IRS
Penalty Abatement IRS penalty
abatement is where the IRS agrees to waive or reduce the dollar or
eliminate value of the penalties and interest that have accrued on
the debt.
The IRS will accept a penalty abatement
petition if you had the inability to pay your tax debt due to
circumstances that were out of your control. Some examples
may include the following: 1. You were unemployed. 2.
You or a loved one experienced a serious illness or injury that
prevented you from paying the IRS. 3. Your records were
destroyed by fire or by a natural disaster that was out of your
control. 4. You were misinformed or did not receive
proper information from an IRS employee.
There are other reasons that you may be to get
your IRS penalty petition approved. A certified tax
professional will be able to guide you through the process.
