Frequently Asked Questions
What is penalty abatement?
Penalty abatement is when the IRS or your state removes some or all penalties that have been added to your tax bill. It’s possible if you can show a valid reason, such as illness, natural disaster, or honest mistake, for why you couldn’t file or pay on time.
How much does penalty abatement help cost?
Your initial 15-minute consultation is always free. We won’t discuss fees or ask for payment until we understand your case and outline how we can help. Our fee depends on the complexity of your situation, so you always know what to expect before committing.
I’m not comfortable with technology—can you still help me?
Absolutely. You do not need to be tech savvy to work with us. We’re happy to help by phone, mail, and in any way that makes sense for you. Our team guides you step by step, always on your terms.
Will this actually stop interest from building up?
Penalty abatement can remove past penalties, which also reduce future interest, because interest is charged on both tax and penalties. Even if all penalties aren't removed, any reduction helps slow the growth of your balance.
How do I know if I qualify for penalty abatement?
Every situation is unique. We review your IRS or state notices, look at what caused the late payment or filing, and determine if you meet penalty abatement criteria. We’ll be honest if you are eligible—and just as clear if you’re not.
