I set up a payment plan with irs and they still want me to pay. I want to file

Do I need to wait until payment is complete until I file

Yes, you should file your return.   If you haven't filed yet, go to File, and on the How do you want to pay your federal taxes? screen, select Request an IRS payment plan.

If you already filed, or you can't find this option in TurboTax, you can apply for a payment plan (Form 9465) at the IRS Payment Plans and Installment Agreements website. Make sure you've filed your return before applying through their site.

For state plans - See Payment Plan Help to get a link to your state's Dept. of Revenue.
