Installment Agreement

The IRS will attempt to collect any unpaid tax debt through your installment agreement before looking into other means such as enforcement action or looking into your assets to full pay the debt.

If the IRS offers you an installment agreement, you must make sure to record the details of the IRS officer that acknowledges your application. It can prove useful if you don't start to get a monthly installment statement via your mail. You will require their information to confirm that your agreement was accepted in a circumstance where they are asserting something else. It is recommended that you send in your agreed installment agreement payments on the day you agreed while you are waiting on the confirmation letter from the IRS.
