PayUSATax lets you pay your taxes using a debit card for a flat fee of only $3.49 . This means that you could theoretically pay $100,000 in taxes and earn 100,000 miles or points for only $3.49 a terrific deal!
I recently made two estimated tax payments rome day tours of $10 before the June 15 deadline, as a test, with the Bank of America Alaska Airlines Visa debit card and the MasterCard rome day tours debit card which earns Delta miles using PayUSATax.
As always, this was my personal experience, and your experience rome day tours could be different! View from the Wing points out that the bank which issues the Delta airlines rome day tours debit card recently failed the Fed stress test and they may be issuing points earning debit cards as a way to attract deposits.
Note that there are limits on the number of payments you can make with PayUSATax, but you may be able to make more payments via telephone. My Delta mile earning debit card had a limit of $35,000 per day, but won t be testing rome day tours if that is really enforced, because of the absence of $35,000 in my Suntrust account.
But is it worth it to earn Delta miles even if they are close to free? View from the Wing debated The Points Guy at Frequent Traveler University in April, so refer to this summary to see if earning Delta miles makes sense for you!

rome day tours @emily Per the terms, you have to be a resident of a certain state, but folks who don t live in the covered states have been able to get the card via an online application or chat. The card has a $75 annual fee and a $12 monthly fee for balances less than $3,000. More details here.
I think it should rome day tours be pointed out that we still don t know what abuse of SunTrust rome day tours will do. They very well could shut someone down who makes estimated payments for thousands and thousands just to get refunds.
I made estimated payments of about $4000 with this card last week. (Yes, I m aware I made the payments about a month late). I won t see my points until early August, but my account is still in good standing with SunTrust.
But isn t there a fee from the PayUSAtax to use this service? So, you have to take that into account. At least that is how it is with a credit card. I used this last quarter and felt like I was still ahead but there was the Visa charge plus the PayUSAtax charge.
Another easy way to earn miles with this account (which I recently opened under this promotion) is to pay your recurrent monthly payments, such as mortgage, that cannot easily be made with credit cards. I was paying my mortgage through chargesmart but the fees were too high. I also switched my car loan (also being paid by chargesmart but with high fees) to Suntrust. In order to get the miles the payments have to be recurrent (set it up to pay monthly). $12 monthly for Suntrust sure beats the $50+ I was paying chargesmart..
@THEsocalledfan Good point! I m not suggesting using this to overpay taxes and to then claim a refund. Not only do you have to make an interest rome day tours free loan, but you run the risk of audits from the IRS and the bank.
Update I paid my estimates with the Suntrust debit last week. I was surprised that the Delta miles posted yesterday. I received points for the amount of my taxes AND the $3.49 fee. The $3.49 fee (for federal) was the only cost.
I overpay constantly especially rome day tours in the beginning of the year so I don t get nailed with some horrific penalty and interest rome day tours charge. I adjust at the end of the year. The IRS will be more than happy to have your money longer. I have no clue where you are getting this overpayment triggering an audit when in fact everything I ve read about it indicates just the opposite. Granted if you owe 10K and you overpay 100K you might raise some eyebrows if your income history cannot support paying that. Put it this way, if you owed 80K in taxes and overpaid 20-30K they aren t going to blink.
