How to pay "Notice of Tax Return" in CA?

Hi just received a notice that I I still have a balanced, apparently its for Tax Penalty? Anyways, I'm trying pay for it online however I'm confused as to what I should chose: I think I narrow it down to either "personal income tax return" or "personal income tax bill notice".  I'm assuming is the latter but I just wanted to make sure.  Thanks!

Hi, I have the same question. I've received a "State Income Tax Balance Due Notice" that I I still have a balance. I'm trying to pay for it online with credit card. Which Payment Type should I select?

HI I talked to a tax advisor and she says that it is Bill Notice, for either joint or single filing.   I did this and seem to work.  Fingers cross.

Well you had only 4 choices ... 

 

1) paying on an original tax return balance due

2)  a payment with an extension

3)  an estimated tax payment 

OR 

4) a payment in response to a BILL  ... you have the bill in your hand so that is the only logical choice to make.

thanks; you are correct; for me it was kinda scary to not know exactly 100%.
