An Offer in Compromise (OIC) allows you to negotiate a settlement amount on your Unpaid Taxes and thus pay less than what you owe. This can be a good option for you if you know that you can’t afford to pay the full amount you owe in taxes, or if doing so will result in financial hardship.
A taxpayer installment agreement is when you agree to pay off your federal Unpaid Taxes over an extended period of time. The IRS offers four different types of installment agreements: guaranteed, streamlined, partial payment, or non-streamlined.
A tax lien means that the IRS has a legal claim against your property used as security for your Unpaid Taxes. A levy, on the other hand, is much more aggressive than a lien and it involves the actual seizure of your property. Finally, liens are public records and can have a negative impact on your credit report, whereas levies are not public records and should have no impact on your credit.

A federal tax lien typically lasts until the tax debt is fully paid or until the 10-year statute of limitations expires. You may also request a lien withdrawal under certain circumstances, such as entering into a Direct Debit Installment Agreement.
While tax liens no longer appear on consumer credit reports, they can still impact financial transactions. To remove a tax lien, you must either pay the debt, negotiate a settlement, or apply for a Lien Withdrawal under the Fresh Start Program.

You can avoid a tax lien or levy by paying your taxes in full, setting up an installment agreement, or applying for an Offer in Compromise.
