PAYMENT METHODS
Internet filers have the option of making EFT (electronic funds transfer) payments by ACH Debit. Payment can also be made by check or money order.
Important Information Regarding International Banks
When entering your banking information, you will be required to indicate if your financial institution is
located outside the United States or its territories. Maine Revenue Service cannot accept electronic payments
from international banks. If the financial institution you have chosen is an international bank, you will be
required to either pay by check or choose another financial institution to make payment.
- Making payment by ACH Debit method. By entering the routing and bank account numbers for a non-consumer bank account in the appropriate screen of the Internet application, you authorize Maine Revenue Services to withdraw the amount you specify from that bank account for deposit to a State of Maine bank account. The bank will allow the State of Maine to transfer the amount due from your account to the State of Maine bank account on the settlement date (or on the next business day if the settlement date falls on a weekend or holiday).
Choosing an ACH Debit Settlement Date
When making payment by ACH Debit method EFT, you must provide a settlement date.
For payments made on or after the return due date, the settlement date must be today's date.
For payments made before the return due date, you may enter a settlement date up to and including the due date.
- Provided you are not required to remit electronic payments, you can choose to pay by check or money order. If you select this method, please print out the Internet Payment Voucher and mail it in with your check or money order. This voucher tells us which account and period the payment should be applied to.
