Payment Issues with an Offer in Compromise.
The Offer in Compromise application must be accompanied by two separate payments: a $205 application fee, and a down-payment of either a Lump-Sum Payment Offer payment or a Periodic Payment Offer payment. As discussed below, two exceptions are made for the payment rule: (a) offers based on “doubt as to liability”; and (b) offers made by low-income taxpayers meeting the Low-Income Certification guidelines.
The discussion below relates to Offer in Compromise applications based on “doubt as collectibility” unless noted otherwise.
