PAYMENT PLANS TO RESOLVE NEBRASKA BACK TAXES


A good option for many individual taxpayers and businesses to resolve their Nebraska Department of Revenue tax debt is through a monthly Payment Agreement.  

Here are the basic parameters of NE-DOR Payment Agreements:
  • Individual income tax payment plans up to 24 months may be granted without submitting personal Collection Information Statements. 
  • Business payment plans up to 24 months may be granted without completing business Collection Information Statement forms. 
  • Payments MUST be made by Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT).

REDUCE YOUR NE-DOR TAX DEBT


Offer in Compromise


Nebraska is allowed to consider settling a tax liability for less than the full amount owed via an Offer in Compromise.  But, don't count on it.  Some of the reasons the state will consider an OIC are listed in REG-36-017:
 
"older unresolved accounts; corporate officer assessments; hardship cases; retired or limited income taxpayers; nonresident taxpayers; and over-assessed or canceled businesses "

Penalty Relief


The Nebraska Department of Revenue will only consider removing penalties for a few specific reasons and will not abate penalties associated with individual or corporate underpayment of estimated tax penalties.  

When submitting a Request for Abatement of Penalty, the NE-DOR requires a separate waiver request for each penalty assessed.  Use Form 21, Request for the Abatement of Penalty and provide a detailed explanation of the reasons that contributed to or caused the accrual of the tax liability.  

The NE-DOR will also look at your penalty (and abatement) history in determining whether to grant penalty relief.  You may also request the abatement of interest charges by completing and submitting Form 21A, Request for the Abatement of Interest.  

**A request for abatement of penalty will not be considered until the tax and interest have been paid in full.
