Can I efile california and pay what I owe with a credit card?

Can I efile California and pay what I owe with a credit card in TurboTax Home and Business desktop?

 

TurboTax is only giving me option to pay using ACH direct debit? 

 

I want to use my credit card to pay.

 

How can I still efile in TurboTax and pay with credit card on the Franchise Tax Board website?

Tell the program you will mail a check so nothing is sent to CA. Then, pay on their website.

Will it still allow me to efile if I tell TurboTax that I am paying with a check?

Yes, you can pay your tax bill by check and still e-file your tax returns. Once you get to the filing section, TurboTax will ask you a series of questions regarding how you want to file and pay your tax bill. For more information, please review the TurboTax article How to Pay Taxes: 10 Ways to Pay Your Tax Bill.
