Get your taxes done using TurboTax
"If I don't pay these on a quarterly basis will the estimated tax be apart of my 2024 tax bill?"
It would be part of your 2024 tax bill if you actually had to pay that much tax for 2024. But based on what you said, you will not have to pay that much tax. The 1040-ES vouchers do not get added into your 2024 tax. Your 2024 tax bill will be based on only your actual 2024 income.
"I'm a little confused on why I would have estimated taxes for 2024."
TurboTax calculates the estimated tax for 2024 based on your 2023 income. It assumes that you will have the same income in 2024. Since you had an unusual jump in income in 2023, that made the estimates for 2024 much higher. TurboTax didn't know that you would not have that same high income in 2024, so it produced the vouchers.
If you had gone through the "Review Your Estimates" topic in TurboTax you would have been able to give it your own estimates of your 2024 income, but apparently you didn't do that. The solution now, as others have suggested, is to just ignore the vouchers. Forget about them.
