Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Sorry the question was worded clumsily due to my annoyance (at myself combined with Turbotax).
I had prepared my taxes over a month ago in Turbotax when the first rush of Tax forms were delivered in the mail. Because of a windfall on Dec 24th, TT calculated a penalty due since I had not made quarterly payments and the windfall put me quite a ways over the 110% prior year's taxes in my 2020 withholding from my fulltime job.
When I logged in last night, TT had my taxes due calculated but there's no reference to a Form 2210 irregular payments. I thought that maybe the penalty would be rendered by Turbotax after payment for some reason (TT mentions that some additional fees may be paid after tax refund/payment is made and I thought this might be one of them). I had also noted a month ago that the sooner I paid my taxes, the less the penalty would be (TT asked what date I would pay by, I put in Feb 28th and it gave me one value, I put in March 15th and it gave me a higher value for the penalty so I had it in mind that I needed to pay sooner than later to minimize the penalty.
So, I paid my taxes via e-File. Once I did that I'm basically locked out of looking at my tax calculations again. I guess I'd gotten used to the Windows version of TT and thought it was the same.. you could go back in afterwards and make changes to what if other scenarios for a possible re-file/amended return.
I don't know if I made an incorrect entry before exiting a month ago which wiped the penalty calculation but there is no form 2210 in my current TT return. Is there some way to get back in and re-calculate to figure this out? The "Amended Return" button showed today after the IRS accepted the e-File but it says that Amended Returns are not available until March 25th. Am I stuck?
TIA.
