A payment plan agreement, also known as an installment agreement, is a written legal document that allows one party to make smaller payments over time to payoff a larger debt.
Your minimum monthly payment for an IRS installment plan is generally what you owe divided by 72, if you don't specify a different amount. You can start an IRS installment plan by applying online, over the phone, or by mailing Form 9465 to the IRS.
A payment plan with the IRS where you agree to have your monthly payments automatically withdrawn from your checking account is a direct debit installment agreement (DDIA). A DDIA has several advantages: lower user fees and less chance the agreement will default.

An installment contract is a single contract that is completed by a series of performances –such as payments, performances of a service, or delivery of goods–rather than being performed all at one time. Installment contracts can provide that installments are to be performed by either one or both parties .
Form 9465 can be included electronically with an e-filed return or paper-filed. When filing a paper return, complete Form 9465, attach it to the front of your client's return before mailing. They should receive a response to the request for installment payments within 30 days.
