There is no penalty for sending a check. Our locality returns the check, but the state mailbox receives the checks and deposits them. The address prints right on the voucher above the amount of the payment:

Department of Taxation, P.O. Box 1478, Richmond, VA 23218-1478

[The details box did not open (yet again), so I did not elaborate.] Elderly folks who do not use the internet, some of our hinter area is not yet connected. ELS VA says she does it for her clients - can you elaborate how you go about paying their bills. What's a good link on VA website? Could any brokerage withhold on the dividends and send it to Virginia? If they send checks, will they not be cashed?

You can get them to authorize you as their tax preparer. It is on line so may have to do it with them at your office. Then pay their estimated tax payments on line through the normal va tax payment process. I only do this for a few who are unable to pay on line. Normally elderly as well.

Doesn't ProSeries allow you to set up the payments for direct debit when you efile the return?
