IRS PAYMENT PLAN HELP FOR PROFESSIONALS & BUSINESS OWNERS
Need a Payment Plan for IRS Tax Debt?
When you cannot pay your full federal tax balance immediately, an IRS payment plan may be one option for addressing the debt. But the right approach depends on the amount owed, filing compliance, financial circumstances, and the status of IRS collection activity.
The Fixer Firm™ reviews the tax account, identifies unresolved compliance issues, evaluates available payment and tax resolution options, and determines the appropriate strategy for the Tax Case.
Before agreeing to a payment arrangement, understand the entire tax problem.
What Is an IRS Payment Plan?
An IRS payment plan, also known as an installment agreement, allows eligible taxpayers to pay federal tax debt over time instead of paying the full balance immediately.
A payment plan does not eliminate the underlying tax debt, and eligibility and terms depend on the facts.
Before considering an installment agreement, you may need to address outstanding filing or compliance issues.
The first step is understanding the total liability, current compliance status, collection activity, financial circumstances, and whether a payment arrangement is an appropriate resolution option.
How an IRS Payment Plan Case Works
Every Tax Case is different, but the work may include:
Review the Tax Account
We review balances, IRS notices, collection activity, and available account information.
Identify Compliance Requirements
We determine whether missing returns or other outstanding compliance issues must be corrected.
Review the Financial Situation
When needed for the resolution being considered, we review relevant business or personal financial information to understand the circumstances surrounding the tax debt.
Evaluate Resolution Options
We determine whether an installment agreement or another available tax resolution strategy should be considered based on the facts of the case.
Carry Out the Resolution Strategy
When representation is included in the engagement, an authorized tax professional may communicate with the IRS regarding the proposed resolution within the scope of their authority.
Need a Plan for Your IRS Tax Debt?
Whether you're a high-earning professional or service-based business owner considering an IRS payment plan, start by telling us what's happening.
We'll review your information to determine whether your situation fits the Tax Cases we handle. If it does, we'll explain the next step in beginning your Case Assessment.
Your information is secure and confidential.
How The Fixer Firm Can Help
Getting an IRS payment plan isn't simply choosing a monthly payment. The underlying tax account and compliance problems need to be understood first.
Depending on the circumstances, a Tax Case may involve:
• Reviewing IRS balances and collection notices
• Identifying outstanding filing requirements
• Correcting unfiled returns or related compliance problems
• Reviewing relevant financial information
• Evaluating available payment and tax resolution options
• Preparing information required for the selected resolution strategy
• Communicating with the IRS when representation is included
• Addressing related collection issues
Our focus is determining an appropriate path for the entire Tax Case, not simply obtaining a monthly payment amount.
