I'd get a tax attorney if at the least for the free one-hour consult most offer - preferably one that doesn't advertise on late night TV. I am not an attorney, just a guy on the internet so take my advice for what it's worth. I think the last step for you is the Offer In Compromise - in simple form you'll show them how much your net worth is, and give it to them. In return they'll retire your tax debt. Obviously, it's going to depend on how much you are worth/vs owe, and if they think you operated in good faith or not. You need to not be in bankruptcy, and current on all filings to offer it. They also will come down HARD on you if you miss any filings/payments for 5 years after.
