It occured to me that we can pay our US federal income tax using our credit card. And the website notes that all payments will be coded as retail purchase not cash advance. And we would not incur cash advance fees.
Have anyone looked into doing this to get miles? And maybe over paying your estimated taxes by ALOT and getting it all back in a few months while earning miles/points?
you can find out more at

Problem is they charge a 2.5% (approx.) fee for the convenience of using your card. Not a good deal, in my opinion.
