I know this question was asked a few years ago, but I was searching for the same answer. Unfortunately TurboTax 2022 gives the impression that a payment date can be selected when paying by credit card. It automatically chose April 15th (2023) as the payment date when I selected the credit card option for my Federal return, but that is a Saturday and we have until the April 18th this year to pay. I changed the payment day to April 17th, 2023. TurboTax even showed me the "review" screen for me to approve before submitting my choice. It showed a payment day of April 17th, 2023. The only advisory given by the application was in regards to the service fee. It did not advise that the payment would be made immediately. I was not happy when my credit card got hit immediate after submitting my eFile two and a half months before tax deadline. I also experienced credit card frauds within a couple of days of this payment being processes. Coincidence? Probably, but still suspicious. My credit card should not have been immediately charged for my Federal return without providing me an explicit warning that would occur when using the pay by credit card option, especially when providing me the option to select and even verify the payment date.
