Name of the Bank: Taxpayers must be aware of the Bank name from where the tax amount has to be debited.
Bank Account Number: The account number can be up to 17 digits. Omit hyphens, spaces, and special symbols. Enter the number from left to right and leave any unused boxes blank. On the sample check below, the account number is 20202086. Do not to include the check number.
Type of Account: Taxpayers must identify the type of account from which the payment is to be made (checking or savings). The type of account can either be savings or checking.

• Taxpayers must know their financial institution’s routing transit number and account number.
• Taxpayers must identify the type of account from which the payment is to be made (checking or savings).
• The routing transit number and account number are usually located at the bottom of checks and share drafts.
• Taxpayers should check with their financial institution regarding questions on these numbers and to confirm that the financial institution will allow an electronic withdrawal from the specified account.  The majority of rejected payments are due to issues with the routing transit number and/or account number.

Note: Electronic funds withdrawals cannot be initiated after the return or form is filed.

3.      Check or Money Order:

Taxpayers who pay by check or money order should make the payment out to the “United States Treasury.” Write your name, address, EIN, “Form 2290,” and the date you actually file your return on your payment check or money order.  Also, include Form 2290-V, Payment Voucher, along with the payment and tax return. If you have already submitted your tax return but still need to pay all or some of the balance, you may mail the check or money order to the IRS with Form 22900-V.
