The IRS recently introduced a new automatic penalty relief process.
Eligible taxpayers may automatically receive relief from certain failure-to-file, failure-to-pay, and failure-to-deposit penalties for eligible 2025 tax returns, 2026 quarterly returns, and future tax periods.
Generally, eligibility requires a history of filing and paying on time. The IRS says taxpayers must have filed and paid on time for the past three years, or for the past 12 consecutive quarters when quarterly returns apply.
Not every taxpayer will qualify, so do not ignore an IRS notice. Our team can help you understand your options and determine whether additional penalty relief may be available.
