Paying state taxes in NC
If you have a bank account you can pay the NC state taxes online for free. No need to mail anything. The link for paying the D-400V form online is at the bottom of this page on the NC Department of Revenue page:
http://www.dor.state.nc.us/electronic/d400v.html
You can also pay this way with a credit/debit card, but they will charge a small fee ($2, which would double your payment and you don't want that).
If you are dead set on mailing a check, I think this is the form you want:

What happens if you can't pay your taxes?
If you don't have the money to pay your tax bill, you can ask the IRS for a short-term extension of up to 120 days or request a payment plan that will allow you to spread out the debt over months or years. You may also apply for an offer in compromise, but the odds of approval are not good. If you can prove financial hardship, you may be able to qualify for "currently not collectible status" and avoid having to pay until your circumstances improve.
