Additional Tax Payment Options are Needed - Problem? or Improvement!

I dealing with 2022 taxes and there are taxes due.  I have noticed that in the payment options page when going through the TurboTax Review that Turbo Tax is not offering payment options that cover current available options.

 

All users and myself in the past have the option to use the EFTPS payment system of the government.   If we elect to make the tax payment due with EFTPS, then that option does not show in the list of payment options list.

 

In 2022 taxes I have selected I will pay by check, but I actually will not, because I have paid by EFTPS.  I really don't want to select the direct debit payment option because I don't want my account numbers on my tax form.   So, I feel that TurboTax needs to ADD AN ADDITIONAL PAYMENT OPTION TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS SITUATION.

     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.

    Your input is all valid and might help others.

     

    But the point here is the interview process in Turbo Tax requires a payment option selection to proceed and there is NO option for the user to indicate that they are paying directly to the IRS with the EFTPS system.
