No problem hopefully this resolves the loop with the IRS.
Re the 2025 ES, that's probably TT defaulting to paying 100/110% of 2024 tax and you do not have to follow that if not correct, if your AGI was over 150k due to the distributions it will be 110% of 2024 but you only need to pay 90% of 2025 tax during the year so that could be a big difference. If you go thru the interview in Other Tax Situations/Form W4 and Estimated Tax you can provide 2025 estimates and see if it gives a different answer, if you are on TT desktop there is an associated "Est Tax Options" form which has the calculations. You can also use the same process for 2025 that you did in 2024 and pay ES when you do the conversions rather than quarterly, and then file 2210 AI method again.
