1. IRS statement on delay in processing some electronic payments The IRS is aware of a delay in processing some electronic payments and that some taxpayers are receiving IRS notices indicating a balance due even though payments were made timely. Taxpayers who paid tax reported due on their tax return electronically may see payments on their accounts as pending, although the IRS has received payment through their banking institution.
