Final regulations under 31 USC 9701 increase the amount of the user fees imposed under sections 300.1 and 300.2 for entering into and restructuring or reinstating installment agreements. The regulations bring the fees in line with the actual costs to the IRS. Currently, the IRS charges $43 for entering into an installment agreement and $24 for restructuring or reinstating an installment agreement that is in default. The IRS recently completed a review of the installment agreement program and determined that the full cost of an installment agreement is $105, and the full cost of restructuring or reinstating an installment agreement is $45. The regulations reflect these costs, with one exception; the fee for entering into an installment agreement paid by way of a direct debit from the taxpayer’s checking account will be $52, to encourage this type of payment arrangement.
