The IRS Private Debt Collection Program: What You Need To Know

The Internal Revenue Service has initiated a Private Debt Collection program.  They have selected four contractors to implement this program.

What this means to you – if you have an outstanding debt with the IRS and you are selected as part of this program, the IRS WILL ALWAYS notify you regarding the transfer of your account to a private collection agency.

The four groups selected for this program are:

  • CBE Group of Cedar Falls, Iowa,
    P.O. Box 2217
    Waterloo, IA 50704
    1-800-910-5837
  • Conserve of Fairport, NY
    P.O. Box 307
    Fairport, NY 14450-0307
    1-844-853-4875
  • Performant of Livermore, CA
    P.O. Box 9045
    Pleasanton CA 94566-9045
    1-844-807-9367
  • Pioneer of Horseheads, NY
    PO Box 500
    Horseheads, NY 14845
    1-800-448-3531

These four are the ONLY firms authorized to represent the IRS.  Also, the Internal Revenue Service will never assign your account to more than one of these firms.
