Options for settling IRS back taxes:
Offer in Compromise
The first option is an Offer in Compromise. With an offer in compromise, you can submit a reasonable offer to the IRS with a 20% payment (plus the fee), and see if they approve it. It is somewhat difficult to get approved, but if you are really in a financial hardship and want a way to lower your tax payment, it is worth a shot.

Penalty Abatement
If this is the first time you are late on your taxes, you may qualify for the IRS First Time Penalty Abatement. This will not lower the amount of taxes you owe, but it will lower or remove the penalties and interest that accrues on the amount owed. There are qualifications such as; you have to have a 3 year clear penalty history and that all your taxes are filed.

An IRS Partial Payment Installment Agreement is different from an offer in compromise, because you don’t have to pay 20% upfront. With a partial payment agreement, you send in monthly payments and when the time period of the agreement is met, the rest of the debt is forgiven. As with basically all agreements with the IRS, there are stipulations that have to be met first. Read more information on IRS Payment Plans.SPEAK WITH A TAX CONSULTANT BY CALLING (347) 535-4017!
