Educational Tax Tip: The Benefit of Filing All Missing Returns Before Starting a Resolution Case

Have you filed all your required tax returns before trying to resolve your tax debt? The Internal Revenue Service generally requires taxpayers to be fully compliant with all filing obligations before approving resolution options such as installment agreements, Offers in Compromise, or hardship status. If returns are missing, the IRS may delay or deny relief and can even file a Substitute for Return on your behalf, often resulting in a higher tax assessment. Getting all prior returns properly filed helps establish accurate balances, demonstrates good-faith compliance, and opens the door to more favorable resolution options.
