Notice to Individual Taxpayers:

As of November 13th, 2026, Individuals can no longer make or modify payments via EFTPS.gov. If you are an individual taxpayer and are NOT enrolled in EFTPS.gov, you'll need to create an IRS Online Account for Individuals or use the IRS Direct Pay guest path. For existing enrolled individuals, the website will remain active to allow Individual taxpayers to login and see their Payment History and, they will be able to CANCEL a Scheduled payment.

What You Need to Know

Important Notice for Individual Taxpayers:
If you are an individual taxpayer (i.e., paying taxes for yourself rather than for a business or on behalf of another entity), IRS Direct Pay and IRS Online Account for Individuals are available for making tax payments.

Effective November 13th, 2026, all individual taxpayers will be required to use either IRS Direct Pay or IRS Online Account for Individuals to make their tax payments. You must create an account to make a payment through IRS Online Account. An enrollment is not required for IRS Direct Pay.

If you currently use EFTPS to make your tax payments, we encourage you to transition to IRS Direct Pay or IRS Online Account for Individuals in advance to become familiar with the system.

For more information, visit IRS Direct Pay or IRS Online Account for Individuals.
The IRS continues to remind taxpayers to watch out for email schemes. Taxpayers will only receive an email from EFTPS if they have opted in for email notifications when they sign up for email through EFTPS. Report all unsolicited email claiming to be from the IRS or an IRS-related function to phishing@irs.gov.
You must be enrolled to use the EFTPS® tax payment service. To enroll, click on Enrollment at the top of this page and follow the steps. If this is your first time enrolling in EFTPS®, your information will need to be validated with the IRS. After this process is complete you will receive a personal identification number (PIN) via U.S. Mail in five to seven business days at your IRS address of record.
Payments using this Web site or our voice response system must be scheduled by 8 p.m. ET the day before the due date to be received timely by the IRS. The funds will move out of your banking account on the date you select for settlement.
This EFTPS® tax payment service Web site supports Microsoft EDGE for Windows, Google Chrome for Windows and Mozilla Firefox for Windows.
You may use this Web site and our voice response system (1.800.555.3453) interchangeably to make payments.
If you are required to make deposits electronically but do not wish to use the EFTPS® tax payment service yourself, ask your financial institution about ACH Credit or same-day wire payments, or consult a tax professional or payroll provider about making payments for you. Please note: These options may result in fees from the providers. Payments through third parties may have earlier cutoff times; please check with them for their deadlines.
