Do You Qualify For Non-Collectable Status?

Home | Our Tax Services | Do You Qualify For Non-Collectable Status?

If you agree that you owe the IRS money for taxes but lack the financial resources to make these payments, let BC Tax help. Since the creation of BC Tax in 2001, we have helped thousands of businesses and individuals successfully overcome their tax debts. Our expert team can assist with IRS, state and local tax debt relief and debt forgiveness regardless of where you file your taxes in the United States.

What Is Non-Collectible Status or IRS CNC?

In simple terms, if you have non-collectible or currently not collectible status, the IRS has temporarily stopped trying to collect unpaid taxes from you. The IRS will only designate a taxpayer as being in non-collectible status if an individual can prove that they can no longer pay their tax debt. While non-collectible status does not eliminate or settle the debt you owe, it is an option for taxpayers who lack the funds to pay their debt and need some time to create a plan for their finances.

What Are the Qualifications Needed for Non-Collectible Status?

To receive non-collectible status or CNC from the IRS, a taxpayer must prove that their monthly income is insufficient to pay monthly living expenses. In addition to documents verifying this fact, the IRS may ask you to provide additional information about your finances to prove you are undergoing financial hardship. After you receive non-collectible status from the IRS, all attempts to collect tax debt will cease, including withholding your wages.

At BC Tax, we can help determine if you have the qualifications for currently non-collectible status. Our team can help you by:

  • Preparing and filing all prior and present tax returns.
  • Analyzing factors such as your assets and income to determine if an alternative such as a partial payment program would be more beneficial.
  • Communicate directly with the IRS to temporarily pause their efforts to collect your tax debt.
  • Filing appeals as needed.

Alternatives to Pursue If You Do Not Qualify as Currently Not Collectible

There are many strategies available to help taxpayers with tax debt relief. If you do not qualify for currently non-collectible status or the CNC tax program, you may be eligible for options such as Offer in Compromise, filing bankruptcy, installment payment plans or a partial installment payment plan.

Taking Control of Your Tax Debt Relief with the CNC Tax Program

When it comes to debt relief, it’s vital to get professional help as early as possible. Ignoring the problem may only make it worse, as the IRS can collect your tax debt for 10 years after the date your unpaid taxes are due or the date the return was filed. During this period, you may face extreme collection methods such as additional interest fees, penalties and seizure of your property and wages.

Updated Review on 7/1/2025: I have received an email and a call from Nicole who is now working really hard to get the problems mentioned below settled for my husband and myself. She is going to work directly with the IRS (which is a relief for us). I actually feel more comfortable with her than the rest so I am changing my review to a 5 star.

I stared out working with BC tax and felt like I was getting the help I need. They kept needing more and more money. I finally had things settled and was making the payments as I was suppose to. All of a sudden we get a letter that we owe 2,000.00 because we had not been making the payments. No one told me and I didn't realized that everything had to be in my husband's name. I was making the payment out of my bank account and set up the online IRS login was in my name. Then I get a email after I reached to BS Tax on May 29, 2025 about this and and finally received an email on June 30, 2025 from someone other the person helping me that we were in default and that they needed another 1,500.00 to work on our case. Sorriest customer service I have ever had.

After years of basically trying to right a wrong with the IRS including trying to get help from DFAS, The Army Headquarters, the IG of the Army and my senator I was unsuccessful in getting the help I needed after 17 years of being acknowledged as a correct concern. So, I sought professional help from BCTax . Megan Bridge was the primary source of help for me and it was superb. I am rnow straight with the IRS and feel like I learned a lot and am a VERRY satisfied customer.
