  25. Taxpayers or debtors with a substantial outstanding tax amount are penalized for not paying taxes on time. However, some of the debtors find themselves lucky enough to qualify for a one-time penalty abatement which means that the debtors can request the IRS to abate or waive the penalties imposed on them after they are assessed.

  26. Christians can also make a prayer request if they wish to have specific prayers made for their loved ones to the church. The church members will accept your request and make special prayers for you and the reason that you have mentioned. It is believed that prayers made in a church are accepted much more quickly than prayers made anywhere else.
