Rubio Tax Services, LLC prepares tax returns and explains your options. We are not Enrolled Agents, CPAs or attorneys and do not represent clients before the IRS. Representation in audits, collections, appeals and negotiations requires one of those credentials, and we'll help you find a qualified professional. Every situation is different, and no outcome can be guaranteed.
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.

How We Handle Offer in Compromise
Most offers are not accepted. An honest look at the IRS's own standards up front saves you time and fees on an offer that would not succeed.
