, says Instant Tax Solutions. The IRS will determine if the offer is the most they can expect in an equitable time period. Instant Tax Solutions helps clients familiarize themselves with the IRS Form 656-B, the Offer in Compromise Booklet, to ensure they [the client] fully understand the process.


Professional Tax Firm Instant Tax Solutions says complaints about the IRS are rising.

Taxpayers typically can’t pay the same amount of taxes as when the economy was good, reports Instant Tax Solutions. Complaints about the IRS’s collection methods are increasing at an alarming rate. There is speculation at Instant Tax Solutions that complaints are increasing, not so much because the IRS has changed their collections methods but because taxpayers are really watching their money now and feeling a greater pinch on their wallets. When money is flowing through our economy, says Instant Tax Solutions, complaints tend to be fewer and farther between.

 

The OIC Booklet must be returned to the IRS for approval, says Instant Tax Solutions. Along with the form, taxpayers must remit an application fee of $150 and a good faith payment – both non-refundable. There are also forms that must accompany the package: Form 433-A or 433-B, depending on filing status, and the completed Form 656. Instant Tax Solutions says that simply submitting the forms does not mean the OIC has been accepted.


Reports by Instant Tax Solutions say complaints citing instances of tax fraud with seniors is rising. Gauging from clients of Instant Tax Solutions, complaints are coming primarily from seniors and those in lower income brackets. According to Instant Tax Solutions, the complaints are that some other firms are taking up-front payments and failing to deliver promised results – often they are not even contacting the IRS on behalf of their clients. This is a trend that must stop, says Instant Tax Solutions. Complaints of scams and fraud weigh heavy on the minds of the staff, as many of them have helped their own older relatives and friends negotiate with the IRS and know that people cannot afford to pay money to a scheming tax firm and never see any results.

 

There are two options for initial payment on an OIC, says Instant Tax Solutions. The first allows for 20 percent of the offer being made and, upon approval, the balance funded within no more than five installments. The second option, notes Instant Tax Solutions, asks the taxpayer to remit the application fee only, while maintaining their current IRS payment agreement. If approved, reports Instant Tax Solutions, the taxpayer will make the same monthly payments but finish sooner.

Instant Tax Solutions: Back Tax Relief, Part One

According to the professionals at Instant Tax Solutions, “the IRS is becoming more cooperative than ever.” The reason for this increased willingness for compromise, according to Instant Tax Solutions, is the current economy. Instant Tax Solutions is a forty-person team of tax professionals that assist individuals with tax relief. Co-founded by Byron Pedersen and Ian Woodman, Instant Tax Solutions has a client list that spans the entire nation.

“While it is important for an individual owing back taxes to consult legal representation, there are basically two categories of programs for handling back taxes,” explains Instant Tax Solutions’ Byron Pedersen. The first category of programs, according to the Instant Tax Solutions co-founder, is to enter into an agreement settling the amount of back tax for less than owed. “If for some reason the tax debt cannot be reduced, a taxpayer can apply for special consideration,” explains Instant Tax Solutions’ Pedersen.

In this article, using the Instant Tax Solutions website as a resource, we will briefly examine the three options available if the Internal Revenue Service agrees to settle back taxes for less than what is owed. The first option, according the Instant Tax Solutions website, is the Offer in Compromise. “While this is the most popular option among taxpayers, it is also the most difficult for which to qualify,” notes Instant Tax Solutions. The OIC gives the IRS authorization to reduce the amount owed, including penalties and fees, according to Instant Tax Solutions. “The burden falls on the taxpayer applying for this option to prove that the amount owed would force them into financial hardship,” says Instant Tax Solutions, “and that it probably would never be paid in full.”

According to the Instant Tax Solutions website, the second option under the program of a settlement reduction is penalty abatement. The Instant Tax Solutions online resource explains that penalty abatement is the elimination or reduction of fees and penalties imposed by the IRS. However, according to Instant Tax Solutions, reasonable cause for failure to follow tax laws must be stated. Instant Tax Solutions further explains that some of those reasons include death or serious illness, unavoidable absence by taxpayer, or inability to determine tax amount for reasons beyond taxpayer control.

The third option under the program of settling back taxes with the IRS for less than what is owed, says Instant Tax Solutions, is a Partial Payment Installment Agreement (PPIA). According to the Instant Tax Solutions website, a PPIA is a reduction of total tax liability broken down into a monthly payment plan. In order to qualify, the taxpayer has to demonstrate that they are financially unable to pay the minimum monthly payment of the tax debt, explains Instant Tax Solutions. A negotiated agreement may be reached, for a lesser amount, allowing the taxpayer to pay their tax liability over a monthly payment plan.

Whatever the situation may be, a taxpayer owing back taxes needs proper representation, maintains Instant Tax Solutions co-founder Byron Pedersen. “Qualified representation, like that provided by the professionals at Instant Tax Solutions, knows the ‘in and outs’ of the IRS and can negotiate the best option for the taxpayer,” states Pedersen.

Instant Tax Solutions was birthed out of a vision to join expert tax relief services with an absolute commitment to integrity. With genuine concern for clients and a combined tax relief experience of over one hundred years, the professional and highly educated staff continues to remain current with tax changes.
