1. I have an additional $40 charge because I hit the option to pay my deluxe federal and state ($80) to my refund. I didn’t get a refund though so it told me I can’t do that so now instead of paying $80 I need to pay $120 just for getting the message I can’t have the $80 added onto the tax due. Is there a way to remove that $40 charge?

2. This is my first time having to pay taxes to the irs can I make payments instead of just paying it all before April 15th 2021 before a late fee is assessed?

Can I switch to paper-filing and back to e-filing to remove the fee. Also what about the second question? @DoninGA

You can use the IRS payment website to make any amount of payment you want to for the federal taxes owed. As long as the total of the taxes owed is paid on or before April 15, 2021 - https://www.irs.gov/payments

If you do go that route, then when asked for how you want to pay the federal taxes owed choose the pay with check option and then e-file your tax return. You would not send a check if you are paying on the IRS website.
