calculate 2022 taxes for new retiree

Hi. I retired Jan 14, 2022. I'm trying to estimate 2022 taxes but when I use the IRS tool it says I can't use it because I'm not employed any longer (it's only for employed). Does Turbotax have a tool I can use? Or do you have another recommendation? Thanks.

Yes, that should be fine. Please note that it is only an estimate.

Congratulations on your retirement!!

I used that but it's asking me for 2021 info and not 2022. I put in 2022 info/estimates but is the result accurate since it's asking me for 2021 info?

Thanks! Another question: I'm enrolled in healthcare.gov and using that for our health insurance. I'm receiving subsidies based on our 2022 estimated income. I'm assuming when I do my 2022 taxes next year Turbo Tax will ask me about our 2022 actual income, compare it against what we paid in premiums based on the estimated income I submitted and reconcile (we paid too much or too little in premiums), right?
