Penalty Abatement - Is Your IRS Debt Making You Sick?
Why? Because their database doesn't have detailed information about you.
It's up to you to let them know this information as soon as you are well again.
Otherwise, soon after your release from the hospital you'll be hit hard with notices, fines, interest fees and penalty fees.
Penalties, Penalties, Penalties: Penalty Abatement is when the IRS reduces the penalties from the assessed debt amount.
Don't think this excuses you from paying your taxes! This will simply remove some or all of the Penalties and the interest associate with it owed on the account.
Don't forget, according to the IRS, you are responsible for these Penalties until you can prove otherwise.
Adding up: When penalties are added to your debt, they come with their own set amount of interest.
So picture this: There's already interest that will accrue on your account.
Add that interest to the penalties and don't forget to include the interest associated with the penalties.
Your debt will skyrocket, and all because you were sick or possibly dying in the hospital! How do you apply? - Give the IRS your reason why you were unable to pay the debt or file your tax report.
