Tax Debt Relief? Legit info only plz...

Feb 11, 2009 1 Replies

I am looking for reliable information on tax debt relief programs, resources, etc. I have a feeling alot of these companies that advertise are scams, and that it's not quite as easy to "settle for less" as they make it seem.



I researched offers in compromise a few years ago and came up with the impression that if you had assets and were still in business you basically wouldn't qualify because you had earning potential to repay



- even at a low rate per month, or because they could lien your land or something.



Things may have changed or may be changing because of the bailout, etc. I'd like a legitimate trustworthy source of information.



Thanks for any assistance.


You have good instincts.

Current guidelines for evaluating offers are in Chapter 8 of Part 5 of the Internal Revenue Manual:
