The short answer is, you cannot: Any money you come into possession of, from whatever source, is a fair game when it comes to the IRS tax debt. They go after people's inheritance money, disability claims, personal injury lawsuits, gifts - whatever. If you try to create something like you are describing, this could be perceived as intentional tax evasion, which could result in criminal tax evasion charges. So don't do it. Instead, disclose your amount to the IRS, and perhaps you can still settle with the IRS if this is the only money you get to live on and you have no other income.
