Dear [IRS Representative's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to request that the IRS does not offset my tax refund against any outstanding debts or obligations. I understand that the IRS has the authority to apply all or a portion of my refund to satisfy certain debts, such as federal taxes, student loans, child support, or state income taxes. However, I kindly ask for your consideration in granting an exception in my case. I am a resident of Allegheny, Pennsylvania, and I have been facing financial hardships due to various unfortunate circumstances. [Provide details about your financial situation, such as loss of employment, medical issues, or any other relevant factors.] As a result of these challenges, I have fallen behind on certain financial obligations, including federal taxes. While I fully acknowledge and take responsibility for my tax liability, I am taking proactive steps to resolve my outstanding debts. [Explain any efforts you have made to address the debt, such as enrolling in a payment plan or contacting a tax professional.] It is my sincere belief that keeping my tax refund intact will enable me to fulfill immediate financial needs and work towards resolving outstanding debts in a more manageable manner. [Elaborate on how the refund will help you overcome specific financial burdens, such as paying essential bills, medical expenses, or supporting your family.] I kindly request that the IRS grants me this one-time exception and refrains from offsetting my tax refund against any outstanding debts. I assure you that repaying my obligations is of utmost importance to me, and I will continue to take all necessary steps to become financially stable. Please find attached supporting documentation and any relevant statements that might provide additional context to my financial situation. I hope that upon reviewing my request, you will understand the sincerity of my plea and grant my petition. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to a positive response soon. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Contact Information]
