• Unfiled Tax Returns – Interim Guidance from IRSQuestion: Taxpayers owe for years for which SFR’s established a tax liability. The taxpayer has not filed all required tax returns solely for years covered by the SFRs. All other years have been filed. Thus, Taxpayer’s offer will be returned? Even if the SFRs are from years ago?
Answer: A Substitute for Return (SFR) assessment will be considered compliant for the corresponding tax period. per 6/21/17 Email from IRS official

What Is An Offer?Per IRS Instructions
(See OIC instructions, page 108 of materials)
"An Offer in Compromise (offer) is an agreement between you (the taxpayer) and the IRS that settles a tax debt for less than the full amount owed. The offer program provides eligible taxpayers with a path toward paying off their tax debt and getting a fresh start. The ultimate goal is a compromise that suits the best interest of both the taxpayer and the IRS. To be considered, generally you must make an appropriate offer based on what the IRS considers your true ability to pay."
The IRS defines “true ability to pay” with a term called
Reasonable Collection Potential
![Page 12: PowerPt OIC 2020 10 29 SJWT · 2020. 12. 20. · Microsoft PowerPoint - PowerPt_OIC 2020 10 29 SJWT.pptm 10/29/2020 8:36:36 AM](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022071301/60a12a305cdb0263a86c7800/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

TODAY’S GOAL
• To understand the basics in arriving at Reasonable Collection Potential
• To provide some “nuggets” of information not generally known in determining RCP
• The Future Income Component of RCP is frequently used to determine acceptable installment agreements or CNC (Currently Not Collectible Status)
• In 50 minutes, we cannot possibly cover it all!

Reasonable Collection Potential(see article on page 6 of Materials)
• An offer will be accepted by the IRS if the amount offered equals or exceeds the taxpayer’s Reasonable Collection Potential (RCP), defined by the IRS as the total of the taxpayer’s realizable value in real and personal assets, and his/her future net income.
• Realizable value is, essentially, gross value less secured debt. For example, unsecured credit card debt is usually not considered. In addition, the IRS will discount valuations 20% based on “Quick Sale Value.”
• Future net income is based on a forecast of the excess of gross income over allowable expenses – food, clothing, housing, transportation, medical and taxes – over a minimum of 48 12 months.

IRM 5.8.5.4.1 (09-30-2013) Net Realizable Equity(4) When a particular asset has been sold (or a sale is pending) in order to fund the offer, no reduction for QSV should be made. Instead, verify the actual sale price, ensuring that the sale is an arms length transaction, and use that amount as the QSV. A reduction may be made for the costs of the sale and the expected current year tax consequence to arrive at the NRE of the asset. Consider reviewing a lender statement that estimates proposed closing costs.

May 21, 2012 OIC Rules
• The equity in income producing assets will no longer be added to the RCP of viable ongoing businesses unless such assets are not critical to the business operations IRM 5.8.5.15 (03-23-2018). In some situations, this is a material change which eliminates what many believed to be a double-counting of assets.

May 21, 2012 OIC RulesExample #2: Dorothy & Mo Offer
• Result too good to be true?
• IRS may reject, using “not in the best interests of the government standard.”
• Offer will be rejected if full payment can be made within the remaining time of the statute.
Note: If statute is 100 months, government will receive $400,000 over that time. Why would they accept $53,000 if only $300,000 is due? 78
