Financial Hardship

Financial Relief Contact Request

If you’re having trouble paying the taxes you owe, or if you’re not able to pay by the deadline, you may be eligible under the Internal Revenue Code for an installment agreement, an extension of time to pay, penalty waiver or abatement, or an offer in compromise. See Taxpayer Relief - Payment Options for more information.

To minimize penalties and interest, file all required federal excise tax returns, even if you cannot pay the full amount due.  For information about filing and payment deadlines, see our Taxes and Filing guidance and Operational Report requirements.  You can submit current and past due excise tax returns and operational reports electronically through Pay.gov.

If you would like to discuss your financial relief options with TTB, please provide your contact information below.  TTB will contact you within 7 business days upon receiving your request.

In order for TTB to discuss sensitive tax matters, the contact person must either have Power of Attorney or Signing Authority on file with TTB.  If you do not have Power of Attorney or Signing Authority on file with us, please attach a properly executed TTB F 5000.8 or TTB F 5100.1 in the attachment field below.
