OUR DAUGHTER SUDDENLY RECENTLY BECAME DISABLED. HER INCOME IN 2024 WAS GOOD. NOW ITS ZERO. SHE CANNOT PAY ANY OF THE TAX DUE IN APRIL. SHOULD SHE USE 433-A?

Given your daughter's sudden change in income and inability to pay taxes, using IRS Form 433-A might be a good option. Here's a guide:

• Form 433-A Purpose: This form is used to provide the IRS with financial information to determine how an individual can satisfy an outstanding tax liability
  • Your daughter can use Form 433-A if she owes income tax and cannot pay it in full. This form is often used when applying for an Offer in Compromise (OIC) or setting up a payment plan
  • She will need to provide detailed information about her income, expenses, assets, and liabilities. Given her current zero income, this will help the IRS understand her financial hardship
• Submitting the Form:  IRS Form 433-A cannot be submitted through TurboTax. It must be mailed directly to the IRS.
