Input schema
| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| balance_owed_usd | number | yes | The unpaid tax balance (the tax itself, before penalties and interest). |
| months_late | number | yes | Whole months past the deadline. The failure-to-file penalty counts any part of a month as a full month. |
| return_filed | boolean | no | Whether you actually FILED the return (even if you did not pay). If false, the larger 5%/month failure-to-file penalty applies. Defaults to false (not filed). |
