What is IRS Penalty Abatement?
IRS Penalty Abatement is a process that allows taxpayers to request the removal or reduction of certain penalties imposed by the Internal Revenue Service. Penalties can accumulate for various reasons, such as late filing, late payment, or inaccuracies in tax returns. Penalty abatement provides relief by reducing or eliminating these penalties, helping you regain your financial stability.
Types of IRS Penalty Abatement
- First-Time Penalty Abatement (FTA): This type of abatement is available to taxpayers who have a clean compliance history for the past three years. FTA provides relief for failure-to-file, failure-to-pay, or failure-to-deposit penalties. It’s a one-time opportunity for qualifying individuals or businesses to request penalty relief.
- Reasonable Cause Abatement: If you can demonstrate that your failure to comply with IRS requirements was due to reasonable cause and not willful neglect, you may be eligible for Reasonable Cause Abatement. Examples of reasonable cause may include serious illness, natural disasters, or death in the family.
- Statutory Exception Abatement: Some penalties may be abated due to specific statutory exceptions. For instance, penalties related to retirement accounts may be abated if you can prove that you meet the criteria set forth in tax laws.
- Administrative Waiver and Correction: In certain situations, the IRS may grant an administrative waiver or correction if the penalty was assessed due to an IRS error or erroneous written advice provided by the IRS.
