Currently Non-Collectible Status in Dallas-Fort Worth, TX

Many taxpayers are unable to pay their tax debt for a variety of reasons including simply not having the money to do so. Currently Non-Collectible Tax Status (or CNC) may be a potential solution for individuals facing such a situation. The IRS places the accounts of such taxpayers in CNC status if they can prove that clearing the unpaid taxes will lead to “economic hardship”. The onus of proving this to the IRS, however, is on the taxpayer, and the IRS will not go ahead and flag an account as CNC, unless requested. Enlisting the help of skilled tax attorneys, like those at the Law Offices of Nick Nemeth, can be essential in building a strong case for CNC status, ensuring that all necessary documentation is accurately presented. Their expertise can increase the likelihood of obtaining relief from immediate collection actions and provide much-needed breathing room during financial hardship.

    Reasons for Placing an Account in CNC

    While “economic hardship” is one of the primary reasons, there are certain other reasons for which the IRS may place an account in Currently Non-Collectible status. Here are some of the other reasons the IRS may place an account in CNC status:

    • Inability to track or locate the taxpayer
    • Inability to collect from taxpayers as they reside in a foreign country
    • A corporation liquidated in bankruptcy
    • Death of the taxpayer and a very low possibility of collection from their estate

    Requesting IRS Non-Collectable Status

    The IRS grants Currently Non-Collectible status only to qualified taxpayers, thus detailed financial disclosures are generally required. If you are planning to request CNC,  the tax professionals at the Law Offices of Nick Nemeth can help you determine whether you meet the criteria and help prepare the extensive list of documents generally required to support the request. If the IRS accepts the request for CNC, the agency stops trying to collect your outstanding tax debt.
