This form is a sample letter in Word format covering the subject matter of the title of the form.
Dear [IRS Representative], I am writing to formally request that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) refrain from offsetting my tax refund against any outstanding debts or obligations. I understand that the IRS has the authority to withhold a portion or the entirety of my tax refund amount in order to fulfill certain financial obligations. However, I kindly ask that you consider my circumstances and allow me to receive my full tax refund amount due to the unique circumstances of my residency in Puerto Rico. As a resident of Puerto Rico, I am subject to the Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Code (PR IRC), which governs the taxation system on the island. Puerto Rico operates under a distinct tax regime separate from the mainland United States, and thus, my tax obligations and financial circumstances may be different from those residing in the fifty states. Firstly, Puerto Rico is classified as a territory of the United States and its residents are not required to file federal income tax returns. Instead, Puerto Rican residents are subject to local taxes imposed by the Government of Puerto Rico. Therefore, my tax refund represents a significant portion of my annual income and serves as a crucial financial resource. Furthermore, the economic challenges and natural disasters faced by Puerto Rico in recent years have created a unique financial strain on its residents. The devastation caused by Hurricane Maria in 2017, combined with the ongoing economic crisis, has significantly impacted the financial stability of many individuals living on the island. As a result, many of us rely heavily on our tax refunds as a means to recover and rebuild our lives. Considering these circumstances, I kindly request that the IRS exempt my tax refund from any offsetting recovery efforts. This will allow me to utilize the full amount for personal expenses, including basic needs, household repairs, and medical bills, which are essential for rebuilding and maintaining a sustainable life in Puerto Rico. I appreciate your understanding and consideration in this matter, and I kindly ask for your prompt attention to my request. If you require any further documentation or information regarding my situation, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you for your time and cooperation. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Contact Information] Different types of Puerto Rico Sample Letters for Requesting IRS not to Offset against Tax Refunds could include variations in personal circumstances, additional supporting documents, or specific provisions that apply differently to individuals based on their unique situations. However, the main objective of all these letters would be to request the IRS to refrain from offsetting tax refunds against outstanding debts or obligations for Puerto Rican residents.
