IRS payments

[rwm221]

I have a client that paid the IRS $24,000 on April 14th. This was not an estimated payment. When he did the payment online he put it in as a 2025 tax payment. I just did his taxes now. Do I put in the $24,000 on the return or is it sitting in an account at the IRS and will the amount he owes be deducted from that.

My guess is that the IRS will treat it like he requested: A tax year 2025 payment.

I believe you are doing his 2025 taxes that he had an extension for. Don't know what software you are using, but you need to put somewhere that your client paid the 2025 taxes on 4/14/25
