Alabama residents and nonresidents who owe state income tax have several payment options when filing their individual income tax returns.

Payment Methods

  • Check or Money Order: Payments must be made by check or money order payable to the “Alabama Department of Revenue.” Include your social security number, daytime telephone number, and the form name (e.g., “2025 Form 40,” or “2025 Form 40NR”) on the payment. Submit the payment along with Form 40V.
  • Electronic Payment (e-check): Free option available through MyAlabamaTaxes.gov. Log in to your My Alabama Tax (MAT) account or visit www.myalabamataxes.alabama.gov, click “Make a Payment,” and complete the required information.
  • Debit/Credit Card: Available through MyAlabamaTaxes.gov, but a convenience fee applies. Follow the same steps as for e-checks.

Important Notes

  • Form 40V is specifically designed for Alabama individual income tax payments and cannot be used for other types of tax payments.
  • For nonresidents (Form 40NR), the same payment rules apply, including the requirement to include Form 40V with your payment.
