Self employment quarterly estimated tax payments

I saw on another post that if we filed using your product for 2020, that we were sent the vouchers for estimated tax quarterly payments.

we can/should use these to make quarterly payments for this current 2021 tax year- am I correct in my understanding?

Yes. If you prepared and filed your 2020 tax returns with TurboTax, and had an outstanding tax balance due, then TurboTax automatically generates four quarterly 1040-ES vouchers with your printout. You are not required to make estimated tax payments -- we suggest doing so, however, in order for you to avoid potential underpayment of tax penalties for the 2021 tax year.
