I've only used turbotax annually. Can I log into turbotax quarterly to file 1099 taxes? If so, what package do I select?

Filing quarterly means to send in estimated payments to cover the self employment tax since you don't have withholding taken out like if you were an employee on a W2. There isn't a tax return to file. You still file all your self employment on your personal 1040 tax return.
You send in quarterly estimated payments to cover the income tax and self employment tax (FICA). The Self Employment tax (Scheduled SE) is automatically generated if a person has $400 or more of net profit from self-employment. You pay 15.3% SE tax on 92.35% of your Net Profit (If it is greater than $400). The 15.3% self employed SE Tax is to pay both the employer part and employee part of Social Security and Medicare. So you get social security credit for it when you retire.
You must make quarterly estimated tax payments for the current tax year if both of the following apply:
- 1. You expect to owe at least $1,000 in tax for the current tax year, after subtracting your withholding and credits.
- 2. You expect your withholding and credits to be less than the smaller of:
90% of the tax to be shown on your current year’s tax return, or
100% of the tax shown on your prior year’s tax return. (Your prior year tax return must cover all 12 months.)

You do not file quarterly tax returns. You might make estimated quarterly tax payments---but that is not the same thing as filing a tax return.

If you live in a state with a state income tax, you might need to make estimated payments to your state.
Is there a way to send quarterly payments through turbotax? The links go directly to the IRS website @VolvoGirl
No. You have to pay the IRS yourself. Turbo Tax can print out the 1040ES slips for you to send in with a check or you can pay the IRS directly online.
