    Look at your Form 1040.   If you are getting a federal refund it is on line 35a.

    If you owe federal tax it is on line 37.

     

    There will not be amounts on both lines---one or the other.

     

    PREVIEW 1040

    If you owe tax due, you have to pay it yourself by the filing deadline on April 15, 2025.

     

     

     If you have federal tax due you can pay by mailing your payment with the 1040V voucher, (which has the address printed on it, having the payment taken out of a designated bank account, or you can pay directly on the IRS website.

    You must pay your state tax due using the state’s preferred method of receiving payment.  For most states that will be by making a payment to the state’s own tax website, or by mailing a check or money order.
