How to Pay Oregon Taxes?

If you are a resident, you can use the state’s free fillable forms to file your return electronically. This option performs basic calculations and is ideal for taxpayers who do not need help preparing their returns. Those who need help filing their Oregon returns can use the IRS’s Direct File program. To make an Oregon State Tax payment, you will need your account number (located in the upper right corner of your statement), social security number, and payment amount. The payment must be made by November 15 to qualify for any discount available and avoid interest on the past due portion of your tax.

Alternatively, you can make an Oregon tax payment online with your credit or debit card by visiting the Oregon Revenue Online site. Select the “Make a Payment” option, then choose either “Pay now with checking or savings” or “Pay now with credit or debit card”. Please note that there is a convenience fee for this service. This fee is based on the total amount of your payment.
