West Virginia offers several payment options for individual income taxes, including electronic and mailed payments. Taxpayers can make payments through the West Virginia Tax Division’s MyTaxes portal, by ACH credit, ACH debit, credit card, or check or money order. Taxpayers who owe tax and choose to mail a payment may use Form IT-140V (Payment Voucher) as applicable.

Payment Methods

  • ACH Credit: Taxpayers can initiate an electronic funds transfer through their financial institution. Taxpayers subject to West Virginia’s electronic payment requirements should follow the Tax Division’s EFT procedures.
  • ACH Debit: Taxpayers can authorize payment directly from a checking or savings account through the West Virginia Tax Division’s MyTaxes portal.
  • Credit Cards: West Virginia accepts major credit cards for individual income tax payments through its authorized payment service. A convenience fee applies to credit-card payments.
  • Check or Money Order: Taxpayers who mail a payment should follow the instructions on Form IT-140V. Do not send cash. Make checks or money orders payable as directed on the applicable payment voucher and include the required taxpayer and payment information.

Mail Payment Instructions

  • If mailing a payment with Form IT-140V, send the payment voucher and payment to the address specified in the applicable IT-140V instructions:

    West Virginia State Tax Department
    Tax Account Administration Division
    P.O. Box 11385
    Charleston, WV 25339-1385

  • Enter the required information on Form IT-140V, including the taxpayer’s Social Security number, first four letters of the last name, and payment amount.
  • The mailing address for an IT-140V payment voucher should not be confused with the mailing address for a balance-due Form IT-140 return.

Estimated Tax Payments

  • Use Form IT-140ESI to calculate and make West Virginia estimated individual income tax payments based on expected taxable income and tax liability.
  • Estimated tax payments are generally made in four installments.
  • If the taxpayer files the West Virginia income tax return and pays the remaining balance due by January 31 of the following year, the taxpayer is not required to make the fourth-quarter estimated tax payment.
  • If the taxpayer's estimated tax calculations show that sufficient tax has already been paid and an overpayment is expected to result in a refund when the annual return is filed, an additional fourth-quarter estimated payment may not be required.
