Remove Tax Penalties with Professional Help

When the IRS believes you’ve made a mistake with your income taxes or it discovers you haven’t filed your taxes at all, it will assess a penalty and interest charges. If you’ve received a notice indicating that you owe a penalty, do not ignore it. Ignoring tax notices can result in wage garnishment, asset seizure and other extremely undesirable consequences.

Information on First-Time Penalty Abatement

The IRS or other tax authorities can assess a penalty for a variety of reasons. These reasons include failing to file, failing to file on time without an extension and failing to pay income taxes on time. The good news is that the First Time Penalty Abatement policy can help you avoid paying this fee.

Here’s how first-time penalty abatement works. With every day that passes without you paying your penalty, the IRS will increase its amount until you pay your bill in full. But if you meet certain qualifications — such as making a payment arrangement — or you haven’t owed a penalty in the prior three years, the IRS may waive your penalty.

If you’re unsure whether or not your penalty qualifies for abatement, keep in mind that you may qualify based on Reasonable Cause.

What Is Reasonable Cause?

If you don’t qualify for the First Time Penalty Abatement program, you may get penalty relief in other ways, such as Reasonable Cause. If you have a valid reason for failing to file a return or make a tax deposit, the IRS will waive the penalty.

Common situations that qualify for Reasonable Cause include death, serious illness, natural disaster, fire and the inability to obtain necessary documentation. The IRS may also accept other reasons not listed here that prove you acted responsibly and were unable to file or pay for reasons beyond your control.

The IRS will look for proof that you were unable to meet your tax filing or payment obligations. They’ll want to know what happened and where, how events affected your ability to meet other daily responsibilities and how you handled your affairs once you realized you couldn’t meet your obligations. You should expect to provide documentation such as court records or a letter from a physician confirming incapacitation.

Reaching out to BC Tax as soon as you have a problem will help you minimize or eliminate penalties and associated interest.

Will the IRS Abate Interest Charges?

Yes and no. The IRS will not abate interest charges on your unpaid back tax balance, but it may reduce or eliminate interest associated with the penalty. It’s important to remember that the IRS will continue to accrue interest until your tax bill is paid in full.

“One of the biggest reasons I started looking for tax resolutions is because I thought I was paying way more than I should in past taxes. I spoke with one of the staff members at BC Tax, and he said that they could look over all of my documents and tell me what my options were. When I finally decided to let them do that, they were able to significantly reduce my debt, get rid of my penalties, and set up a payment plan I could keep up with.

The best choice to solve IRS issues at a reasonable fee We received many solicitations about our tax issue. BC tax, LLC was professional and... diligent in every respect. Our issue was about and unexpected recapture of depreciation on a capital gain sale we made. I was not in a cash position to pay the entire tax when due. IRS imposed a substantial penalty for not paying the tax when due. BC Tax was able to negotiate with IRS to remove the penalty. My personal attempts to deal with IRS were frustrating and with out success. Colleen's help solved our issue quickly and in the manner we had discussed. We are very appreciative of her efforts.read more
