I owe taxes but the IRS website says I owe nothing
When I filed, TurboTax told me I was going to owe $500 in taxes. I’ve been checking the IRS website often under “make a payment” and it’s still saying I owe nothing. Isn’t there a deadline when these need to be paid? Am I checking in the right place? I’m starting to get a little worried. Any advice?

The IRS web site won't show how much tax you owe until after they finish processing your tax return. You should pay the amount due that was shown on your tax return now. You don't have to wait until the IRS web site shows that you owe it. The deadline for paying is long past. It was April 18.
Ideally the IRS web site should never show that you owe tax. You pay when you file your tax return, or earlier, and they apply the payment when they process your return.

yes, the deadline to pay was 4/18/2022. we have no way of knowing if you actually owe the $500 or not. the IRS may not have fully processed your return. if your return is fully processed there should be a transcript that can be used to compare to your return line by line to see if there are differences that can account for you not owing. generally, the IRS sends out notices for changes to returns but that could take a while after the return is processed.

I mean, I filed my taxes on time, but I didn’t know I had to pay by a certain time. And There’s no balance on the IRS website nor has there been since I’ve filed. So I’m not sure what to do.

How did you select to pay it? By check or direct debit from you account? Check your return. If you were suppose to send a check it should have printed out a 1040 V payment voucher. The sooner you pay it the interest will stop accruing.
You can pay the IRS directly at
https://www.irs.gov/payments
Or print a blank 1040V voucher

I didn’t know there was an option to pay them on the TurboTax website, cause that’s what I used to file them. Where can I pay my taxes at if the irs website says I have no balance

@Sophiphi98 Look at your Form 1040. Does it show an amount on line 37? If you have an amount on line 37, that is what you owe and should have paid by April 18, 2022----the tax filing and payment deadline

Okay---then where in TurboTax did it say that you owe tax? Do you owe your state? What does it say on your state tax return? Where did you get the idea that you might owe about $500?

Do you have a refund on line 35a? Maybe you owe a state tax due? Check your state return. At the end Turbo Tax shows you the net combined of federal and state but they are separate.
