Form 907: Agreement to Extend the Time to Bring Suit

Form 907, Agreement to Extend the Time to Bring Suit, is an agreement between taxpayers and the Commissioner of Internal Revenue. The form says the taxpayers may bring suit to recover the taxes it lists on or before an expiration date written on the form.

The form says it is used to extend the two-year period for filing a refund suit after the IRS issues a statutory notice of claim disallowance, for example letter 105C. The claims it lists have already been filed and disallowed in whole or in part. The form also says the agreement is not effective until an authorized IRS employee signs it on behalf of the Commissioner, and that requesting an appeal does not extend the two-year period.

The taxpayers, a spouse, a representative or corporate officers sign, and an IRS employee with delegated authority signs for the IRS. You can fill out Form 907 free in your browser on this page and download it without an account.

Timing, effect and signatures

When it takes effect

The form says the agreement is not effective until an authorized IRS employee signs it on behalf of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue.

The two-year period

The form says requesting an appeal does not extend the two-year period, and that if the period expires without an agreement, the right to bring a refund suit is lost and the IRS cannot issue a refund.

Before it is signed

The form says: "To protect your interests, you may need to bring suit before this agreement is signed."

Reopening the claims

A written request to reopen and reconsider the claims may be made any time before the expiration date. It identifies the claims by amount, period and the notice letter or Form 2297 waiver date, with a copy of this agreement attached.

Cases in litigation

The form says that once the IRS employee signs, a final decision in any case now in litigation does not bind that official on the issues for the taxes covered.

Where it goes

The form prints no mailing address. It carries an In reply refer to box for the reference on the IRS correspondence.

Who signs Form 907?

  • Taxpayers with disallowed claims

    The form says claims for the amounts it lists have been filed by the taxpayers and disallowed in whole or in part, with a notice of disallowance mailed or the notice requirement waived.

  • Spouses on joint returns

    The instructions say both spouses sign the original and copy for any year with a joint return, unless one signs as agent for the other under a power of attorney.

  • Attorneys, agents and fiduciaries

    An attorney or agent may sign if a power of attorney specifically authorizes it. A fiduciary such as an executor, administrator or trustee also attaches Form 56 if one has not already been filed.

  • Corporations

    The instructions say a corporation signs with the corporate name followed by the signature and title of the officers authorized to sign.

  • IRS employees

    An IRS employee with delegated authority signs and dates the form for the Commissioner. The instructions cite Delegation Order 1-23 (IRM 1.2.2.2.20) and Delegation Order 8-4 (IRM 1.2.2.9.4).

The agreement is between the taxpayers named on it and the Commissioner of Internal Revenue. The second page holds instructions for both sides.
