Verified Arkansas Resolution Options

Installment agreements: Payment / installment agreements under DFA authority; installment terms addressed within Ark. Code Ann. §26-18-701 (certificate-of-indebtedness/installment provisions) and DFA collection rules.

Offer in compromise / settlement: Settlement / compromise of any controversy relating to a state tax under Ark. Code Ann. §26-18-705 (doubt as to liability or collectibility); see also §26-18-1111 (settlement of tax disputes references §26-18-705).

Penalty abatement: Penalty waiver for good cause/reasonable cause under Ark. Code Ann. §26-18-209 and §26-18-301.

Wage / levy protection: Federal CCPA floor (15 U.S.C. §1673): ordinary creditor garnishment limited to the lesser of 25% of disposable earnings or the amount exceeding 30× the federal minimum wage. State tax levies on wages may exceed this consumer cap at agency discretion. Arkansas applies the federal 75% disposable-earnings exemption.

Citation status: Statutory citations verified against state sources. Ark. Code Ann. §26-18-701 confirmed via Justia/FindLaw: certificate of indebtedness has force of a judgment, enforceable for a ten-year period (tolled 180 days past bankruptcy termination). OIC corrected to §26-18-705 (settle/compromise controversy), confirmed via FindLaw and DFA Rule 2000-4; §26-18-1111 cross-references §26-18-705.
