Today I received a 2025 1040es and a 2024 1040v in the mail. I am not self employed so have no idea what these are for and what to do with them? Where would I even find any information? I went on to my irs account and see no information there either.  I file jointly with my spouse and am a W2 employee. Thanks

The IRS may have sent them as a courtesy if you had a balance due in a previous year.  You are in no way required to use these forms and can shred them if you don't need or want them.

 

2024 Form 1040-V would be used if you are mailing a payment to the IRS for your 2024 Tax Return.

 

2025 Form 1040-ES would be used if you are mailing the IRS payments towards your 2025 Tax Return.

Thank you.  Never had a balance due so just seemed odd. I can just ignore? It isnt mandatory to submit? I wouldn't even know what to put on..

Thank you

Like RachelW33 said, you are not required to use these and you can ignore them.
