FAQ
State the type of penalty you want removed. Include an explanation of the events and specific facts and circumstances of your situation, and explain how these events were outside of your control. Attach documents that will prove your case.
For the failure to file or pay penalty, taxpayers can request that the IRS abate the penalties. Abatement is simply removing the penalties after they are assessed to the taxpayer.Rather, taxpayers can request an exclusion from the penalty when filing their tax return (individuals use Form 2210).
Reduce the tax. The first thing that you or an experienced tax professional should do is figure out why you owe the tax. Reduce the penalties. When you get penalties reduced or removed, you also reduce the interest that goes along with them. Set up a monthly payment plan.
The second most common reason is for reasonable cause. Reasonable cause is the IRS term for having a good excuse as to why you could not comply. Recklessness and willful blindness reasons need not apply. You must have made an attempt to comply but could not do so because of unforeseen circumstances or hardship.
Use Form 843 to claim a refund or request an abatement of certain taxes, interest, penalties, fees, and additions to tax.
In this case, you should argue for reasonable cause. Some basic elements of claiming reasonable cause for late filing or payment: Show that you attempted to meet your federal tax obligations. Explain and prove that external forces prevented you from filing/paying on time.
The IRS doesn't abate interest for reasonable cause or as first-time relief. Interest is charged by law and will continue until your account is fully paid. If any of your penalties are reduced, we will automatically reduce the related interest.
Request penalty abatement by phone A tax practitioner may call the IRS Practitioner Priority Service (PPS) line at 866.860. 4259 to request FTA if his or her client's case isn't being handled by a specific compliance unit (examination, collection, etc.).
