The Tax Debt Help tool provides a simple, accessible way to explore payment options and identify next steps based on your situation.
The tool walks you through straightforward questions about your financial situation and tax debt. Based on your responses, the tool guides you to potential payment and resolution options available through the IRS. These options may include payment plans, temporary delay of collections, or an offer in compromise, if you qualify.
You don’t need specialized tax knowledge to use this tool, and you can explore options without providing your Social Security number, name, or address.
