Offer in Compromise, Explained

An offer in compromise is an agreement with the IRS to settle a tax debt for less than the full balance. The IRS generally accepts an offer only when it equals the most it can reasonably collect, based on your income, expenses, assets and ability to pay. We explain how the IRS evaluates offers, walk you through its free online pre-qualifier and prepare any missing returns, since all required returns must be filed. The offer itself is prepared and submitted by you or by an Enrolled Agent, CPA or attorney.
