    That is hard to say. The annual interest rate will be about 8%, but the penalties could range from 25 to 200%, depending on whether they determine if there fraud and/or negligence involved in the preparation of your return.

    As a tax professional, the IRS gets very upset when taxes are not being paid as they should. As with the previous post, if there are falsified amounts on your return, it's not very likely that they'll let it go lightly. The penalties alone could be as much 50%, 75% or more...

    If they are anything like Revenue Canada, they want everything that is owed, no compromise.

    Taxes are not dischargeable under the bankruptcy code. That means that, even if you successfully file for bankruptcy, back taxes are one obligation that will not be relieved and you will still have to pay them.

    I have to disagree.

    I have spoken with a number of bankruptcy attorneys on this issue, and they HAVE successfully gotten back taxes from BOTH the IRS and state discharged via federal bankruptcy proceedings.

    The IRS will view your overall financial state to determine whether they will accept an offer in compromise.

    If Social Security pension and disability is your ONLY source of income and your other financial assets are such that they cannot be legally seized, then the IRS will be more apt to accept a lesser amount.
