You can request a Payment Plan Agreement using any of the following options:

For individuals or those in GEAR

​You can request a Payment Plan Agreement on MyDORWAY​​.

To request an additional bill be added to your current agreement, email a completed FS-147 to PPARequest@dor.sc.gov. The FS-147 can only be submitted once for the life of the payment plan agreement. Your request will be reviewed for approval or denial.

Before requesting a payment plan, carefully review the requirements below. If you cannot meet these requirements, or any additional requirements made when you set up the agreement, you will be in default, and we must take legal action immediately to collect the debt.

You must:

  • File and pay all returns in full during the term of your Payment Plan Agreement, which includes paying estimated income taxes.
  • Have a bank account and list a checking or savings account on your Payment Plan Agreement request form.
  • Allow bank drafts. We will draft scheduled payments from your bank account.
    • If you cannot make a scheduled payment or a payment is returned to us from your bank or financial institution, your agreement will be in default.
    • If you do not allow bank drafts, you must pay a down payment equal to 20% of your total balance due.
  • Provide additional information, as needed. We may perform periodic reviews of your financial condition during the term of the agreement and request additional information to assess your continued need and determine if your debt is in jeopardy of collection.

The length of the payment plan is based on the total of your balance owed, determined by adding all of your South Carolina Individual Income Tax or GEAR debts together. The term can range from 12 months to 48 months.

As part of the agreement, the SCDOR:

  • Will not seize or levy property during the term of the agreement unless the agreement goes into default or we determine collection of the tax is in jeopardy.
  • Will apply refunds and lottery winnings to your debt: During the term of your agreement, we are required to offset any state or federal tax refunds and SC Education Lottery winnings toward your debt. These do not count as a scheduled payment.
  • Will provide written notification if the terms of the agreement change because of an improved financial condition.
  • May issue a tax lien to protect the state’s interest. This is a public record and may be reflected on your credit report.
