We recognize that some of these questions involve sensitive subjects. However, we need this information to evaluate the circumstances
of your case and properly determine whether you qualify for relief. If this form is not completed and returned your claim may be denied.
This form is divided into 4 parts.
Part 1 must be completed by everyone seeking relief.
Parts 2 and 4 must be completed by everyone seeking relief from a balance due shown on your return when filed but not
paid.
Part 3 must be completed and it is recommended that you complete Part 4 if you are seeking relief from a tax liability
that was determined as a result of an examination of the joint return.
Please answer all the questions for those parts that must be completed. If more space is needed you may attach additional
pages. Attach any documents you have that support your answers.
Part 1 – Complete this part for all requests for relief.
