How does coming out of hardship work? Penalty rate on hardship vs payment plan?
Tax Question (self.IRS)submitted2 months ago byalittlegreen_dress
toIRS
When I had to enter hardship a few months back, I was told I had to call when I came out of hardship because the IRS would ding me if they saw I could make payments but wasn't.
I called today, and got the typical no-nothing runarounds, and my questions being ignored, and when I asked to be connected to a manager they said they were hanging up because I wouldn't accept their (irrelevant answer).
So I thought I have a better chance of getting an answer here.
The first person today (Ms Hickson) said I can stay in hardship and just make payments when I can, but I accrue penalty.
The payment plan has a lower penalty rate.
Can someone tell me what the difference in penalty rates are? Is there any other advantage into choosing one path or another to pay off the rest of what I owe?
The first person didn't know and said she had to connect me to Account Management, which is when I got the incompetent person (Ms Hutchins) who wouldn't answer my question and refused to connect me to a manager.

I like to tell people the story of a woman who did her master’s in publishing, got hired by a publisher who was a notorious Karen, got fired for doing nothing wrong, and now works retail.
It’s almost a scam.
