2024 Household Employer & estimated payroll taxes

Hello,

I made quarterly payroll tax payment for 2024 Household Employer, Form H. Do I enter that amount on my 1040 form Line 26- 2024 Estimated tax payments?

No. If you are an employer of a household employee (such as nanny, housekeeper, etc) , you should not include their payroll taxes as federal estimated payment on your personal tax return.

The amount that belongs on line 26 is the total of your 2023 overpayment and federal estimated tax payments you made for your own personal taxes.
