When the IRS May Waive Interest

The law does not permit the IRS to remove or reduce interest based on reasonable cause.

However, there is a situation when the IRS will remove interest.

The law requires the IRS to remove interest up to the date you were requested to repay an erroneous refund when:

  1. You did not cause the erroneous refund in any way, and
  2. The refund doesn't exceed $50,000.
