I forgot to send my payment with my taxes today! What do I do?

My CPA said they would just bill me, but didnt know or care if there was a penalty. It was the state that I owed. Missouri. Should I mail it tonight before midnight, or wait until tomorrow, or wait for a bill??? Is this a reason to be concerned?

    Send the money using Form 1040V:

    Most likely if you don't send it they will send you a bill. That's what happened to me last year. They billed me and i returned the payment. But if you're really worried then just mail it out ASAP. The late fee will apply if you don't pay when they send you the bill and time goes by after getting a second notice.

    Mail it separately. If you wait until they bill you, they'll charge you interest. It's not much, but could add up if you owe a lot.
