πŸ“’ Important Update for Trustees

A new federal rule now requires all IRS tax payments - including trust & estate payments - to be made electronically starting September 30, 2025.

To avoid delays or penalties for the 2025 filing season:

βœ… Make sure the trust has a bank or investment account that allows electronic transfers

βœ… Enroll in EFTPS (the IRS electronic payment system) by December 31, 2025

🏷️ Trustees will need an EFTPS PIN, which is mailed - so don’t wait!

If you need help with setup, the FLS team is here to assist. Please contact Amy Lamp at [email protected] for assistance or more information!
