Making Tax Payments
Timely tax payments help you avoid costly penalties, interest charges, and potential enforcement actions from the IRS or state tax authorities. Late or missed payments can also result in the loss of good standing with tax agencies, which can impact your ability to obtain financing, licenses, or government contracts.
Whether it’s estimated taxes, payroll tax deposits, or balances due with a return, consistent and timely payments are a critical part of maintaining financial health and compliance. We recommend scheduling payments in advance whenever possible and using electronic payment methods such as ACH to ensure accuracy and avoid delays.
