Thank you - this is helpful! Here’s a collection w up question. Can I ask for a waiver of any penalty I may gave due to the unexpected windfall I received (VSIP/retirement incentive) and my lump sum unused annual leave payout (which covered pay periods extending into 2026 but all paid out in October 2025? (There is an option to fill in the explanation for a penalty waiver request in TurboTax). Note that I I made quarterly estimated payments throughout 2026 but could not have anticipated the federal employment retirement push that occurred in 2025 when the year began. I retired on September 30, 2025.
thank you!
