Question

Recently filed returns for past 3 tax years, I owe about $34k and a bunch of penalties. How do I approach the IRS to set up a payment plan for all 3 tax years combined and how likely are they to giver me a break on the penalties?

here's a webpage for information on setting up a payment plan with the IRS. penalties and interest will not be waived and actually continue to accrue until paid in full.

your other option is an offer in compromise, if you qualify, where your debt is settled for less than 100%
