Innocent Spouse Relief: Overview of the Rules and Recent Developments
CCH Incorporated
The purpose of the innocent spouse rules is to provide a method of relief from joint and several tax liability by spouses who filed a joint return on which the IRS subsequently assesses a deficiency.

Code Section 6015 substantially changed the old innocent spouse defense by increasing flexibility in the rules and providing alternative relief provisions. This course reviews the innocent spouse rules and the procedural requirements for seeking relief under Code Section 6015.

The course:

  • analyzes changes in the law as a result of recent legislation
  • defines terms used in the Code and regulations
  • presents three possible paths of relief for the innocent spouse
  • reviews qualifications for that relief
  • briefly reviews recent course decision interpreting the new proposed regulations
