IRS electronic deduction of 1st quarter 2021 estimated tax payment

[ramledray]

Two clients in the past week have found the IRS has not electronically collected their 1st quarter 2021 estimated payments that were authorized when their 2020 tax return was e-filed.  Is the IRS that far behind?  Have your clients had the same issue?  What corrective actions have you taken?

"Call IRS e-file Payment Services 24/7 at 1-888-353-4537 to inquire about or cancel your payment, but please wait 7 to 10 days after your return was accepted before calling." 

Have the client call to verify that they are enrolled and how to fix. https://www.irs.gov/payments/pay-taxes-by-electronic-funds-withdrawal
