The IRS has not taken my bank payment. How can I make sure my payment information is correct?

When will my tax payment go through?

During non-peak times, funds are usually withdrawn on the payment date you specify, assuming your e-filed return has already been accepted (received) by the IRS.

If that date happens to fall on a weekend or federal holiday, the funds are typically withdrawn the next business day.

Now, if you filed right before (or on) the busy April 18 deadline, the IRS may not be able to debit your payment until after the deadline, due to high e-filing volume. In addition, it can take your bank another few days to post the debit to your account.

No worries; as long as you filed your return or extension on or before April 18 and you selected April 18 (or earlier) as your payment date, you won't get penalized for late payment.

In the meantime, keep an eye on your bank account – if you still don't see the debit 7-10 days after your return has been accepted, call IRS e-file Payment Services at 1-888-353-4537 or contact your state tax agency, as appropriate.

**** Make sure you set up the payment correctly ****

Check the printout or PDF of your return; look for the federal and state filing instruction sheet with the Turbotax logo. 

If you owed tax, they will show the payment information and how you decided to pay.  

>If you indicated pay by mail, then you need to mail in a check.  

>If you selected credit card, it will probably be processed in a couple of days.  

>If you selected debit from your bank account, that information is passed on to the state and IRS and they will do the debit when they process your return information -- usually 1-3 weeks for e-file and 3-4 weeks if mailed in.  

> If you also owe the state ... read the state payment instructions carefully since most states cannot be paid from within the TT system and requires additional steps. https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1900884-what-are-my-options-for-getting-my-state-refund-or-for-paying-any-state-taxes-i-owe

Will I accrue interest or penalty if I filed my return and paid any money owed prior to the deadline but the IRS debits my account after the deadline? 

Mine is taking a while too and hasn't been debited from my account.

I have spoken to the IRS and they told me if they do not take the money from my account on or before May 17, 2021 I will have to pay a penalty and owe interest on the payment - even though I asked the IRS via TurboTax to take the payment from my checking account on April 8, 2021 - and money is STILL in the account.

I am having the same issue. Accepted by State and IRS on April 5th . The state took it out but the IRS still has not debited my account.

Same here, accepted on 4/3 still haven't taken the payment.

If the IRS has not yet taken your payment, please post the date they Accepted your return (per the email you got from TurboTax) and today's date (the date you're posting). The IRS accepted my return on April 7th; as of April 19th, no attempt to debit my bank. But the State of Maryland took their money from that account on April 12th.

My taxes (filed through Turbotax) were accepted on April 13th, for the last few years IRS used to deduct my account within 2 days of the payment date; this year even after 7 working days, they have not withdrawn the money. I checked my payment information and all is correct.
