Taxes: Making payments

It's your responsibility to make sure that sufficient funds are available in your bank account when your payroll taxes are due. We do not set up a tax impound account on your behalf with the required amounts on reserve for tax payments. 

We remind you when tax payments are due and how much you owe. We remind you by email, on the To Do page, and on the Pay Taxes page.

To make a tax payment:

If you're signed up for our electronic services 

  1. Go here.
    (Or choose Taxes & Forms > Pay Taxes.)
  2. For the tax you want to pay, click Create Payment.

    If the tax you want to pay no longer appears on the Pay Taxes page, see recording a tax payment for a prior tax period.

  3. Click Approve.You must submit all electronic tax payments no later than 5 pm PT two banking days before the payment date.
    • Electronic federal tax payment: The IRS directly withdraws the funds from your bank account on the payment date.
    • Electronic state tax payment: Electronic processing times can vary from state to state. For most states, you must approve e-payments by 5 pm PT, two banking days before the payment date. Others require approval three or five banking days before the payment date.

      Intuit Online Payroll reminds you when your payment is due, so be sure to check your Intuit Online Payroll To Do list and your email reminders for the e-payment cutoff date and time.
  4. To verify your tax payment: Go here.
    (Or choose Reports and then under Employer Reports, click Tax Payments.)
