Tell the software you will pay your tax due by mailing a check, and then just go ahead with your plan to apply for a payment plan with the IRS and pay accordingly.  TurboTax never knows how, when or even if you pay your tax due.   You will, of course, have to pay your TurboTax fees in order to file your tax return.

Hello KateStan2002,

When you get to the Filing tab, under Step 2, you will see the options for paying your balance due.  One of them is File now and Pay later.  This is the option you use for proposing a payment plan.

Hope this helps!
