Balance Due, 1099-V & IRS mailing Address?

[drennman]

I pay any taxes due via the IRS payment system.  

I have a balance due this year.  TT defaults to creating a 1099-V.  This in turn causes TT to instruct me to mail the return to an IRS address that is only for when you are sending a paper check with your return (which I am not). 

From the IRS website I see that when not sending a check, I need to send my return to a different address than the one instructed by TT.

Is there a way to tell TT I am not sending a paper check?  It seems to me sending a check-less, balance-due return to address that expects paper checks might cause some issue when there is no check enclosed? Or does the mail-to address matter?

(Yes, this year I am sending paper forms as last year e-file was a nightmare and I still had to send some paper forms.  So if I have to send paper forms, I might as well save the trouble and mail the whole thing. 🙂)  

Thanks for help and hints!

I would send it to the IRS address for when a balance is due. You can still pay online and it will match up.

Note that the IRS uses the words "enclosing a payment".

Thanks ee-ea.  That's what I saw as well.  The addresses are split between including a check and not.  The language is precise.

Nickeye, I do think some time ago, the addresses were split between owing money and not owing.    

So I will send to the "not enclosing a check" address. 

Thanks again both.
