Cancel or Reschedule a 2019 Income Tax Return Electronic Payment
4/3/2020
If you scheduled an electronic payment for 2019 income taxes to be paid on or before April 15, 2020, your payment will not automatically be rescheduled to July 15, 2020. If you do nothing, the payment will be made on the date you chose.
If the payment has not been processed, you may be able to cancel or reschedule it. You must cancel or reschedule the payment before its scheduled date.
Here is information on how to cancel and reschedule your payment:
If you scheduled a payment through MyTax Illinois (hps://mytax.illinois.gov/), you can login to your account and cancel any pending payment. If you made your payment through the non-login option, you can use Retrieve Saved or Submitted Request (hps://mytax.illinois.gov/?link=RtrReq) to view and withdraw any pending future payment using the email address and confirmation code associated with your payment.
If you scheduled a payment through a credit card or your bank, you must contact your financial institution to stop the payment. (financial institution stop payment fees may apply.)
If you scheduled a payment through a tax professional or using tax preparation software, you may cancel your payment or request the date be changed. You must email us at REV.TaxPay@illinois.gov (mailto:REV.TaxPay@illinois.gov) to make a payment cancellation no later than 11:59 p.m. CT two business days prior to the scheduled payment date and include ALL of the following information:
