Electronic Payment Filing Instructions

Mandatory Electronic Payments (e-pay) - Taxpayers are required to remit all payments electronically once they make any estimate or extension payment exceeding $20,000 or they file an original return with a total tax liability over $80,000 for any taxable year that begins on or after January 1, 2009. Once this threshold has been met, all other payments regardless of amount or tax type must also be remitted electronically. Taxpayers who do not submit their payments electronically may be subject to a 1% noncompliance penalty. The default is to use electronic payment language in letters and filing instructions for all payments in the return if any payment qualifies.

Businesses cannot make withholding payments through Web Pay.

This option allows user to suppress instructions for electronic payment, or to force such instructions if not otherwise required. For more information, or to request a waiver from mandatory e-pay, go to Franchise Tax Board's website www.ftb.ca.gov and search for mandatory epay.
