1. Call the IRS payment department at 800-316-6541to speak with a human and get your account straightened out. I am assuming you are looking at your online account. When you make a payment, you choose what it goes toward, the IRS may have had an issue at just that moment to put your payment in the wrong spot.
2. To continue forward with your tax return, enter the amount as intended, an estimated payment.
