Taxes on debt forgiveness - If your forgiven amount is at least $600, the IRS would consider that a taxable income. And you might be wondering how the IRS would know...the creditor sends them a report. The creditor also provides you with the form 1099-C for this.

Does the IRS have an exception to the rule ..program? It doesn't make sense to do debt relief and pay extra for it?

There's what they call Offer In Compromise and you can read more about it herehttp://www.irs.gov/businesses/small/article/0,,id=104593,00.html

It's no secret though that only about 2% of applicants qualify - If you file for an offer in compromise you'd be required to prepare and submit an extensive amount of documentation. So you might want to see a tax attorney for those.
