Estimate taxes 2025 Increase Social Security

I e-filed my 2024 taxes on 3/1/25.  Since then, my wife received a large social security payment in a lump sum due to the Social Security Fairness Act passing.  It was paid out in late March for 2024 and 2025 monies due her.  She is also going to receive a substantial monthly increase going forward in her social security payments.  I had already printed out vouchers from before when I e-filed for paying quarterly amounts.   How and what do I amend to increase the voucher payments to the Federal Gov't?  I do not have to worry about the state of Massachusetts, since they do not tax social security payments.  My tax obligation was around $1200 in 2024 to the Federal, but this year the tax due would be in the neighborhood of $2200 from my calculations.

    You can make changes and print new vouchers in TurboTax:

    2. Navigate to the 1040-ES section:
      • TurboTax Online/Mobile: Go to 1040-ES.
      • TurboTax Desktop: Search for 1040-es and select the Jump to link.
    3. Answer No to the question Do you want to change your W-4 withholdings for 2025?
    4. Answer any questions until you get to the Print Vouchers? screen.
    5. Answer Yes and we'll include your 1040-ES payment vouchers when you print a copy of your return later.

    Will the program allow me to type in the estimated values I came up with?
