What Are Delinquent Taxes?

Delinquent taxes are essentially taxes owed to the IRS that you have not paid. Your taxes are considered delinquent once you miss the filing and/or payment deadline. Ignoring your unpaid taxes can have severe consequences. This includes not only penalties and interest added to your original tax debt, but also more aggressive collection actions. The IRS can garnish your wages, or place a tax lien against your personal property and assets.

How to Handle a Delinquent Tax Notice

If you fail to pay your taxes when they are due, the IRS will begin the collections process. This starts with a bill for the amount that is past due. Next, the IRS will follow up with a delinquent tax notice. The notice will include the total tax due, including unpaid taxes, penalties, and any interest that has accrued since the initial bill. Until the balance is paid, interest will continue to compound daily and monthly penalties will be assessed. To avoid additional penalties and interest, it is imperative that you deal with the notice as soon as possible. Here are the most common options for addressing your delinquent tax issue.

1. File and Pay Your Taxes

   If you submit your tax return and pay your taxes within eight weeks of receiving the notice, no further action is needed.

2. Installment Agreement

   When you are unable to pay your tax balance in full, an IRS installment agreement can help. It’s basically a payment plan that is spread out over several months or years.

3. Partial Payment Plan

   In certain cases, the IRS may agree to a partial payment plan. This allows you to pay less than the full amount owed over the course of the collection period.

4. Offer in Compromise

   Through Offer in Compromise, you may settle your tax debt for less than you owe. Typically, you’ll pay the new amount in a lump sum, but the IRS may agree to periodic payments, as well.

5. Currently Not Collectible

   If you are unable to pay anything due to extreme financial hardship, the IRS may temporarily delay the collection of your tax debt by declaring you as currently not collectible. 

At Tax Defense Network, our tax professionals will work with you to find the best options for tackling your delinquent taxes. Schedule a free consultation today and take the first step in getting the IRS off your back!

Common Questions About Delinquent Taxes

Can I file an appeal to dispute my delinquent taxes?

Maybe. Appeals can be complicated, so it’s best to consult a licensed tax professional, like those at Tax Defense Network, to see if you have grounds to dispute your delinquent taxes.

What can happen if I’m on the IRS delinquent list?

If you’re on the IRS delinquent list, the following may happen:

• The IRS can file a return on your behalf called a Substitute for Return (SFR). This does not include any credits and deductions for which you may be eligible. It also enables the IRS to move forward with a debt assessment.
• Delinquent payroll taxes can elicit more severe action, such as prosecution for tax evasion or incarceration.
• If your delinquent tax bill remains unpaid, the IRS can pursue collections activities. They may issue tax liens against your personal property and assets. They can also levy your bank accounts, garnish your wages, and seize personal assets.

Can the IRS hold my tax refund to satisfy any delinquent taxes?

Yes. The IRS can legally hold any refunds until any unfiled tax returns are submitted to ensure you don’t have a tax debt. They can also use your refund to satisfy any taxes you may owe.

I have delinquent property taxes. Can you help me?

Yes. Tax Defense Network can help you with your federal and state tax issues, as well as delinquent property taxes.
