This is not starting out very well; PayGov service does not respond when trying to pay for the Form 1. I keep getting "Try again later".
PayGov service not available.

Quick story about PayGov.com
In 2020 I paid the annual US Coast Guard User Fee ($300) via paygov.com like I always had in the past.
About 6 months later I get a check in the mail for $300 from Dept of Treasury. I called and emailed for months before I finally got an reply. They blamed the mix up on a paygov software update during COVID and said I would get another invoice.
I did get one for CY 2021 which I paid via check and USPS.
I got one for CY 2022 which I paid via check and USPS.
I never did get one for CY 2020.
I called and emailed asking about - finally got someone to answer. They said paygov.com indicated it was paid. I explained that it was paid but that they refunded it. The lady flat out said they were having all sorts of problems with paygov.com crediting payments to the correct accounts.
A few weeks ago I got a notice from a collection agency for the CY 2020 fee which I had already paid once and had them refund it and never billed me again. They now want $500 and change for the $300 fee.
Still trying to straighten it out.
I am sticking to old fashioned checks and USPS Priority mail from now on.

I've had that happen as well. Went back later and it went right through.
Still not working as of this moment.
Ugh - apparently a browser blocked pop-up issue. I think I have it now.
Don't block pop-ups from eforms.atf.gov
