On Saturday, July 16, 2011, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) will have open houses at Taxpayer Assistance Centers across the country. The purpose of the open house is to provide help with tax filing issues during the weekend. The participating IRS Taxpayer Assistance Centers will be offering the same services that are normally offered on weekdays.

Among the services offered include accepting payments and making payment arrangements. In other words, you don’t have to wait until Monday to pay the IRS. However, for taxpayers seekingtax relief, the Taxpayer Assistance Centers will likely not meet their needs.
