Penalty Abatement

IRS penalties can quickly double your original tax balance — turning a manageable debt into a financial burden. But if you have a reasonable cause, the IRS may agree to remove or reduce penalties through a process called Penalty Abatement.

Our tax experts know exactly how to make your case — from gathering supporting evidence to communicating directly with the IRS on your behalf.

Understanding Penalty Abatement

Penalty abatement is a formal request to the IRS to waive penalties caused by circumstances outside your control — such as illness, natural disasters, or financial hardship.

If approved, this can save you thousands of dollars and help you regain compliance faster. The goal is simple: to give taxpayers a fair chance to recover without being buried under excessive penalties.

Common Penalties That Can Be Removed

Late Filing or Late Payment Penalties

If you’ve missed a filing or payment deadline due to financial hardship, oversight, or reasonable cause, you may qualify for full or partial penalty removal.

Payroll Tax Deposit Penalties

Businesses that failed to deposit payroll taxes on time can often reduce or remove these penalties by showing corrective action or valid reasons for delay.

Accuracy-Related Penalties

If underreported income or calculation errors were unintentional, the IRS may waive penalties once proper documentation or corrections are provided.

IRS Processing Errors or Miscommunication

Sometimes penalties occur due to IRS mistakes or delays. We review your notices and records to identify and resolve these issues quickly.

First-Time Penalty Forgiveness

If you’ve maintained good compliance history, you may qualify for the IRS’s one-time penalty abatement — rewarding consistent taxpayers with clean records.

Reasonable Cause Penalty Relief

When circumstances beyond your control — such as illness, natural disasters, or loss of records — prevented timely filing or payment, the IRS may grant relief based on reasonable cause.

Who Qualifies for Penalty Abatement

The IRS considers penalty relief when taxpayers show reasonable cause or clean compliance history. You may be eligible if:

You’ve filed and paid taxes on time in the past
A serious event (illness, death, disaster) affected your ability to comply
You received incorrect guidance from a tax professional or the IRS
You’re a first-time offender with an otherwise strong compliance record
