You should have options to pay your Federal tax at checkout.  If you are not seeing these options to pay your taxes, you should try logging out of the program and logging back in. You can also clear your cache and cookies.

You can pay your federal tax due in TurboTax as follows:

  1. Direct Debit from your checking or savings account
  2. Credit/Debit Card through a third-party payment processor
  3. Pay by check. You would select "Pay by Check or money order" and mail the check or money order to the IRS with Form 1040-V. TurboTax will prepare Form 1040-V for you to use.
  4. Cash. You can use  the IRS website for info on its retail partners.
  5. Payment Plan See our article on paying your federal tax debt in monthly payments.
