I have elderly clients who do not know how to sign up online. It's not user friendly. Shall I tell them to mail their estimated checks as before and see if they get cashed.

I have seen this notice for several years. The software still prints out a Virginia payment voucher and quarterly estimated tax payment vouchers, so I just ignore that -- it's not as if the state is going to reject a payment received by mail.

Almost all of my clients pay online, but I have not heard of any problems with payments by mail.

Not everyone owns a computer or mobile device, they have to have some kind of waiver for this type of requirement.

I'm now finishing an estate income tax return which owes $250K federal taxes (41% rate). Widower of the deceased insists on sending a check. If it gets lost on its way to the 18th of April, I dread to think what the penalty will be. I will tell him to send it certified mail. To Virginia -- I don't even know what address to send it to. Anyone from Virginia can tell me please? Address is not in the software that I could find. So I was thinking of sending the money with the extension voucher instead.

No way you could talk him into making it directly on the VA website, with you assistance? Id be afraid they wouldn't accept a check that large.
