I have already filed my 2018 taxes, now for 2019 I need to submit my estimated taxes. TurboTax is fixated on my 2018 taxes. How can I skip 2018 and get to 2019?

You can use 2018 TurboTax to calculate your Estimates for 2019.  You will have the option to include any changes in income or deductions that you anticipate for 2019.

To do so, please follow these instructions:

  • With your tax return open, search for 1040-es (be sure to include the dash) and select the “Jump to” link.
  • Answer "Yes or No" to the question "Do you want to change your W-4 withholdings for 2019?"
  • On the next screen, Review Your Estimates, select "Review Now". Answer the questions about things like your 2019 filing status, income, and deductions.  
  • Eventually, you'll come to the "Print Vouchers?" screen. Answer "Yes" so your 2019 1040-ES payment vouchers can be printed.

Please comment below if you need further clarification.

Are you using the Online Self Employed version or the Desktop Home & Business program?  Estimates are in both.

You can just type W4 in the search box at the top of your return , click on Find. Then Click on Jump To and it will take you to the estimated tax payments section. Say no to changing your W-4 and the next screen will start the estimated taxes section.
