TAXBILLY Posted September 3, 2007 Report Posted September 3, 2007 Can a 1040-ES be filed electronically? I have a client in Mexico that doesn't trust the mail. taxbilly Quote
bstaxes Posted September 3, 2007 Report Posted September 3, 2007 Don't know, but that is an interesting question. If you can file an extension electronically with a payment why not an estimated form with payment? It would save last minute runs to the post office and at the same time give preparers more work. I am not sure if I would like to be responsible for the clients estimated payments getting to the government on time. Quote

Lion EA Posted September 3, 2007 Report Posted September 3, 2007 Well, that worked just fine. I love it when that happens. And, the link was just the first one I spotted on the IRS site, one about the telephone tax refund, I think; so you don't need to click on it re this thread's topic. Hope I didn't confuse anyone. Just wanted to test inserting a link in a post. Hope you all had a great long weekend. Quote
TAXBILLY Posted September 4, 2007 Author Report Posted September 4, 2007 Glad I could help. taxbilly Quote
Kenneth Posted September 23, 2007 Report Posted September 23, 2007 Yes you can file form 1040-ES electronically. You make the payment with a credit card. The website will send you a confirmation which you can printout on your system. You also can make State estimates electronically. Quote
