Even the FTC warns about tax relief companies.
“Tax relief companies advertise help for taxpayers in distress — in exchange for an upfront fee. But the truth is that most taxpayers are unlikely to qualify for the programs these scammers advertise.”
Point 01
Most consumers don’t qualify
Tax relief firms aggressively sell programs (especially OIC) that many callers won’t actually qualify for after a thorough review.
Point 02
The IRS has free pre-qualifier tools
The IRS publishes Form 656, Form 9465, and an Offer in Compromise pre-qualifier you can use without a firm.
Point 03
First Time Abatement is automatic
FTA is granted by request and tax relief firms under-use it because it reduces their fees.
