                                 MEMORANDUM OPINION                                   

               NIMS, Judge:  This case arises from a petition for judicial            
          review filed in response to a “NOTICE OF DETERMINATION CONCERNING           
          COLLECTION ACTION(S) UNDER SECTION 6320 and/or 6330” (Notice).              
          Unless otherwise indicated, all section references are to the               
          Internal Revenue Code in effect for the years in issue, and all             
          Rule references are to the Tax Court Rules of Practice and                  
          Procedure.  The parties do not challenge the Court’s jurisdiction           
          over this case.  Petitioners do not dispute their liability for             
          underlying taxes, interest, and penalties.  The sole issue for              
          decision is whether respondent’s rejection of petitioners’                  
          proposed installment agreement constitutes an abuse of                      
          discretion.                                                                 
                                     Background                                       
               The parties submitted this case without trial pursuant to              
          Rule 122.  The stipulations of the parties, with accompanying               
          exhibits, are incorporated herein by this reference.  At the time           
          the petition was filed in this case, petitioners resided in                 
          Oakland, New Jersey.                                                        
               Petitioner Hector Castillo is a physician with investments             
          in real estate and other business ventures.  Petitioner Mooneem             
          Castillo is not employed outside the home.  Petitioners filed               
          joint Forms 1040, U.S. Individual Income Tax Returns, for the
