If you set up your installment agreement in your tax return and also set up an electronic payment method for paying your taxes, you will be debited for your first payment on April 18, unless you chose an earlier date (April 18 is the default choice).

 

If you did not set up an electronic payment method, you will need to start making payments either by mailing in a check, or paying online on the IRS web site. 

 

If you chose to pay by mail, you will have the first payment voucher included in the printed copy of your tax return. The IRS will mail you additional vouchers. 

 

Either way, the IRS will send you a letter in about six to eight weeks accepting your proposed plan or demanding a higher payment. In most cases they accept your plan. 

 

Once your plan is accepted, you will be debited, or need to make a payment once a month until the balance is paid off.
