No, your tax return(s) won't be rejected because you did not pay the taxes due. As a matter of fact, the IRS wants you to file your tax return even if you can't pay the taxes you owe to avoid late filing or non-filing penalties.

 

Try to pay before the IRS deadline, which has been extended to May 17, 2021.

 

Per IRS: In general, you may owe an IRS underpayment penalty, for 2020, if the total of your withholding and timely estimated tax payments didn't equal at least the smaller of:

  1. 90% of your 2020 tax, or
  2. 100% of your 2019 tax. Your 2019 tax return must cover a 12-month period.
