Failure-to-pay penalty

An IRS fee imposed when you do not pay owed taxes by the due date of your federal tax return. The IRS can apply both the late-payment penalty and the late-filing penalty, though in that case the late-filing penalty is reduced. For details, see the related information on the IRS website.
