😩 Hit with an unexpected IRS penalty?

It’s frustrating—and common. The IRS charges penalties for everything from late filing and late payment to underpayment and payroll mistakes.

But here’s what many business owners don’t know:
Penalties can be removed. And in many cases, they should be.

At Nirvana Business Consulting, we help you request Penalty Abatement from the IRS—whether it’s your first time or part of a larger tax issue.

  • 📌 What Is Penalty Abatement?

    Penalty Abatement is a formal request asking the IRS to reduce or remove penalties (and often the related interest) that were charged to your account.

    There are three main types:

    First-Time Abatement: For eligible taxpayers with a clean history

    Reasonable Cause: Illness, disaster, bookkeeping issues, or other valid reasons

    Administrative Waivers: For IRS processing errors or timing issues

  • 💸 What Can You Get Removed?

    You may qualify to have penalties removed for:

    ✔️ Late filing
    ✔️ Late payment
    ✔️ Failure to deposit payroll taxes
    ✔️ Underpayment
    ✔️ Estimated tax penalties
    ✔️ Failure to file certain information returns

    We assess your eligibility and build a strong case based on your unique facts, records, and business context.

  • 🛠️ What We Do for You
