IRS payment site crashes hours before Tax Day filing deadline
The “Direct Pay” page, where filers can wire money from a bank account to pay their tax bill, crashes on Tax Day.

The “Payment Plan” page, where filers can pay their tax bill in installments also appears to have crashed.

I’m a jerk. I always owe at the end of the year and I always mail in my returns via snail mail. :)

I’ll do it for as long as I can.

[max americana]

dont these clowns know there is something called ‘FILING EXTENSION’?

I’m to see my accountant tonight and in the past 10 years did file an extension 4 times. No biggie. an email to the IRS is already accepted.

I used the old stand in line at the Post Office method.

10 min for 4 certified envelopes.

fourth in line.

Is this due, in large measure, to Koskinen’s approval of illegal aliens “borrowing” legitimate SSNs in order to “legally” file a return?

Russian bots?
Isn’t that the answer to everything?

Tried to file a 990-N for my music ministry this morning and ran into the same problem. Fortunately, I have another month. Of course, it IS the government...

[Snowybear]

I had to mail mine in for the first time in years yesterday. I kept getting rjected because by AGI didn’t match 2016, the only problem is it DID match.

[mlo]

Nothing like waiting until the last minute, eh?

[JimRed]

Oh, so THAT is why there were seventeen people in line at the post office today, when the missus asked me to drop off a couple of retuned items!

[Mikey_1962]

I filed Feb 9th. So far nada. “Still bring processed”

[hadaclueonce]

Entire System has been broke for years.

[McGruff]

Dam, I E-Filed this morning and it worked. I demand a refile.

[Abby4116]

I e-filed last night. It was accepted at 2:24 am today. Was going to use direct payment online until I read the disclaimer and decided I did not want to give the IRS access to my bank account until I notified them in writing to revoke it so I mailed a check with the voucher this morning. I also mailed my state return today.

The people/preparers who are panicking could just take an envelope and stamp and be done with the problem.

[dan on the right]

The filing system might be broke, but they remembered to debit my account for my taxes due!

Very efficient.

IRS needs to be abolished and many of its administrators thrown in prison with no pension and hefty fines. POTUS Trump and the MAJORITY GOP was the last hope that this could possibly occur. As we know now, it will never happen. The Left always has the last laugh while giving America the finger.
