Question - for those of us logging into the client's EFTPS will we have an issue as we're not the taxpayer?


I didn't see an answer in this post......  Is there an answer to this.

I read about this last week on the EFTPS home page when I was making clients payments  but I've been busy with yesterdays deadline - didn't have time to worry about a new process for EFTPS. 


Denise,

My (very limited) understanding is that both login.gov and id.me require multi-factor authentication.  So if you're with the client (or on the phone with them) and they can read you the code you can probably still proceed.  I would pick a few clients and try to log in on Thu/Fri of this week and see what happens.  Better to find out now than when it's mission-critical (with penalty exposure).  I'm mostly out of the payroll business so I met with my two small corp clients today to get things done before the "upgrade".
