When
will my tax payment go through?
(If you’re filing your
taxes on April 15 and are having direct debit issues, go here.)
During non-peak times,
funds are usually withdrawn on the payment date you specify, assuming your
e-filed return has already been accepted (received) by the IRS.
If that date happens to
fall on a weekend or federal holiday, the funds are typically withdrawn the
next business day.
Now, if you filed right
before (or on) the busy April 15, 2019 deadline, the IRS may not be able to
debit your payment until after the deadline, due to high e-filing volume. In
addition, it can take your bank another few days to post the debit to your
account.
No worries; as long as you
filed your return or extension on or before April 15, 2019 and you selected
April 15, 2019 (or earlier) as your payment date, you won't get penalized for
late payment.
In the meantime, keep an
eye on your bank account — if you still don't see the debit 7–10 days after
your return has been accepted, call IRS e-file Payment Services at
1-888-353-4537 or contact
your state tax agency, as appropriate.
