How do I pay taxes electronically?

You can make an Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) of money from one inancial institution to another through 
either ACH Debit or ACH Credit.

ACH (Automated Clearing House) is a nationwide network used by the Federal Reserve to handle electronic 
payments. Electronic payments are a safe and eficient way to make tax payments.

What are ACH Debit and ACH Credit?

When you use ACH Debit, you authorize how much and when the state can take money from your bank account 
to pay your taxes.

When you use ACH Credit, you tell your bank how much and when to send money to the state to pay your 
taxes.

How much does it cost?

ACH Debit is free. 

ACH Credit fees vary, depending on your bank. Some banks offer software that allows you to initiate your own 
payments from your computer.
