ELECTRONIC FEDERAL TAX PAYMENT SYSTEM
FINANCIAL INSTITUTION HANDBOOK
Your guide to federal tax payment services.
This handbook is designed to help you assist business and individual customers with their federal
tax payments.
The Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS), a free service of the U.S. Department of the
Treasury, can be used to pay any federal tax. EFTPS is the world’s largest tax collection system and
includes phone and Internet options.
Federal taxes may also be paid via Fedwire
®
. Since fees are involved, this option is typically used
as a backup for ACH transactions or when a taxpayer needs to make a deposit on the due date.

CUSTOMER-INITIATED PAYMENTS
The Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS) provides convenient, free ACH Debit services 24/7, 365 days a year. Your
customers can schedule their own payments via EFTPS.gov or with the EFTPS voice response system if they have enrolled.
Payments must be scheduled by 8 p.m. ET the day before the due date for timely receipt by the Internal Revenue
Service (IRS).
PLEASE NOTE: Customers cannot use your basic online bill payment service to initiate an e-payment or e-check payable
to Treasury or the IRS for tax payments.
HOW EFTPS MAKES TAX PAYMENTS EASIER
1 Business customers can schedule payments up to 365 days in advance
2 Individuals can schedule payments up to 365 days in advance
3 Up to sixteen months of payment history can be viewed online
4 U.S.-based, live support is available 24/7 at:
1.800.555.4477 (English)
1.800.244.4829 (Spanish)
ENROLLMENT OPTIONS
ONLINE:
Step-by-step enrollment is available at EFTPS.gov. Enrolled customers will receive their Personal Identification Number
(PIN) in the mail within seven business days.
Go to EFTPS.gov and click on “Log In.” Click on “Need a Password.” Customers will then enter their EIN or SSN and PIN.
They will verify their banking information or EFTPS enrollment number and then create their Internet password.
MAIL:
Customers who complete a paper EFTPS enrollment form (IRS Form 9779 for businesses; Form 9783 for individuals),
and mail it in will receive their PIN within two weeks after EFTPS receives the form. Customers can order forms by calling
the IRS 1.800.829.3676. The forms will be received in 7 to 15 days.
NOTE
If a customer doesn’t receive a PIN and two weeks has passed, advise him or her to call EFTPS Customer Service:
1.800.555.4477 (English)
1.800.244.4829 (Spanish)

PAYMENTS
To schedule a payment, customers will be prompted to provide:
1 The type and amount of each payment
2 The date the payment is due:
• Business and individual payments may be scheduled up to 365 days in advance
All payments must be scheduled by 8 p.m. ET the day before the due date to be considered timely by the IRS.
After completing each transaction, customers will receive an Acknowledgment Number.
FAILED EFTPS PAYMENTS
Financial institutions may return a payment for a variety of reasons. For example, customers with insufficient
funds in their accounts will receive a failed payment.
After receiving their PIN, customers may schedule payments at EFTPS.gov or via the
telephone voice response system.

ACH CREDIT FOR BUSINESS PAYMENTS
Some business customers may ask you to initiate tax payments on their behalf with ACH Credit, as this option is included
in the EFTPS enrollment process. These customers will need to be enrolled in EFTPS to be eligible for ACH Credit.
Financial institutions offering this optional service typically transmit these payments to EFTPS using third-party software
or services.
There is no requirement from Treasury that you initiate ACH Credit payments for your customers.
PLEASE NOTE: If you are interested in exploring this option, be aware that acquiring and setting up such software
or services may take a few months.
SETTING UP ACH CREDIT TAX PAYMENT SERVICES
EFTPS must receive your customers’ ACH Credit tax payments by 2:15 a.m. ET on the due date. Please contact your
local Federal Reserve Bank to confirm ACH deadlines.
• Ensure that payments are directed to EFTPS—not the IRS—for posting by the tax due date
• Provide customers with an Acknowledgment of Receipt so they can verify on-time tax payments
online or by phone
Details of record formats required for EFTPS ACH Credit payments can be found on pp. 4–7 of this handbook.
DELAYED ACH CREDIT
You may be held responsible for a late tax payment if:
1 A customer has provided instructions for an ACH Credit payment before the due date
2 Your institution does not send the payment on time
ACH Credit liability for a financial institution is somewhat different from liability for ACH Debit. With ACH Credit, if the
customer can prove the instructions were delivered to the financial institution by its deadline and the payment was not
sent, the IRS may abate the customer’s penalty. Treasury may also make a value-of-funds adjustment on the financial
institution due to the delay. Please review your ACH agreements to make sure you have provisions and clauses regarding
penalties, both to you and your customers.
For further assistance, contact the EFTPS Financial Institution Helpline at 1.800.605.9876.
NOTE
Taxpayers are ultimately responsible for timely payment of their taxes. Treasury strongly encourages all taxpayers to enroll in
the EFTPS ACH Debit option as well so that they may use the EFTPS.gov or voice response system in case of a circumstance
such as an outage within your system or a natural calamity that renders your service unusable when taxes are due.

must be received by the Federal Tax Collection Service (FTCS) by 5 p.m. ET on the due date to be timely with the IRS.
Please be sure your own deadline is earlier so you have time to prepare the wires. Payments cannot be warehoused;
if the liability is known at least one day in advance, the payment should be made via ACH Debit or Credit.
PLEASE NOTE: Same-day tax wires are intended only for extraordinary circumstances in which a payment cannot be
scheduled earlier. Wire fees may be applied and passed on to your customers. Be aware that same-day tax wires are
used primarily by businesses; except in the case of very large dollar amounts, individuals have the option of sending
a check with their return to the IRS if the envelope is postmarked on the tax due date.
REFERENCE NUMBERS
Treasury regulations require you to provide customers with the following two numbers for proof of payment if requested:
1 The Input Message Accountability Data (IMAD) number assigned by the Fedwire system
2 The 15-digit Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) number assigned by the FTCS
If the reference numbers are needed, contact FTCS at 1.800.382.0045 or 1.314.425.1810
Customers enrolled in EFTPS may access this information after the payment date through EFTPS.gov
or by calling EFTPS at 1.800.555.4477
PROCESSING DEADLINES
Fedwire operations begin at 9 p.m. ET (for the next business day)
FTCS processing hours are from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET
Same-day transactions sent before 8:30 a.m. ET are queued for processing when FTCS opens for the business day
REJECTED TRANSACTIONS
Payments are rejected if they are received between 5 and 9 p.m. ET
Transactions are also rejected if they contain formatting errors
Rejected transactions are returned via a Fedwire Typecode 1002 wire with an explanation for the rejection
If a same-day payment is rejected and returned, you may correct and resubmit it to FTCS before 5 p.m. ET. Late
transactions may be submitted the next business day but may be subject to IRS penalties.

FEDERAL TAX COLLECTION SERVICE (SAME-DAY WIRE)
NAME CONTROL JOB AID
The name control consists of up to four alpha and/or numeric characters. It can be determined from the
information specified on the first name line. Generally, the name control is derived from the first four characters
of the business name. Self-employed businesses generally use the owner’s name as their legal name so the name
control would be the first four characters of the taxpayer’s last name. An ampersand (&) and hyphen (-) are the only
special characters allowed in the name control. The name control can have fewer but no more than four characters.
Blanks may be present only at the end of the name control.
Note: Do not include “dba” as part of the name control. These initials stand for “doing business as.”
BUSINESS NAME CONTROL VALID CHARACTERS:
Numeric (0-9)
Alpha (A-Z)
Hyphen (-)
Ampersand (&)
SPECIAL BUSINESS NAME CONTROL RULE:
If an invalid character is used in the name line, drop the special character from the taxpayer’s name.
Example: Joe.com should be “JOEC” Another example is 4U.com. The name control should be “4UCO”

FEDERAL TAX COLLECTION SERVICE (SAME-DAY WIRE)
INTERNATIONAL TAX PAYMENTS
Taxpayers living overseas must have a U.S. bank account to use EFTPS. Financial institutions located outside the U.S. may
assist taxpayers with federal tax payments with the help of a Qualified Intermediary.
WHAT IS A QUALIFIED INTERMEDIARY?
A foreign bank, investment firm, or financial institution may apply to the IRS to become a Qualified Intermediary (QI), which
may withhold U.S. federal taxes for taxpayers and assume primary responsibility for paying these taxes with EFTPS.
Typically, this service is provided to:
1 Companies with overseas offices staffed with expatriates from the U.S.
2 Non-U.S. citizens with investments taxed in the U.S.
QIs may also use a SWIFT message to instruct a U.S.-based correspondent financial institution to initiate a Fedwire

TRUSTED PARTNER INTERFACE
Trusted Partner Interface (TPI) is a free public XML schema that is invisibly integrated into a financial institution’s online bill
payment services. It’s a convenient way for your customers to schedule tax payments at the same time as other bill payments.
When customers pay their taxes with TPI, they’ll log in to your Web site and go through the same steps as any other bill
payment to schedule an ACH debit payment. No EFTPS messaging is visible.
TPI:
vices
Offers online enrollment and payment history functionality
Saves time and money
TPI is NOT:
Designed to enable you to schedule tax payments for customers
A replacement for same-day tax payment wires
An interface to make any non-tax payment
An IRS e-File system for transmitting tax forms
The TPI XML schema is provided free to all financial institutions, but internal integration costs will apply. For more information
about TPI, please e-mail [email protected] or call 1.202.874.5350.

IRS TAX FORMS AND TABLES
*
The first four positions of the FI Tax Code (as shown above) are the actual form you are filing in most cases. Example: If you wish to designate your payment for a Form 941 penalty, you would place 94109
in the addenda field TXPO2. If you are paying an amount due on an IRS notice that includes penalty or interest, it is not necessary to split the payment. Use tax type 94107 to pay the entire amount of a
Form 941 notice.
**
Those tax type codes ending in “7” include Installment Agreement payments.
The tax period month must match the company’s fiscal year for these forms.
