Free Check: Are You Eligible
for a Penalty Refund?

Two federal courts have interpreted IRC §7508A(d) as suspending certain IRS penalties during 2020 through 2023. The legal theory is being tested and may be appealed. We review your transcripts at no charge to determine whether to file a protective claim preserving your rights before the July 10, 2026 deadline.

Important — please read. Submitting this form does not create an attorney-client relationship. Our system will analyze your transcripts and show you whether you appear to qualify. Our fee is 25% of any amount actually recovered from the IRS. If there is no recovery, you owe nothing.

Legal uncertainty: The legal theory underlying these claims rests on Kwong v. United States (Nov. 2025), which is not yet final and is expected to be appealed by the IRS. If the ruling is reversed on appeal, claims based on it will likely be denied. We make no guarantee of recovery. Filing a protective claim preserves your rights but does not guarantee payment.
