😓 Owe the IRS—but don’t have the cash?

If you’re facing a tax balance you can’t afford to pay right now, the IRS will often let you pay it off over time through an Installment Agreement—but it has to be done right.

At Nirvana Business Consulting, we help small business owners set up smart, compliant IRS payment plans that protect their business and sanity.

  • 📌 What’s an Installment Agreement?

    An Installment Agreement is a formal payment plan between you and the IRS. It allows you to:

    Avoid enforced collection actions (levies, liens, etc.)

    Pay your balance over several months or years

    Stay in good standing—even with tax debt

    There are several types depending on how much you owe and your financial situation.

  • ✅ Who’s It For?

    You may qualify if:

    You owe under $250,000 in combined taxes and penalties

    You’ve filed all required tax returns

    You’re not currently in bankruptcy

    You want to avoid levies or wage garnishment

    You can make regular payments—even if small

  • 🛠️ What We Help With

    We make sure your IRS payment plan is set up properly, and fits your cash flow and business goals.

    ✔️ Determine the right type of agreement (short-term, guaranteed, streamlined, partial pay)
    ✔️ Review your IRS account and compliance history
    ✔️ Prepare and submit Form 9465 and/or Form 433-A/B
    ✔️ Respond to IRS follow-up requests
