Penalties

Late filing or inaccurate reporting may lead to penalties and substantial fines on any unpaid balances. Familiarize yourself with the penalty structure since the IRS calculates the penalties based on how late you file your tax return and the amount of unpaid tax as of the original payment due date (not the extension due date).

For amounts not properly or timely deposited, the penalty rates are:
Penality Rates Deposits
2% Deposits made 1 to 5 days late
5% Deposits made 6 to 15 days late
10% Deposits made 16 days or more late, but on or before the 10th day after the date of the first notice we sent you asking for the tax you owe
10% Deposits made to an unauthorized financial institution, or payments made directly to the IRS, or paid with your tax return
10% Amounts subject to electronic deposit requirements but not deposited using EFTPS
15% Amounts still unpaid more than 10 days after the date of the first notice the IRS sent asking for the tax due or the day on which you receive notice and demand for immediate payment, whichever is earlier
