if i’m given IRS Power of Attorney (form 2848) for someone am i liable for their debts?

duran asked:


if a indvidual gives me POA with the IRS using form 2848 and i make installment arrangement on their behalf am i liable for the payments? the individual does have some money to make the payments. you can assume i am not intentioanlly misleadin cheating, etc… the irs. we are not trying to dispute the amount, just trying to help an individual settle his back tax amounts for a couple years.
is there anything i should be concerned with?
thanks.
the TP was a self contractor so either did not pay enough quarterly or none at all, but did files tax forms.
