We have had many questions about electronic payment options for taxes due the IRS.

The fact is that there are several ways to pay your taxes online or over the phone.

Electronic withdrawl is one possibility and the best way for this method is to enroll with EFTPS at www.eftps.com. The enrollment takes approximately 15 days to complete so make sure to enroll several weeks before the tax is due. After enrollment you can make tax payments at any time.

You can also pay your tax via Debit or Credit Card over the phone, online or when you e-file.

For Debit and Credit card payments there are fees involved. For Debit card payments there are flat fees and for Credit card payments the fee is a percentage of the tax due. These are also dependent upon the third party processor you choose to use.

You can find out more about electronic payment options and obtain a list of the third party processors by going to the IRS website.
