Q3 Estimated Tax Payments Are Coming Up

August 24, 2026

Q3 estimated tax payments will be due soon, on September 15. If you need to make a payment, we recommend paying electronically through IRS Direct Pay, EFTPS, or your IRS Online Account. For state payments, most states also offer online tax accounts where you can make payments, view your balance, and keep track of payment history.

Electronic payment is quick, easy to document, and provides confirmation for your records. Before submitting, double-check the amount, tax year, and payment type.

Mailing a check? Take it to a staffed post office and use Certified Mail. This gives you proof of the mailing date and can help avoid questions if postal processing is delayed.

Whenever possible, pay or mail early. Please contact your Jones & Roth tax advisor if you have questions about your estimated tax payment.
