Business Payment Plan

Do you qualify?

Your specific tax situation will determine which payment plan options are available to you. Payment options include full payment or a long-term payment plan (installment agreement) (paying in more than a 120 days).

You may qualify to apply online, if:
• Long-term payment plan (installment agreement): You have filed all required returns and owe less than $25,000 in combined tax, penalties, and interest.

If you are a sole proprietor or independent contractor, apply for a payment plan as an individual.

Note: Setup fees may be higher if you apply for a payment plan by phone, mail, or in-person. Get more information on other payment plan options and fees.

What does my business need to apply?

• Your Employer Identification Number (EIN)
• Date the business was established (MM/YYYY)
• Address from most recently filed tax return
• Your Caller ID from notice

How do I review or revise an existing plan?

Reviewing a payment plan

You can view details of your current payment plan (type of agreement, due dates, and amount you need to pay) by logging into the Online Payment Agreement tool using the Apply/Revise button below.

What you can change using the Online Payment Agreement tool

If your existing payment plan is not paid through a direct debit, you can use the Online

Payment Agreement tool to make the following changes:

• Change your monthly payment amount
• Change your monthly payment due date
• Convert an existing agreement to a direct debit agreement
• Reinstate after default

You can log into the Online Payment Agreement tool using the Apply/Revise button below.
If your payment plan is paid through direct debit, you must contact us to make a change.

How to revise an online payment plan

Log in to the Online Payment Agreement tool using the Apply/Revise button below. On the first page, you can revise your current plan type, payment date, and amount. Then submit your changes.

If your new monthly payment amount does not meet the required payment amount, you will be prompted to revise the payment amount. If you are unable to make the minimum required payment amount, you will receive directions for completing a Form 433-F

Collection Information Statement (PDF) and how to submit it.
If your plan has lapsed through default and is being reinstated, you may incur a reinstatement fee.
