I currently will not owe any taxes in 2023. However I do have Solar energy tax credits left over from last year and in order to use them I will need to create taxable income. Last year I converted money from my Traditional IRA to my Roth IRA. The taxes generated were paid by part of my solar energy tax credit and the estimated tax payments that I made were refunded. If I do not make any estimated payments this year and do a Roth conversion using my solar energy tax credits to pay my 2023 taxes, will not having made any estimated taxes in 2023 cause me problems with the IRS? I made estimated tax payments last year (before I purchased the solar electric system late in the year) because I planned to make a Roth conversion prior to purchasing the solar electric system.
