Quarterly Payment Penalty

You might be able to eliminate it or at least reduce it.  You can annualize your income and payments.  You can go to Federal Taxes tab or Personal tab, under Other Tax Situations and select Start by the Underpayment Penalties. You will answer a series of questions that may reduce or eliminate the penalty. Or you can elect to have the IRS figure the penalty for you.  It's from 2210.

Hello, @7evin337557 !

Great work making quarterly estimated payments and keeping track of income for your business!

Can you give more details on the penalty?  Is it an underpayment penalty?  For federal or state?

Look forward to answering your question!

Hi There:

Theoretically there should be no penalty if you are making timely estimated tax payments, (which is calculating your tax liability and and making a timely and appropriate payment).  If you are already doing this, then it might be a situation of  employing the annualized installment method to avoid estimated tax penalties.  In the below link see annualized installment method.
