My state tax payment has been deducted on my bank account the day after I efiled. But for my Federal tax payment, It's been 10 days but they haven't deducted my payment from my bank account yet. Is this something to be worried about?

Usually, the IRS will withdraw the amount on the day you selected. If that date happens to fall on a weekend or federal holiday, the funds are typically withdrawn the next business day. But there seems to be some delay with the IRS withdrawing the funds.

 

Please be aware that this year you have until May 17th to pay your balance due. Also, there will be no penalties or interest if the IRS failed to make the debit on time as long as the request was done correctly on a timely filed return. Please see When will my tax payment go through? for additional information.

 

Also, you can view your balance and check your payment activity at IRS Paying Your Taxes.
