Form 9465

Use this skill when an individual or a sole proprietor (including one whose business has closed) cannot pay a federal tax balance in full and wants a monthly IRS payment plan, either by Form 9465 or by deciding that the online application is the better channel. Triggers on phrases like "Form 9465", "installment agreement", "IRS payment plan", "can't pay my tax bill", "pay the IRS monthly", "set up a payment plan with the IRS", "streamlined installment agreement", "Online Payment Agreement", "OPA", "direct debit installment agreement", "Form 433-F with 9465", "balance due notice and I can't pay". Do NOT use for: settling the debt for less than the full amount (offer in compromise) — use form-656; removing penalties or interest — use form-843; amending a return to reduce the tax — use form-1040-x; an operating business that owes payroll taxes, or a corporation or partnership (they call the IRS; Form 9465 does not apply); anyone in bankruptcy or with an offer in compromise pending (call 800-829-1040).
