How do I start my 2018 quarterly tax return?

There is no quarterly tax return.

You can pay estimated taxes by quarter using IRS Form 1040-ES mailed to the IRS with your estimated tax payment.

Or you can use the IRS website for tax payments - https://www.irs.gov/payments

Go to this IRS website for a Form 1040-ES and use the worksheets for estimating the quarterly payments - https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040es.pdf

Or see this TurboTax support FAQ for estimated tax payments - https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/2584228-can-turbotax-calculate-next-year-s-federal-estimated-taxes

Note - You will need the TurboTax online edition of Deluxe or higher for calculating estimated tax payments.
