There are many reasons you may have a penalty assessed. As a matter of fact, the IRS has the ability to assess over 140 different penalties. While we always recommend that you pay your taxes on time, many times life’s troubles prevent that from happening. When life throws you a curve ball, you can file a Penalty Abatement Request. Many circumstances will fall under reasonable cause. Some of these include:
- Death in the family
- Serious illness
- Unable to obtain records
- Incorrect advice from a tax adviser
- Fire, Tornado, Flooding, or other natural disaster
This is not a complete list because there are a multitude of reasons that could fall under reasonable cause depending on your circumstances. But the Internal Revenue Service is not going to automatically give you IRS penalty relief, you must ask!
Many taxpayers may also qualify for a First Time Penalty Abatement if this is their first time to have an overdue tax debt. If your liability spans multiple years, you will want to use this penalty relief on the largest penalty you can. Your chances of getting a Penalty Abatement approved are much higher if you hire an experienced tax professional – let us help you!
