IRS Payment Plans
Find The One That’s Best For You!
The IRS offers several different types of payment plans to help taxpayers deal with their tax debt. You can pay over several months or even several years!
How to Set Up An IRS Payment Plan
You can apply for a payment plan, also known as an installment agreement, on your own or enlist the help of a tax professional. Applications are processed online, by mail, or by phone.
The type of plan you choose will depend on the amount you owe and how quickly you expect to pay it off. The setup fees and monthly payments also vary by plan.
Most taxpayers are placed in either a short-term (180 days or less) or long-term plan. If you owe less than $10,000, you may also qualify for a guaranteed installment agreement, which gives you three years to pay off your tax balance.

Partial Payment Installment Agreement
Unlike other types of IRS payment plans which simply spread your payments over time, a partial payment installment agreement (PPIA) may also include tax debt forgiveness.
If you owe more than $10,000 and are experiencing financial hardship, the IRS may consider placing you in a PPIA. Under this type of payment plan, you make monthly payments based on your ability to pay. Once the statute of limitations expires, the remaining balance is forgiven.
- Have no open bankruptcy proceedings
- No active Offer in Compromise
- Be up to date on all required tax filings
- Must owe more than $10,000
The IRS will review your PPIA every two years. If your financial outlook improves, your monthly payment will likely increase. Setup fees range from $107 to $225.
