1040-V Tax Form
Form 1040-V, Payment Voucher is the payment voucher for federal income taxes. If you’ve paid taxes with a money order or check order, file Form 1040-V and attach it to your tax return. Although you have other options to pay taxes and these are perhaps more convenient, a payment voucher is necessary for any balance due.
How to fill out 1040-V?
Now that we’ve covered what Form 1040-V is, here is what to do when filling out the form to attach to your federal income tax return. Form 1040-V is pretty straightforward as you only need to detail your personal information such as name, SSN, and address. After entering these, you’ll need to enter your payment amount in dollars and cents.
Since this is for mailed-in returns, the mailing address in which you’re going to mail your federal income tax return will be different than the tax returns sent without payment. See the Form 1040 mailing addresses on our instructions to file.
If you’ve paid taxes after you mailed your return to the IRS, use the following addresses according to your state of residence.

Last day to pay taxes
The deadline to pay taxes has been moved up by the Internal Revenue Service along with the filing deadline. For the 2023 taxes you’ll pay in 2024, the last day to pay is May 17, not April 15. Make sure the taxes are paid by this deadline so you don’t incur late payment penalties. The late payment penalty is 5 percent of the unpaid tax amount for every month or partial month the balance due.
