I understand estimated tax payments for a given year (January to December) may be made up to January 15 of the following calendar year.
I made an estimated payment for year 2024, on January 2, 2025. For estimated tax payments that I made during 2024 they are reflected on the IRS site as "Type: Estimated Tax Payment". The payment I made on January 2, 2025 is reflected on the IRS site as "Type: Balance Payment".
Looking for some insight as to how I should interpret or treat the January 2, 2025 payment. I have not yet filed my year 2024 income taxes. May I include the January 2, 2025 payment amount with all other estimated payments that I made in 2024 for year 2024.
