Additional information
Per the IRS Instructions for Form 9465:
"Guaranteed installment agreement.You’re eligible for a guaranteed installment agreement if the tax you owe isn’t more than $10,000 and:
- During the past 5 tax years, you (and your spouse if filing a joint return) have timely filed all income tax returns and paid any income tax due, and haven’t entered into an installment agreement for the payment of income tax;
- You agree to pay the full amount you owe within 3 years and to comply with the tax laws while the agreement is in effect; and
- You’re financially unable to pay the liability in full when due."
Will the IRS withdraw the entire tax due amount from the Form 1040 if Form 9465 is e-filed with the return?
The amount of payment you’re making with the request from Form 9465, line 8 will be transmitted as the amount to be withdrawn.
The E-file Summary may say that the amount to be paid with the return is the full tax due from the Form 1040, page 2, but the electronic file shows the correct amount from the Form 9465. A review of the Client Letter or Filing Instructions will show the appropriate amount that will be withdrawn from the taxpayer's bank account.
