"Tax due" that you owe to the IRS or state is not the same as what you might owe to TurboTax for using the software.   Tax due is what you need to pay to the IRS or state by April 15, 2025.

 

If you owe the IRS, the amount owed is on line 37 of your Form 1040.   If you owe the state, it will be somewhere near the bottom of the state form---but we do not know what state you have.

 

 

Your TurboTax fees are what you have to pay to TT for the use of the software to prepare your tax returns.

How can I see my TurboTax  fees?

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.
