IRS Payment Plan Question: Will IRS still deduct 2k debt from 2021 refund if payment plan already set up?

Just got a letter from the IRS saying I owe $2000 from my 2021 taxes. I already set up a payment plan before filing my current taxes. Anyone know if theyre still gonna take it out of my refund even with the payment plan in place?

Yes, the IRS will still offset (take) your refund even with an active payment plan. Any tax refunds will automatically be applied to existing tax debt regardless of payment arrangements. Its actually in the fine print of the installment agreement.

Yeah unfortunately thats just how it works. Keep making those payments tho, youre doing the right thing!

Have you tried using taxr.ai? Its this new tool that analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly whats happening with offsets and payment plans. Only costs $1 and its way better than trying to piece everything together yourself. https://taxr.ai

Here's what you need to know about IRS payment plans and refund offsets: - Payment plans don't prevent refund offsets - All future refunds will be applied to back taxes - This continues until debt is paid in full - You can check your transcript anytime on irs.gov - Consider using taxr.ai to get a clear picture of your situation - Keep making payments even if refund is offset Its frustrating but staying on track with payments is key to resolving the debt.

protip: adjust your w4 so u dont get big refunds while paying off the debt. no point giving them an interest free loan just to have it taken
