District of Columbia Tax Payment Plan

The Office of Tax and Revenue (OTC) will consider an installment plan request if you are unable to pay off your tax debt in full. You will need to request an installment agreement form from the Collections Division representative assigned to your case.

However, if your tax liability is $5,000 or more and/ or your proposed installment agreement will last longer than 24 months, your representative will also ask you to submit the following.

Current federal income tax return
Form PA-1, Collection Information Statement for Individuals

Whether or not a lien will be filed will be determined after an installment agreement has been agreed upon. Be aware that the OTC may periodically reevaluate your agreement. If you have any questions and cannot reach your representative, you can call 202-442-6890 for assistance.
