Use this tool to see if you may be eligible for an offer in compromise (OIC). If you have an individual online account, you can now use that to see if you potentially qualify for an OIC and file an OIC. Enter your financial information and tax filing status to calculate a preliminary offer amount. We make our final decision based on your completed OIC application and our associated investigation. This tool should only be used as a guide. Although it may show you can full pay your liability, you may still file an offer in compromise and discuss your individual financial situation with the IRS.


If you are a partnership, corporation, or reside in a U.S. Territory, foreign country, or are military personnel using an APO or FPO address the OIC Pre-Qualifier is not applicable for your situation. Please proceed to the application in the Offer in Compromise Booklet .
