2. Use a money order: You can purchase a money order from a post office, bank, or other financial institution. Make sure it's made payable to the "United States Treasury."
3. Fill out the payment voucher: If you're paying a specific tax bill or making a payment for a specific tax year, you'll need to fill out Form 1040-V, Payment Voucher. You can download and print the form from the IRS website or request one by calling the IRS at 1-800-829-1040.
4. Write the payment information: On the money order, write the following information:
   • Your name and address
   • The amount of the payment
   • The payment voucher number (if applicable)
   • The words "United States Treasury" or "IRS"
5. Attach the payment voucher (if applicable): If you're using a payment voucher, attach it to the money order.
