ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS
Who can apply:
If it is your first time not filing on time you may apply to this program. You must be able to demonstrate that you had no knowledge of the filing requirement for which you have been subject to penalties. You also need to complete the filing before the filing extended deadline as per the IRS guidelines.
If you do not meet these requirements, we can preapre and file the application, but we can't guarantee approval of the penalty removal application by the IRS.
IMPORTANT — READ BEFORE ORDERING
⚠️ This service does not include tax return preparation. The late tax return must be ordered separately:
- Single-Member LLC: +$399
- Multi-Member LLC: +$529
- C. Corporation: +$529
⚠️ If this is your first missed deadline and you meet all eligibility requirements above, your chances of full penalty abatement are high. Acting before receiving an IRS notice significantly increases the likelihood of approval.
⚠️ If you do not meet all eligibility requirements — for example, you have prior penalties or have missed multiple years — we can still prepare and file the abatement application, but we cannot guarantee IRS approval. We will assess your specific situation and advise you before proceeding.
THE $25,000 PENALTY — WHAT YOU ARE FACING
The IRS automatically assesses a $25,000 penalty per form per year for failure to file Form 5472 under IRC Section 6038A(d)(1). An additional $25,000 penalty applies for each 30-day period after 90 days of IRS notice — with no cap. The penalty applies regardless of company size, revenue, or whether the failure was intentional.
The only path to removing this penalty is a CPA-prepared Reasonable Cause abatement request submitted under IRS DIIRSP procedures. This is not a DIY process — an incomplete or incorrectly framed abatement request is rejected with no opportunity to resubmit.
PROCESSING TIME
