How can I pay my taxes to the California Franchise Tax Board (FTB)?

When making a payment to the IRS, you can choose from several convenient methods:

• Electronic Funds Withdrawal (EFW):

This option allows you to pay directly from your bank account at the time of e-filing. It’s fast, secure, and doesn’t require any additional steps after filing. You’ll need to provide your bank routing and account numbers.

• Payment Voucher (Form 1040-V or applicable form):

If you prefer to pay by check or money order, you can mail your payment along with a completed payment voucher. Be sure to include your taxpayer information on both the check and the voucher to ensure proper crediting. Mail your payment to the address listed on the voucher instructions.

• Credit or Debit Card:

You can pay your tax due using a credit or debit card through one of the IRS-approved third-party payment processors. These services may charge a processing fee. Payments can be made online, by phone, or through a mobile device.
