Can`t you afford to pay your income taxes? You may be able to qualify for a installment payment plan at the Internal Revenue Service. The minimum monthly payment for your plan depends on how much you owe. If you can pay the full amount due within 120 days, you can avoid paying the fee for setting up a phased contract. You can request a short-term payment plan if you can pay in full within 120 days using the OPA app under IRS.gov/OPA or by calling the IRS at 800-829-1040. You can calculate your payment based on your disposable income with Form 433. A partial payment plan can be set up for a longer repayment period and the IRS can file a federal tax pledge to protect its interests. You may need to provide pay slips and bank statements to support your application and inject your own funds into your own assets. The waiver or refund of user fees applies only to taxpayers with adjusted gross income, as defined for the last year for which such information is available, at or less than 250% of the federal poverty line (low-income taxpayers) who enter into long-term payment plans (phased agreements) on or after April 10. 2018. If you are a low-income taxpayer, user fees are waived if you agree to pay direct debits by entering into a debit contract (DDIA). The only payment option that qualifies the low-income taxable person to waive the fee for the use of the temperance agreement is his or her consent to make electronic payments through a debit instrument by entering into a DDIA.
