An installment agreement is used when you cannot pay your tax liability in a lump sum and have no equity in assets against which you can borrow, but have sufficient income to pay the amount over a period of time.

How to request an installment agreement

In most cases an installment agreement can be requested by either:

1. Attaching Form 9565 (Installment Agreement Request) to the front of the tax return when filing, or
2. Completing the Installment Agreement Request online (http://www.irs.gov/Individuals/Online-Payment-Agreement-Application)
