Think You’re Just Applying for Relief?
You Could Be Locking in a Costly Mistake
The IRS reviews every Offer in Compromise with strict scrutiny and requires a $205 application fee, plus a non-refundable payment depending on your offer type, even if your offer is denied.
Many offers fail not because the taxpayer didn’t qualify, but because the offer was built on guesswork, rushed financials, or critical oversights. One misstep in how your income, assets, or expenses are presented can lead to a denial… and with it, lost money, lost time, and lost credibility with the IRS.
If you’re serious about settling your tax debt, your offer needs to be right the first time.
The Right Representation Can Be the Difference Between Approval and Rejection
Many Offers in Compromise fail because the financial information doesn’t align with how the IRS evaluates your ability to pay.
That’s often due to a little-known factor: the IRS uses “quick sale value,” not market value, when assessing your assets, meaning they estimate what they could collect fast, often at a discount.
Without understanding these standards, even a well-intentioned offer can be miscalculated and denied.
Here’s how Verni Tax Law positions your offer for approval from the start:
- Assess your financial profile to determine eligibility
- Prepare and file all the IRS forms with required documentation
- Calculate your offer using IRS-compliant methods and valuations
- Identify the correct legal basis, the collectibility, liability, or hardship
- Communicate with the IRS throughout, including appeals if necessary
- Represent you through IRS Form 2848 for direct communication with the IRS
Our goal is not just to submit; it’s to position your offer for approval the first time.

FAQs
I’m not sure if I qualify. How does the IRS decide who’s eligible for an Offer in Compromise?
Verni Tax Law evaluates your case based on the same legal standards the IRS uses: doubt as to liability, doubt as to collectibility, or effective tax administration. We’ll help you identify the right category and build your offer around it, so the IRS has a clear reason to consider reducing what you owe.
Who does Verni Tax Law typically represent in tax matters?
We work with individuals, business owners, and U.S. taxpayers with international accounts or ties. From IRS collections to offshore compliance, we represent clients facing serious tax exposure who need strategic, high-level legal and financial guidance.
Will the IRS stop collection actions while my Offer in Compromise is under review?
Yes. Once an offer is filed, the IRS typically pauses most collection efforts, including levies and garnishments. This pause remains in effect during the review, for 30 days after a rejection, and throughout any appeal. It’s one of the immediate protections an OIC filing provides.
Can an Offer in Compromise help if I also have unreported foreign accounts or tax penalties?
In some cases, yes. If your tax debt includes penalties tied to offshore disclosures like FBAR or FATCA, our experienced offer in compromise attorney can assess how those obligations impact your eligibility and how to structure your offer accordingly. Our approach connects the dots across your entire tax picture, not just what’s owed, to help position your case for approval.
What makes an Offer in Compromise succeed when so many fail?
It’s not just about filling out forms; it’s about knowing how the IRS thinks. We dig deep into your financials, apply IRS standards accurately, and present an offer backed by both legal authority and CPA-level detail. That’s what gives your case the edge it needs to succeed.
