Have you checked your tax transcript on the IRS website? Sometimes it shows more detailed info than the 'Where's My Refund' tool.
I didn't even know about this! Thanks, I'll check it out right away.

Has anyone gone through this process recently? What should I expect when I call them? Any tips or scripts you can share would be really helpful. I'm kinda nervous about making this call and want to be prepared.

Quick question - does setting up a payment plan affect your credit score at all? I'm in the process of buying a house and I'm worried this might mess things up.
It shouldn't affect your credit score directly, but the tax lien might show up on your credit report. Might wanna talk to your mortgage broker about it.
Tips for reaching customer service to set up new plan?
Hey everyone, I'm trying to set up a new plan with my service provider and I'm having trouble getting through to customer service. Has anyone else had this issue lately? Any tips on how to actually talk to a real person?

Here's what I've learned after dealing with this issue multiple times: 1. Use the company's app if they have one. Sometimes you can chat with a rep there. 2. Call during off-peak hours (early morning or late evening). 3. If you get an automated system, try saying 'agent' or 'representative' repeatedly. 4. Keep a record of who you talk to and when. It helps if you need to escalate later. 5. Be polite but firm. The person on the other end is probably dealing with angry customers all day. 6. If all else fails, file a complaint with the FCC or your state's public utility commission. Hope this helps! Good luck getting your plan set up.
Wow, thanks for the detailed advice! I'll definitely try some of these tips. Really appreciate you taking the time to write all this out.
This should be pinned at the top of the sub tbh. So helpful!

Have you checked if there's an IRS office near you? Sometimes you can make an appointment and talk to someone in person. It's a pain, but it might be faster than waiting on hold forever.
