I trust you all had a “successful” Fourth of July celebration. As promised I spent the day cleaning the office, and also put in some time getting the various “to do” files up to date. Now on to the next room!

An Offer in Compromise is what is being advertised in the tv ads that promise you can settle your tax debt for “pennies on the dollar”. If you think an Offer in Compromise may be appropriate for your situation DO NOT pay attention to these erroneous tv ads – and DO NOT contact the companies that make such a promise. Trust me - you will not be let off the hook for “pennies on the dollar”. If you want to know more about an Offer in Compromise contact your tax professional.
