Iowe the IRS money, and I'm thinking about taking a buyout for chrysler can they take my check

IRS can take money from your bank account. Can put lien on your house and property.
It is always good idea to pay IRS as interest and penalty will keep the amount multiplying.

Gator:

If your buyout check exceeds $10,000, you can expect that the IRS will take notice and garnish it.
