It’s still important to file your taxes now, even if you know you can’t pay your tax bill in full. Once you file, you can apply for a variety of IRS debt relief options through the IRS Fresh Start program that includes Installment Agreements (IAs), Offer in Compromise (OIC), and Currently Non Collectible (CNC). If you can prove that you can’t pay your tax bill due to your financial circumstances, you may be able to delay or reduce payment.
