Penalty Abatement
Late-filing, late-payment, partnership and international information-return penalties can often be removed. We request first-time abatement, reasonable-cause relief and the other relief the rules allow.
What is included
- First-time abatement requests
- Reasonable-cause statements with supporting documents
- Relief for late partnership and S corporation returns
- International information-return penalties
- Appeals of denied requests
Ask before you pay
First-time abatement is available if your record was clean for the prior three years. Penalties removed later can also be refunded, so it is worth asking even after paying.
Common questions
Can interest be removed too?
Interest on a penalty that is removed comes off with it; interest on the tax itself is generally not removable.
