Enroll in the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS)

Enrolling in the IRS' Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS) allows you to review and pay federal taxes online or by phone. 

If you are a new business that indicated a likely federal tax deposit liability when applying for your EIN, you were automatically pre-enrolled in the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System. You should have received a letter with your four-digit EFTPS PIN after applying for your EIN. If you did not receive this PIN letter, call EFTPS directly at 1.800.555.4477.

If your business was not pre-enrolled, enroll on the EFTPS website. Before you enroll, have the following business information ready:

  • Employer Identification Number
  • Banking account number and routing number
  • Address and name as they appear on your IRS tax documents

To enroll in the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS): 

  1. Open the EFTPS website at https://www.eftps.gov/eftps/
  2. Select Enroll.
  3. Review the information, then click the checkbox to accept the Privacy Act and Paperwork Reduction Act.
  4. Select Enroll me as a Business. 
  5. Enter the requested information, then click Review.

You'll receive your PIN and enrollment number in the mail within 5 to 7 days after submitting your enrollment. When you receive your PIN, call EFTPS at 1.800.982.3526 to get a temporary Internet password. When you first log in to your EFTPS account, you are prompted to update the temporary password.

Wave will never request your EFTPS PIN or password.
