I have to pay my IRS taxes when I am using Turbo tax? I would like to know how Turbotax works? . IS the charge just for the preparation of taxes? How do I pay my taxes?

Do i pay Turbo Tax separately than I pay my IRS Taxes

Yes you pay TurboTax its fees for using the software to prepare your tax return.  You can pay TT by using a credit card, or by having the fees deducted from your federal refund by a third party bank (for an extra fee.)

Then, if you owe federal or state tax due, you pay the IRS or your state for the tax you owe:

 

 If you have federal tax due you can pay by mailing your payment with the 1040V voucher, (which has the address printed on it, having the payment taken out of a designated bank account, or you can pay directly on the IRS website.

You must pay your state tax due using the state’s preferred method of receiving payment.  For most states that will be by making a payment to the state’s own tax website, or by mailing a check or money order.
