You cannot pay your TurboTax fees with PayPal. See the following FAQ.

It says Turbotax accepts PayPal but there's actually no such option.  It's odd.

@cindysunny  What is "it" that says TurboTax accepts PayPal for the TurboTax fees? Can you post a link or a screen shot?

I think you need a paypal CC/Debit card option on your PP account ...

The FAQ link posted above.  Regardless, the payment options in TurboTax also says so but it didn't work.  

How do I pay with PayPal ?

You cannot simply pay with your paypal account ... you must have a paypal CC or debit card with a visa/MC/Disc/Amex logo on it ... I think the FAQ clearly states that information.  When you get to the payment screen those are your choices.  Did you ever set one up ?  https://www.paypal.com/us/home

IMO, there's another way.  Here's how I am going to do it.

When TurboTax asks you to provide a method of payment, I am going to check of "Mail in a check".

After the file is transmitted go to PayUSA taxes and you can use your Paypal Credit card there.  

I used this website to pay an old installment plan every month for 5 years, its excellent with only a small fee.

@Jorgb1111  You are talking about paying federal tax that you owe. This thread is about paying TurboTax fees, not paying tax.

 

And you are still using a PayPal credit card, not a direct PayPal payment.
