The percentages you quote are for regular incomes. Higher incomes have higher withholding requirements so you must fall into that category. Otherwise, wait and see what the IRS does. They also review the return and the forms and make their own calculations. If they have not changed your return within 3 years or less, you can file an amended return to include the 2210. The instructions are on page 2 for the 2210 here.

 

From estimated payments:

Higher income taxpayers. 

If your adjusted gross income (AGI) for 2023 was more than $150,000 ($75,000 if your filing status for 2024 is married filing separately), substitute 110% for 100% in (2b) under General Rule, earlier. This rule doesn’t apply to farmers or fishermen.

 

General Rule In most cases, you must pay estimated tax for 2024 if both of the following apply. 

1. You expect to owe at least $1,000 in tax for 2024, after subtracting your withholding and refundable credits. 

2. You expect your withholding and refundable credits to be less than the smaller of: 

a. 90% of the tax to be shown on your 2024 tax return, or 

b. 100% of the tax shown on your 2023 tax return. Your 2023 tax return must cover all 12 months.
