Is Penalty Abatement Possible?

Yes. It is. Taxpayers may qualify for Penalty Abatement if this is their first-time paying penalties to the IRS or state due to unpaid taxes from a reasonable cause or circumstances that were out of their control.

Such as:

  • Natural disasters

  • Inability to obtain records

  • Death, serious illness, lost a job due to poor economy, etc.

 

The IRS or the state taxing authority will accrue interest on any outstanding tax balance assess penalties for a taxpayer who fails to pay their taxes in full or on time. If not properly dealt with over a short amount of time, the total back taxes can increase dramatically.

Penalty abatement allows a taxpayer to request a first-time abatement (FTA) of certain penalties for a single tax period.

Individual taxpayers may request either a FTA or a penalty for failure to file a tax return by the filing deadline date or a penalty for late payment of tax.

Business taxpayers can request a FTA for the following penalties:

  •       Failure to Timely Deposit payroll taxes (FTD penalty)

  •       Failure to file a tax return by the filing deadline date

  •       Late payment of tax.

 

The Failure to File Penalty is 5% of the unpaid taxes for each month or part of a month that a tax return is late. The penalty won’t exceed 25% of an individual’s unpaid taxes.
