I had some taxable gambling winnings in 2022 so I owe taxes for it. But why is it saying I need to send in vouches with $800 quarterly in 2023? What is this? I've never done estimated tax payments before so I don't understand why I need to now. Without the gambling winnings, I would have gotten a refund.

They don't get sent to the IRS with your return so they won't be expecting them. If you are receiving a refund or low tax due and Turbo Tax prepared the vouchers then your tax liability was probably reduced by credits. They might have printed out if you got a one time large income this year like if you took a IRA or 401k distribution. You can ignore them if you want. They are just a suggestion.</P> Sun, 05 Feb 2023 00:43:58 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/re-why-do-i-have-an-estimate-payments-to-make-for-next-year-s-return-with-a-schedule-and-it-saying-i/01/2859576#M1043075 VolvoGirl 2023-02-05T00:43:58Z https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/re-why-do-i-have-an-estimate-payments-to-make-for-next-year-s-return-with-a-schedule-and-it-saying-i/01/2859719#M1043148 <P>They definitely need to make that more clear.</P><P>Also, TT is <EM>supposed</EM> to be intuitive.
