We'd love to help you complete your tax return, but need more information. Can you please clarify your question?

 

Are trying to change how you receive your refund, how you pay your TurboTax fees, or how you pay your taxes?

Change payment method for what exactly, TurboTax account fees, federal taxes owed, state taxes owed?

 

Have you already filed the 2023 tax return?

You should be able to change your payment method for your taxes.  

 

If you set up a direct debit payment in TurboTax, you can cancel it by calling IRS e-file Payment Services at 1-888-353-4537. Cancellation requests must be made no later than 11:59 p.m. ET two business days prior to the scheduled payment date.

 

Once your payment is cancelled, you will need to set up your payment directly with the IRS.  Please see How can I pay my federal taxes?

 

For a state payment, you can most likely make it through your state's tax website, see How do I contact my state Department of Revenue?

If you filed your tax return and have federal taxes owed and were paying with direct debit from your bank account and now want to change the date of payment, you will have to cancel the payment.

 

Go to this IRS website for how to cancel a federal tax payment - https://www.irs.gov/payments/pay-taxes-by-electronic-funds-withdrawal

 

  • Once your return is accepted, information pertaining to your payment, such as account information, payment date, or amount, cannot be changed. If changes are needed, the only option is to cancel the payment and choose another payment method.
  • Call IRS e-file Payment Services 24/7 at 888-353-4537 to inquire about or cancel your payment, but please wait 7 to 10 days after your return was accepted before calling.
  • Cancellation requests must be received no later than 11:59 p.m. ET two business days prior to the scheduled payment date.

After the payment has been cancelled use the IRS payment website to pay the taxes owed - https://www.irs.gov/payments

 

Tax payments made after the due date of the tax return are subject to penalties and interest on the unpaid balance.
