According to the IRS, you can still avoid any underpayment penalty by paying in 100% of your prior year liability:&nbsp;<A href="https://www.irs.gov/payments/underpayment-of-estimated-tax-by-individuals-penalty#:~:text=Avoid%20a%20Penalty&amp;text=You%20may%20avoid%20the%20Underpayment,year%2C%20whichever%20amount%20is%20less." target="_self">Underpayment of Estimated Tax by Individuals Penalty</A>&nbsp;As long as you pay the balance due by April 15 of 2023, there should be no additional penalty. You may want to check the state regulations regarding state penalties based on your state of residency.&nbsp;</P> Wed, 27 Jul 2022 16:44:49 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/re-avoiding-underpayment-penalty-after-sale-of-home/01/2759171#M1001513 carolineb 2022-07-27T16:44:49Z
