Where do I enter the amount I paid with my federal extension?

Enter the amount you paid with your extension by visiting:

1. Federal Section
2. Payments and Estimates 
3. Amount Paid with Extension

Do I need to record this if I filed my Extension using another service provider?

Whether you mailed your payment with Form 4868, paid by debit/credit card directly with the IRS, or had your payment electronically withdrawn with your filing extension request, you will need to record the amount you paid with your extension on your tax return. 

Note: An Application for Extension of time to file your return is ONLY an extension of time to file.  All payments owed to the IRS are still due by the April deadline before penalties and interest will begin to accrue.

Filing your extension at the same time?

If you are filing your extension AND making a payment at the same time, you will also need to complete the application for the extension. 

• Federal Section
• Miscellaneous Forms
• Application for Automatic Extension of Time to File- complete extension information
• GO TO EXTENSION PAYMENT-  Enter payment information (if you wish to make an electronic payment)
• E-file extension
