Next years prepay

Last year I would have received a refund, but I was contacted by a previous company that I worked for and was offered a retirement buyout. I opted to take the buyout and of course owed taxes on it. When I printed my taxes some of the forms (coupons) were for prepayment on taxes that would owe next year. This year should be back to normal with what I make and should expect a refund. What should I do with these forms?

You mean the 1040ES vouchers?  If you do not expect to owe over $1000 when you file your 2020 return, just pitch them.  You are not required to pay estimated quarterly taxes.  If you think you will owe a lot, it is good to use them to avoid an underpayment penalty.
