Tax deficiency is defined in section 6211(a) of the IRS Code. Tax deficiency occurs when the correct amount of income tax owed is more than the amount shown on the taxpayer's return. This means that the taxpayer still owes tax to the IRS and might be assessed interest and/or penalties. If the taxpayer disagrees with the IRS, the taxpayer should provide the IRS with documented proof to support this.

Is it possible to surrender a home that is not in foreclosure?

You should speak to the lender about giving a "deed in lieu of foreclosure". It does less damage to your credit record than a foreclosure. You should ask about the bank's policy if there is a deficiency between the present value of the property and the amount of the loan. You should also speak to a tax advisor to determine if there will be tax consequences when you file your tax return for the year.
