How to file quarterly

Can someone give me step by step instructions for how to file my taxes quarterly? I just started a 1099 position in August. I just need the practical step by step instructions if that's possible! Thanks!

Hi Mikayla Bugh,

 

Thanks for participating today!

 

You may send estimated tax payments with Form 1040-ES by mail, or you can pay online, by phone or from your mobile device using the IRS2Go app. You can also make your estimated tax payments through your online account, where you can see your payment history and other tax records.

Go to IRS.gov/account. Visit IRS.gov/payments to view all the options.

 

Using the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS) is the easiest way for individuals as well as businesses to pay federal taxes. Make ALL of your federal tax payments including federal tax deposits (FTDs), installment agreement and estimated tax payments using EFTPS. If it’s easier to pay your estimated taxes weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, etc. you can, as long as you’ve paid enough in by the end of the quarter. Using EFTPS, you can access a history of your payments, so you know how much and when you made your estimated tax payments.

 

Here is an article for you:
