What should you have ready for the call?

Have these ready so your tax pro can review your balance and your payment plan options.

  • Your Social Security number and the IRS letter, if you have one.
  • The tax years you owe for, and your latest return.
  • The monthly amount you can pay, and the day of the month that suits you.
  • Your bank routing and account numbers, if you want automatic withdrawals.

Can a tax pro handle the IRS for you?

Yes. A licensed tax pro answers 24/7 and makes the IRS call for you, with your written permission.

Setting up by phone costs $107, per the IRS payment plan page, and your tax pro checks whether a cheaper route fits. Your tax pro can also run a monthly figure with you, or try our payment plan calculator.
