how to pay quarterly taxes “ONLINE” (much easier once you know how): IRS estimated taxes direct pay

Change is always difficult, and the website is not particularly easy to navigate, but it is much faster and easier and cheaper to pay the quarterly taxes online. It’s nice because you get instant feedback that everything worked. If you go through the mail you have to wait for your certified return receipt to come back. Once you’ve used the online method a few times, you'll get more familiar with their system and it’ll run a little smoother.

This is so helpful. I'm a new business owner and all this stuff is very intimidating. I want to get ahead of my taxes not fall behind so learning taxes plus all the other duties that demand my attention all has been a headache and nightmare. I'll rest a little better now knowing I now have the information and knowledge to get ahead of all these apparent obligations😒

Thank you live free! Finally paid my 4 months late 2nd quarter estimated taxes thanks to your video! Did not feel like hiring a tax person to do it for me like last time so I did not pay.... but I finally did now. Thanks again

Thanks for the help here in 2024! I was thrown off by the “verification year” field. I thought it would apply the payment to that year. Thanks for clearing that up!

[freethinker]

Simple and straight to the point! Thank you because this was stressing me tf out!! lol

[MELISSA-rpwy]

this would be my first time having to do quarterly payments because this is my first year being self employed so what exactly would choosing a past tax year do for me???

[joehumeas]

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but do we need to pay federal estimated tax payments and state estimated tax payments? Or do we just pay one (4 times a year)? I assume you paid the federal estimated tax in the video to irs.gov. Do we also need to pay State estimated tax?

Thank you for this very informative walk through! This was Devine timing for me seeing this, indeed! Thank you, thank you!!

Can I make an estimated payment if I've never filed a tax return?
