Hello,

I e-filed a personal tax return for a client (owes tax). Moments after e-filing, I realized that the client wanted to use a different bank account to pay her taxes. She tried to move funds to the account before the IRS would process, but unfortunately the IRS already tried to deduct the taxes from her bank account and there weren't sufficient funds. The money was still being transferred over from her savings account (it takes 3 - 5 days).

My question is: What should I do at this point now that the IRS has tried to deduct from that account and failed? She transferred the money back to her savings account (the account she originally wanted to pay from). Should I wait until she received a notice from the IRS for insufficient funds? Should I have the client and make a manual one-time payment on IRS online?

Thank you!
