TurboTax error FPYMT-072-01 indicates an IRS rejection because the requested electronic payment date is invalid, usually because it's too far in the past or after the filing deadline. To resolve it, re-submit the return with the direct debit payment date set to the current date or a date within the allowed range (not after 4/15/2026).

Yes! This is happening to me right now. But if 4/15 is the due date, why would my returns be rejected? I don't know how to adjust this. So I just tried e-filing again. I selected the "File Now, Pay Later" option (3-month installments) and all payments were scheduled to pull on the 15th of the month. I didn't see where I'd be able to "edit" the date of these payments. Could someone help?

IRS rejection code FPYMT-072-01 occurs when the Requested Payment Date for an electronic tax payment is scheduled for a date after the tax return's due date. You can tell TurboTax you will mail a check and then pay at the IRS pay site to resolve the error.

I'm having the same issue. I chose the pay in 3 option and am hesitant to select it again since I've already accepted the File Now Pay later loan. As the person stated earlier, I don't see where I have the option to change the date.
