owe taxes for second straight year


Long story short I'm on a payment plan for my tax bill from last year and it looks like i'll owe again this year, will they allow me to add that amount to my current plan? Thanks Reny


I think they will set up a new plan with you once this recent taxes are paid, Have you went to the irs website and looked at the frequently asked questions, they may have something stated about it there. I am on a payment plan with them also, I owe just a little this year, so I will pay it and be done with it.

How big is your debt that you are currently paying on? Don't forget about the economic stimulus, it is my understanding that they will deduct any taxes owed out of it, so that will be a chunk off your debt right there. I don't know what you situation is but for a married couple it is $1200 and $600 for single, more if you have children.

I would go to the irs website and surf the questions and see what you can find out there. goodluck.

Bad news, good news.....

Bad: If you owe the IRS, they will reduce/keep your Stimulus payment. I know, that ain't very damn stimulating to me, either.

Good: If they reduce/keep your payment, they will apply that money to your debt with them. That could be a significant leg up on getting free of them.

If you're on a payment plan, and you're current with it, they may or may not keep your payment. Check the IRS website link below, or call them up and ask. What's the worst they can say?
