if you are making payment ever payment you make restarts that statute. It would have to be four or five years from the time of default to the statute to run out.

If you settle for less amount on back taxes with the IRS can you still make payments?

If you make an Offer in Compromise with the IRS, there are generally three options: 1. Cash Offer: Pay 20% up front when you submit the Offer. The remaining must be paid within five months of written acceptance. 2. Short Term Deferred Offer: You make monthly payments for 24 months of the amount you offer. Note that you must make the first monthly payment when you submit the offer, and you must continue making monthly payments while the IRS is considering the offer. If the IRS rejects your offer, they keep the money and it is applied towards what you owe. 3. Long Term Deferred Offer: You make monthly payments for however long is remaining on the 10 year statute of limitations. Note that the option you choose will change your settlement, because the IRS calculates each one slightly different. The cash offer will be the lowest settlement.
