If you believe the IRS is wrong about how much you owe, a Doubt as to Liability Offer in Compromise (OIC) may be the solution. This lesser-known but powerful IRS program allows taxpayers to settle a tax debt when there’s legitimate doubt that the assessed tax is correct.
What Is a Doubt as to Liability Offer?
A Doubt as to Liability OIC is used when the dispute is about the accuracy of the tax itself, not your ability to pay. It applies when the IRS made an error in assessing your tax due to issues such as incorrect income reporting, disallowed deductions or credits, misapplied payments, or mistakes resulting from audits or amended returns.
Unlike other offers, this option focuses purely on whether the IRS’s numbers are right.
Who Might Qualify?
You may be a good candidate if:
- The IRS assessed tax based on incorrect or incomplete information
- You have documentation proving income, deductions, or credits were miscalculated
- You were audited and the results were incorrect
- The tax debt is the result of a clear IRS or processing error
Strong evidence is critical—this is not a hardship-based program.
