Application Fee Questions
228
What if my OIC is not accepted, will the application fee be refunded to
me?
No. The IRS will retain the fee when:
- The taxpayer's initial OIC amount is
too low - based on the IRS evaluation of the taxpayer's financial
condition - and the taxpayer is given the opportunity to increase
it. If the taxpayer does not increase the OIC amount, or show
special circumstances, the IRS will reject the Form 656;
- The taxpayer fails to submit
additional financial documents to assist in the IRS review. If
the taxpayer fails to respond, and/or submit the requested
information, the OIC will be returned without further consideration;
or
- The taxpayer chooses to withdraw the
Form 656.
