is it possible that the amount due on Line 37 and the estimated late payment penalty on line 38 were coincidentially the same as the estimated coupons that TT created?
1) Did you review your transcript at the IRS web site?
2) for 2022, does the amount debited fcrom your bank account match what is posted on the transcript?
3) for 2023, can you see the payment posted as an estimate for the 2023 tax year on your 2023 tax transcript at the IRS website? .
I appreciate a number of us are pushing you quite hard but that is because we'd rather all the facts align before you go on a wild goose chase with the IRS. One of the benefits of technology is it does the same task over and over again without variation; it's the humans that cause the variation. It is quite unlikely there is a computer error here (because no human should have touched the transaction as it was sent to the IRS from TT). so let's be sure there isn't a misunderstanding of the facts first.
One more time:
please confirm that what is on Line 37 plus Line 38 matches what was debited from your bank account. And please confirm that the number that was debited was posted to your 2022 tax transcript at the IRS website and NOT the 2023 tax transcript at the same website.
