Federal Tax Payment Levy Program

In July 2000, the Internal Revenue Service  with the Department of the Treasury and Financial Management Service , started the Federal Payment Levy Program  which is authorized by Internal Revenue Code Section 6331 (h), as prescribed by the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 Section 1024.

Through this  federal tax program, the IRS can collect your back taxes through a continuous levy ( 668W) on certain federal payments disbursed by FMS.

The following is a list of federal payments that can be levied through the FPLP:

1. Federal employee retirement annuities
2. Federal payments made to you as a contractor/vendor doing business with the government (including Defense contracts)
3. Federal employee travel advances or reimbursements
4. Certain Social Security Benefits
5. Federal Salaries for Federal employees

The federal program will expand to include additional federal employee salaries and other types of federal payments.

Federal payments to a delinquent taxpayer will not be included in the program in certain circumstances. These circumstances include  bankruptcy, have applied for relief as an innocent or injured spouse, made alternative arrangements to pay such as offers in compromise or installment agreements.
