I paid 4 equal estimated tax payments on time by each estimated tax payment due date for 2017 estimated tax payments.
Each payment exceeded 1/4 of my total tax liability for 2016.
Therefore I do not owe any underpayment penalty on my 2017 tax return
Note however, that each payment was less than 90% of 1/4 of my total 2017 taxes liability.
I know I don’t owe any penalty, but my question is whether or not I need to file form 2210 and if so what parts of it.
I don’t think I am supposed to check Box A. of Part II form 2210 am I? I am not requesting a waiver of the penalty because there isn’t any penalty.
I don't think this Box applies to my situation and therefore I don't need to file any part of form 2210.
I hate leaving the penalty amount box "empty" and letting the IRS calculate what I already know is no penalty. But I think this is what I am technically supposed to do with the above facts.
Is this correct?
