Use IRS Direct Pay to make free one time federal tax payments

The IRS recently announced that taxpayers could now make free one time federal tax payments using Direct Pay.  There are no fees and no complicated registration requirements to use this service.  It can be used for balances due or estimated tax payments.  This promises to be an excellent alternative to the time consuming and sometimes complicated registration process for making payments using EFTPS.

We typically recommend that clients allow Tax On Wheels, LLC to set up an automatic draft from your checking account when we transmit the return to the IRS.  But this is not always a viable option for taxpayers still trying to make arrangements for paying over the funds to the IRS.  Now you can pay when it is most convenient for you and your pocketbook.

This is a nice little tool.  Who says the IRS is not user friendly?
