TRD continues to offer Refund Express and electronic payment services to
taxpayers and tax professionals who use Fed/State electronic filing and TRD online
filing. Refund Express and electronic payment services allow tax return filers to
electronically deposit refunds into a taxpayer’s checking or savings account, or
make tax payments directly from a taxpayer’s checking account. By using the e-
check option, the taxpayer can choose the payment date.
NOTE: A payment made to TRD through the Fed/State program must come from a
checking account. New Mexico TRD cannot accept a payment for tax due from a
savings account.
Qualifying as an E-File Provider
Before e-filing with the IRS, tax preparation firms must apply for IRS authorization
as an IRS e-file provider. Apply as early as possible to make sure you are approved
in time for January 1, 2016. No additional application form or application process is
necessary for approval to file a New Mexico PIT return through the IRS approved
Fed/State software program.
After receiving acceptance by the IRS, the tax professional, ERO, or transmitter is
automatically accepted to file a New Mexico PIT return through the Fed/State
program. However, you must make sure the software you use is approved for
Fed/State filing by New Mexico.
