What this covers
When penalties are the real problem
Failure-to-file and failure-to-pay penalties compound quickly, and for many taxpayers penalties and interest end up being a large share of what's owed. The IRS has formal grounds for removing penalties — including first-time abatement for taxpayers with a clean recent compliance history, and reasonable-cause relief for situations like illness, natural disaster, or other circumstances beyond your control.
We review your account history to identify which grounds apply, then prepare and submit the abatement request to the IRS.
