I am not aware of the IRS loaning funds.

You could set up an installment payment plan with the IRS through TurboTax.

If permitted, you could also take a loan from your 401(k) plan and pay back with interest to your account, and avoid any early withdrawal penalty and any federal and state taxes.

Or do you mean IRA? Loans are not permitted from IRA plans.
