The IRS (Internal Revenue Service) offers various programs to assist taxpayers in understanding and fulfilling their tax obligations. These programs include resources for filing taxes, guidance on deductions and credits, and tools for checking the status of refunds. The IRS also provides educational materials to help individuals and businesses navigate the tax system. Additionally, the IRS has programs aimed at helping those in financial hardship. For example, the Fresh Start Initiative allows taxpayers to set up payment plans or settle tax debts for less than the full amount owed. These programs are designed to promote compliance and ease the burden of tax payments.
