Overview
- This chapter provides procedures for processing Payroll Deduction agreements and Direct Debit installment agreements. Payroll deduction agreements are those agreements where employers deduct payments from taxpayer’s wages, and mail them to the Internal Revenue Service. Direct Debit Agreements allow the Service to debit taxpayer's bank accounts. Payroll Deduction agreements and Direct Debit installment agreements benefit the taxpayer by reducing the likelihood of default and lessening taxpayer burden.
5.14.10.2 (09-30-2004)
Payroll Deduction Agreements
- The use of Form 2159, Payroll Deduction Agreement, must be strongly encouraged when the taxpayer is a wage earner, particularly if the taxpayer defaulted on a previous installment agreement.
- Private employers, states, and political subdivisions are not required to enter into payroll deduction agreements. Taxpayers should determine whether their employers will accept and process executed agreements before agreements are submitted for approval or finalized.
I am willing to bet you have never seen THAT Internal Revenue Manual quote posted on the wall of the company or organization you work for, in their “LAW BULLETIN BOARD”.
Pick one of the two choices below and circle it.
(1) (I knew that my private employer was NOT required to enter into payroll deduction, and I signed the withholding agreement anyway, knowingly and voluntarily.)
(Note: Before you pick this first one, you may want to read what the United States Supreme Court ruled in the case of Brady v. United States, 397 U.S. 742, 748 (1970) which states, “Waivers of Constitutional Rights not only must be voluntary, but must be knowingly intelligent acts done with sufficient awareness of the relevant circumstances and likely consequences.”
(2) (I did NOT know that the Internal Revenue Manual 5.14.10.2.2. says that my private employer was NOT required to enter into payroll deduction with me, and therefore I could not
possibly have signed any agreement to do so voluntarily and knowingly, in light of the above Supreme Court decision.)
SOME FINAL RESEARCH TO WRAP IT ALL UP
What if a person WANTS to be withheld on?
After all, we all are supposed to have a Constitutionally protected right to contract, under Article 1 Section 10 Clause 1, right?
(Although I personally cannot think of a legitimate reason why any American, working at a common job in one of the 50 states of the union, would want to do so, unless their pay or earnings were clearly within one or more of those specific statutes above, and that statute also had enforcement regulations.)
What do the Regulations say about that?
If withholding is not mandatory, then it must be voluntary, so the search in the Code of Federal Regulations required me to include the word “voluntary” in the search engine.
Let’s see what it says about VOLUNTARY WITHHOLDING AGREEMENTS.

The world gets crazier and crazier everyday, doesn't it? The world that many
of us thought was there, isn't. The bottom has dropped out of everything. The
illusions have been revealed, we have found out who has been pulling the strings
behind the scenes. Millions have lost their jobs, have mortgage
problems, credit card issues, credit repair problems and
foreclosure. What can be
done? Amazingly, we have been mislead. We have been taught that we can control
government by voting. The founder of the Rothschild dynasty, Mayer Amschel
Bauer, told the secret of controlling the government of a nation over 200 years
ago. He said, "Permit
me to issue and control the money of a nation and I care not who makes its
laws." Get
the picture? Your freedom hinges first on the nation's banks and money system.
It's all about 'commerce'. Freedom is connected with Debt Elimination for
each individual. Not only does this end
personal debt, it places the people first in line
as creditors to the National Debt ahead of the banks. They don't wish for
you to know this. It has to do with recognizing WHO you really are in A
New Beginning: A Practical Course in Miracles, an informational study. Is
your credit rating bad for reasons that seem out of your control? There are
ways of credit repair,
so you can men those broken fences too. Do you want to keep your children protected
from outside forces, there are ways of protecting
your children. Do you want
to keep your sons and daughters free from 'the draft'? Check this out.
