    Don’t forget your state. And you will have to print and mail your returns.  So be sure to attach copies of your W2s and any 1099s that have withholding on them.  You have to mail federal and state in separate envelopes because they go to different places.  Get a tracking number from the post office when you mail them for proof of filing.

    " How do i pay for my taxes?"

    Are you asking how to pay your tax due?  You can mail in a check or money order with the 1040V voucher that will print out with your tax return; You can indicate an account for a direct debit for the IRS to pull the payment from; you can pay online at the IRS site.

    Or are you asking how to pay TurboTax for the use of the software?  You will have to pay TurboTax using a credit/debit card.  It is too late to e-file and have the fees taken out of your federal refund.

     

    If you owe tax due, then file and pay the amount due as shown on the Form 1040, but expect a bill later from the IRS for the penalty and interest you will owe.  Only the IRS will calculate this—TurboTax will not calculate it.

     

     

    Your 2018 return must be printed, signed and mailed now.  It cannot be e-filed.

     

    When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s.  Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.
