IRS Form 433-F Spanish – Collection Information Statement (Spanish version)

IRS Form 433-F Spanish – If you’re dealing with an IRS tax debt and need to set up a payment plan or prove financial hardship, the IRS Form 433-F Spanish (also known as Form 433-F (SP)) is a key document. This Spanish version of the Collection Information Statement helps the IRS understand your income, expenses, assets, and liabilities so they can determine how much you can afford to pay.

The latest version (Rev. 7-2024) is the most current as of 2026. You can download it directly here: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f433fsp.pdf.

What Is IRS Form 433-F (SP)?

Form 433-F (SP) is the Spanish-language Collection Information Statement for wage earners and self-employed individuals. The IRS uses it to collect updated financial details when you:

  • Request an installment agreement (often submitted with Form 9465(SP) or the combined Form 433-H(SP)).
  • Ask for temporarily delayed collection (currently not collectible status).
  • Need to show you cannot pay your tax debt in full.

It is shorter and simpler than Form 433-A (the full Collection Information Statement for Offer in Compromise or more complex cases) — typically just two pages.

Purpose (straight from the form): “El Formulario 433-F(SP) sirve para obtener la información financiera actualizada necesaria para determinar cómo un trabajador asalariado o un trabajador por cuenta propia puede pagar una deuda tributaria pendiente.”

Who Should Use Form 433-F Spanish?

  • Salaried employees (asalariados)
  • Self-employed individuals (trabajadores por cuenta propia)
  • Anyone filing jointly with a spouse who needs to provide household financial information
  • Spanish-speaking taxpayers who prefer to complete the form in their native language

Note: Businesses use Form 433-B (SP) instead.
