Payment Options for Individual Income Tax

To make paying taxes more convenient and hassle-free, the Office of Tax and Revenue (OTR) allows the use of:

ACH Debit (Electronic Check)
Credit/Debit Cards
Mail
Direct Debit

OTR will receive the electronic transaction from the vendor and apply it to the taxpayer's account. The District's third-party payment vendor will charge taxpayers a nominal fee for the credit/debit card transaction based on 2.5 percent of the transaction amount.
