Question

If I filed and selected to make payments on my owed taxes, how do I go about actually making those payments?

The IRS website doesn't show that I owe, so do I still make a payment through them? Will it find it's way to my owed taxes?

The IRS will be sending you payment plan information in the mail approximately 30 days after they have received your tax return.

It's been almost 2 months since I did this. Should I have gotten something by now? I don't want to get in trouble for not paying it.

Contact the IRS and speak with an agent using this procedure -

Call the IRS: 1-800-829-1040 hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Monday-Friday
When calling the IRS do NOT choose the first option re: "Refund", or it will send you to an automated phone line.
So after first choosing your language, then do NOT choose Option 1 (refund info). Choose option 2 for "personal income tax" instead.
Then press 1 for "form, tax history, or payment".
Then press 3 "for all other questions."
Then press 2 "for all other questions."
- When it asks you to enter your SSN or EIN to access your account information, don't enter anything.
- After it asks twice, you will get another menu.

Press 2 for personal or individual tax questions.
Then press 3 for all other inquiries
It should then transfer you to an agent.
