Recent Installment agreement w/ IRS...Is FHA possible?

Hello! I am an old member back again to stalk the boards and absorb all the free knowledge...Smiley Wink

 

I have moved my family across country here to AZ from NJ  and We are  first time FHA homebuyers (hopefully lol)and we are trying to buy  for $220,000/ $1500 yrly taxes/500yrly insurance .  I haven't met with any banks or brokers yet... Long story short I  owe $10,000 back taxes for 2010 Smiley Surprised , and just recently have set up a payment plan with the IRS for $300 a month. I would like to qualify without paying the back taxes in advance, but just factor them into my DTI as we can easily absorb that. We make about 130,000 a year W-2 employees, we will only have enough saved for down payment and closing costs. Currently our rent is $2000 a month. Are there any Banks/Lenders that are ok with the back taxes as long as you are on a payment agreement with the IRS? Oh and our scores are currently about 600 across the board ,but we were maxed on nearly 8 cards last month from our wedding. All have been paid in full so hopefully we will see a 80-100 pt jump. No fatal baddies I just have a couple of small CA I'm working on.No lates or negs in the last 12mths

 

So the big question is not will we qualify with credit history, scores, or income , but will they allow it due to the back taxes and us being on a installment ageement for only 5mths? No liens were ever filed and this is the first time I've ever owed taxes so I'm petrified!  Any help/advice would be MUCH appreciated!

I did FHA with an IRS installment agreement and it never came up....was still able to get past CAIVRS. I don't think those show up, but you should disclose them in terms of not getting in over your head.

Hi MrSmall! How long were you in the agreement for before being approved?Whay bank did you go with? Did you have to provide a copy of the agreement or payment history? Thanks! Anyone else have any experience w/this?
