    We do not know your tax situation.  

     

    TurboTax may believe that you would benefit from enrolling in the EFTPS.  You are not required to enroll in the system.

     

    The Electronic Federal Tax Payment System® (EFTPS) tax payment service is provided free by the U.S. Department of the Treasury. 

     

    After you have enrolled and received your credentials, you can pay any tax due to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) using this system.
