Practice question: Compromise of Assessment

Multiple Choice Hard

Practice question

A property’s delinquencies are stipulated to be paid pursuant to an existing compromise agreement. The owner argues that converting the next compromise installment into a single lump-sum payment removes the RA12001 Section30 exclusion automatically. No cancellation of the compromise or other change in legal status occurred. Which is correct?
  1. The exclusion concerns delinquencies being paid pursuant to a compromise; changing payment format alone does not erase that status
  2. Any lump-sum payment necessarily destroys every compromise
  3. The amnesty automatically cancels principal because a compromise exists
  4. The owner may privately repeal the exclusion
  5. Section30 contains no compromise-related exclusion
