If I got an installment plan approved per IRS and then file my tax return, how to I acknowledge which payment method I will use.  I have already filed form 9465.

Thanks

    Has the IRS acknowledged it because it issues an official notice confirming the terms, payment schedule, and any applicable fees

     

    What the acknowledgment includes

    According to IRS guidance, the acknowledgment will typically show:

    • The type of payment plan (short-term, long-term, simple, partial payment, etc.).

    • Monthly payment amount and payment due date.

    • Total balance and remaining term.

    • Any setup fee or other charges.

    • Instructions for making payments and contacting the IRS for changes or question

    How to confirm your acknowledgment
    Check your IRS online account (if you have one) for the confirmation notice.

    if not, you can create one by registering through ID.ME

    ID.ME

    Review mailed correspondence from the IRS.

    Call the IRS at the number on your notice or at 800‑829‑1040 (individuals) / 800‑829‑4933 (businesses) to verify the status
