You Are Not Alone — You May Qualify for IRS Penalty Relief
The IRS adds penalties for late filing, late payment, and other issues. These penalties can quickly increase your total balance.
Common IRS penalties include:
- Failure-to-File Penalty – Generally 5% of the unpaid tax per month, up to a maximum of 25%.
- Failure-to-Pay Penalty – Generally 0.5% of the unpaid tax per month until the balance is paid.
- Accuracy-Related Penalty – Generally 20% of the underpayment when the IRS determines substantial reporting errors occurred.
You may qualify to reduce or remove these penalties if you meet certain criteria governed by Internal Revenue Code Sections 6651 and 6662, as well as IRS Internal Revenue Manual Section 20.1.1, which provides guidance regarding penalty administration and reasonable cause determinations. We will help you evaluate your situation and determine whether you qualify for:
- IRS penalty abatement
- IRS first-time penalty abatement
- Penalty abatement for reasonable cause
Reducing penalties can make it easier to move forward and resolve your tax debt.

What is IRS Penalty Abatement?
IRS penalty abatement allows you to request that the IRS reduce or remove penalties added to your tax balance. You may qualify if:
- You have a history of filing and paying on time
- You experienced circumstances outside your control
- You meet IRS requirements for first-time relief
We guide you through submitting a proper penalty abatement request and presenting your case clearly.

The IRS offers different types of penalty relief depending on your situation.
First Time Penalty Abatement
If you meet eligibility requirements, the IRS may remove penalties for a single tax period.
