You can fight it but you will need a lawyer and that will cost more. And there is no way you cannot not pay the IRS. |

you can personally save about $1300 by breaking up with her and leaving her to pay the rest. |

They will take monthly payments. 2 years ago my hubby owed quite a bit and he paid it in monthly intallments of $500 until it was paid up.
Evaluate your income and withholding so you dont end up in the same situation next year. |

the IRS does offer payment plans - either the filing form itself or the letter you received with the amount owed will have a number for you to call for this service. check with the person that prepared her taxes - they should be able to give you assistance on that. |

Do YOU owe it? If not, don't worry about it. You're not obligated to pay your girlfriend's way through life. |

She needs to file anyway - otherwise it will just get worse, since she'll owe additional penalties. She should send them what she can. They'll contact her, or she can contact them, to set up a payment plan to pay the rest.
She should also adjust her withholding so this doesn't happen again next year. |

Wait until April and then contact the IRS and arrange a payment plan. The interest rate they charge is usually lower than anything else you could get, they're really easy to work with, and your monthly payment should be reasonable. Be sure to send your tax return in on time, even if you don't send any money with it. |

Have your girlfriend contact the I.R.S. and they will make arrangments with her to make monthly payments. I did this mysefy several years ago and the I.R.S. was actually very nice about it. They just want their money. |

Go here: http://www.irs.gov/individuals/article/0,,id=149373,00.html and set up a payment plan. Since $2,500 is all that is owed, you are basically pre-approved. However, I think you may have to file the return first and wait for the IRS to post it before you can set the plan up. Whatever you do, don't file late. |

You can file for a 6 month extention on filing, and then fill out the paperwork to set up a payment plan. They're pretty reasonable about making it affordable for you to pay them back, but you might owe a penalty for delayed payment. |

Yes there is. The IRS understands when someone doesn't have the cash on hand for a larger than expected tax bill. When you file or shortly after you can submit another form requesting an installment payment agreement. This can be for up to 60 months so make your plan realistic, but at the same time understand that they will not look kindly on a repeat before this one is paid off, so adjust your withholding accordingly. Don't get caught by surprise again! Don't make the time longer than it needs to be either. These requests are almost automatic with a bill of her size. |

The IRS is very reasonable to work with, when it comes to repayment plans. Contrary to popular opinion, they don't really want to wipe you out regardless of the consequences to you.
File your taxes. Within a couple months, you'll get something in the mail from the IRS. It takes a while for them to get you into their system enough to set up the plan. Call them when you get your tax bill letter.
They'll often give you up to 5 years to pay it. Penalties and interest add up to about 18% per year, so pay it as soon as you can. But, you can always set up a plan with a low payment, and pay more as often as you can. And next year, if you have a refund, they'll keep it to offset what you owe, which can help to get it paid off.
Ignoring the IRS will bring pain and headaches you don't want. Just call them and talk to them. It's easy, painless, and everyone I've talked to there was actually quite helpful. |

You can request a hardship from the IRS or if you just need more time file an extension to pay. |

The IRS doesn't care and they aren't going to feel sorry for her. They want their money. You better start looking into getting a loan or they'll make life hard for you. |
