Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I would like to pay my quarterly estimated business taxes through the IRS website (https://www.irs.gov/payments). I am a sole proprietor married filing jointly.  

 

Is it best to make these payments through EFTPS (Electronic Federal Tax Payment System) for businesses or through direct pay?

If you are just paying personal quarterly estimates you can use either system  however if you are paying payroll taxes you must use the EFTPS system.

 

Is it best to use my SSN or EIN?  Again depends on what you are paying ... if you are paying quarterly estimates you use the SS# but payroll uses the EIN.

 

Must I also submit 1040-ES vouchers when paying online?  NO
