The Offer in Compromise program is available to taxpayers that have a tax debt so large that they could never pay it. In many cases, they go off the grid. They take jobs that pay in cash, work as subcontractors, and dont have a bank account. By not working on the books the IRS cant garnish their paycheck or levy their self-employed income. If they have a regular job they leave and find another one as soon as the IRS garnishes their paycheck. By not having a bank account the IRS cant levy their bank accounts. In many instances, they also have no assets in their name that could have a Federal Tax Lien filed against it.
