You didn't specifically say what you want to do, but based on the title of this thread and assuming your question is the same, here's how to navigate in the desktop version to figure 2022 estimated Federal taxes.
- In Home and Business, click the Personal tab (in other editions Federal Taxes tab.)
- Then subtab: Other Tax Situations.
- Scroll way down to Other Tax Forms.
- Choose topic Form W-4 and Estimated Taxes.
- First screen asks if you want to figure a change in the withholding on your W-4. Answer yes or no, depending on your needs.
- If you said no (or after the W-4 interview if you chose that), the next screen will likely ask: Do you want to prepare estimated taxes for 2022?
- If so, choose "Prepare now" and keep following the prompts.
- It will show some figures under "Review Your Estimates" and ask if you want to adjust your income or deductions. If you say "Yes", then it will take you through a detailed questionnaire to figure your 2022 estimated tax where you can customize it. At the end of that questionnaire, it asks you which method you want to use to calculate the 2022 estimated tax.
- It will then ask if you want to print vouchers or not. Yes or no.
- Continue until you completely finish that topic.
State and local estimated taxes for 2022 can be figured somewhere in your state/local interview--likely near the end of the state/local interviews as you finish up those returns.
If you wish, we can tell you how to pay each quarter's Federal estimated taxes electronically without the need for paper vouchers, payment mailings, etc. if you want to use IRS Direct Pay or the Treasury's EFTPS payment system. Both are free payment systems that use ACH payments directly from your bank account.
