IRS Policy Statement 5-133, Delinquent Returns – Enforcement of Filing Requirements, provides a general rule that taxpayers must file six years of back tax returns to be in good standing with the IRS. The policy also states that IRS management would have to approve any deviation from that rule.

An installment plan allows you to pay your taxes over time while avoiding garnishments, levies or other collection actions. You'll still owe penalties and interest for paying your taxes late, but it can help make the payments more affordable.

If you are an individual, you may qualify to apply online if: Long-term payment plan (installment agreement): You owe $50,000 or less in combined tax, penalties and interest, and filed all required returns. Short-term payment plan: You owe less than $100,000 in combined tax, penalties and interest.

If you don't qualify for an IA through OPA, you may also request an IA by submitting Form 9465, Installment Agreement Request, with the IRS. When you request an IA using the form, generally, you'll receive a response from the IRS within 30 days notifying you of whether the IA request was approved or rejected.

There are two types of Streamlined Installment Agreements, depending on how much you owe and for what type of tax. For both types, you must pay the debt in full within 72 months (six years), and within the time limit for the IRS to collect the tax, but you won't need to submit a financial statement.

Internal Revenue Code section 6502 provides that the length of the period for collection after assessment of a tax liability is 10 years. The collection statute expiration ends the government's right to pursue collection of a liability.

Form 13844, Application For Reduced User Fee For Installment Agreements, is a formal document created by the IRS to reduce user fees for taxpayers who are not already classified as low-income and are applying for a tax debt payment plan.
