After you file

@buchanan_brent You posted to another thread and in that one you say you are not getting a refund, but that you owe tax due.   Not sure why you are waiting to see that something has been "approved" if you owe.   Nothing is going to show up on the IRS refund site if you owe tax due.  You do not have to wait for approval in order to pay your tax due----you were supposed to pay by April 15, 2025.    If you have not yet paid the amount shown on line 37 of your Form 1040, do so asap----you are already late and will be subject to owing interest on the late amount owed.

 

If you owe tax due, you have to pay it yourself by the filing deadline on April 15, 2025.

 

 

 If you have federal tax due you can pay by mailing your payment with the 1040V voucher, (which has the address printed on it, having the payment taken out of a designated bank account, or you can pay directly on the IRS website.

You must pay your state tax due using the state’s preferred method of receiving payment.  For most states that will be by making a payment to the state’s own tax website, or by mailing a check or money order.
