What is the difference between IRS tax relief and state tax relief?
Both address back taxes, but each has its own rules and programs. A comprehensive plan evaluates your IRS and state balances, then coordinates tax relief help across agencies so you follow the correct procedures and deadlines for each tax authority. See: State Tax Relief & Resolution
What is an Offer in Compromise, and can Optima help me qualify?
An Offer in Compromise (OIC) lets eligible taxpayers settle their tax debt for less than the full amount when paying the full balance would create financial hardship. Optima’s team reviews your finances and other important factors and if you are considered a potential candidate, we will prepare a comprehensive OIC package on your behalf. It is important to note that submitting an OIC packet does not guarantee approval of this hardship resolution option. Learn more: Offer in Compromise.
